McLaren Central Michigan Hospital required a new cooling tower to remedy a tremendous loss of water due to drift and cycles of concentration. In addition to reducing the drift losses, the new solution needed to provide water and electricity savings.

The RL Deppmann team worked with the building owner, design engineer, and the installing contractor to install 4S firetube boilers with Webster Buners, which were selected to fit within the building owners’ needs for better healthcare experience.

An upgrade to the cooling system at Ferris State University’s Science Complex with a new chilled water system resulted in improvements to daily operations and significant savings in maintenance and chemical treatment.

People depend on hospitals to be ready at all times for any type of medical need. This presents a challenge when replacing key infrastructure equipment in a working hospital. The R. L.

The owner of Notre Dame College, Tom Meeks was in search of replacement parts for an old pump. After digging through the archives, representative Chris Durfee discovered the part was from 1954!  More importantly, everyone realized how quality, consistency in design and product longevity created a solution that’s lasted for generations.

Third Man Records was looking for a hassle-free steaming and cooling system that was energy efficient and quiet, in addition, to have the capacity for a future expansion. The Deppmann team was able to find a solution with limited time and budget constraints.

The owner and engineer for the Little Caesars Arena were looking for a variable speed pressure booster system that could respond to both very low demand times as well as very high plumbing demands during events. 

In 2014, St. Mary’s Parish Council wrestled with choices for their replacement boiler. Several members of the parish who worked in or retired from the HVAC industry showed interest in condensing boilers.

In April of 1960, Deppmann sold two Bell and Gossett U4 Universal pumps for installation in the current Telluride Association’s Telluride House. The time had come to replace the pumps and it was important to select the right replacement model.

United Shore Professional Baseball League was building a new ballpark in Utica, Michigan, at the site of a former town dump. The plumbing challenges included providing hot water in the park and elevator pit water removal. The timeline was very tight and there was no room for error.

The new 85,000 square foot Gull Road Criminal Justice Facility (GRCJF) in Kalamazoo, MI, was completed in January 2016. They needed a water heating system capable of meeting the facility’s demands and turned to R.L. Deppmann for the right solution.

The University of Toledo Honors Academic Village had an extreme mechanical space limitation for their water heaters. They turned to Deppmann who provided a tankless solution to meet the space requirements. In addition, the solution is saving energy and operating cost.

The Cuyahoga County Convention Center Hotel (CCCCH) was selected as the site for the 2016 GOP National Convention.This project, which has a tight timeline and unmovable due date, presented several construction challenges. Read on to see how the R. L. Deppmann team rose to the occasion to provide hydronic, steam and condensate consulting and equipment for this nationally visible project.

The Detroit Medical Center is located in midtown Detroit, Michigan. The project engineer, Harley Ellis Devereaux, and plumbing contractor, Ben Washington and Sons, chose R. L. Deppmann Company and Cemline series SSH water heaters to solve several issues.

When the city of Westland, Michigan, looked for a turnkey HVAC renovation, they looked to Johnson Controls Inc. Johnson wanted the best propylene glycol solution installed in the system while keeping their labor and material costs to a minimum. They found the solution with R. L. Deppmann glycol installation services.

With one of the old pumps failing in the hydronic heating system, The College of Wooster was ready for better efficiency, lower energy bills, and more reliability. The obvious replacement product was a Bell and Gossett, Xylem, Ecocirc-XL inline pump
