We are happy to announce that Arrow has been honoured with the ASHRAE Technology Award for its innovative conception and design of the ATCO Gas North Operations Building in Edmonton, AB. Under the leadership of Paul Burdett, Principal and Senior Project Manager, Mechanical, Arrow has had the privilege to work on this unique and dynamic project, proving its commitment to sustainable, creative design that promotes green building management and increased energy efficiency and conservation.

This design implements a natural gas absorption heat pump geothermal system.  The technology behind this is still relatively new to North America, and presently, the North Edmonton Operating Centre is the largest building in Canada to use this method. In using this system, the amount of natural gas required to heat the building is reduced and the carbon dioxide emissions released into the atmosphere are also diminished.

The ASHRAE Technology Awards program recognizes, on an international scale, successful applications of innovation design, which incorporate ASHRAE standards for effective energy management, indoor air quality, and exceptional mechanical design.

Arrow is proud to receive this award and recognizes Paul Burdett as a leader in the mechanical building design industry.

Having benefited from long time membership in ASHRAE and the local Northern Alberta Chapter, we are excited to give back and support ASHRAE learning opportunities in our Edmonton community. Arrow generously donated a TV door prize and in addition, was a room sponsor for ASHRAE NAC’s Mechanical Extravaganza. This comprehensive event featured various technical sessions, speakers, panel discussions, and an industry tradeshow. We are proud to be a contributor to the success of this dynamic experience and ASHRAE NAC.

Less than two short years after the inception of Arrow’s Saskatoon branch, we were pleased to honour our clients and celebrate our joint success during a recent Open House. With over 100 in attendance throughout the event, it is clear that Arrow’s team members have successfully established themselves in the community and throughout Saskatchewan as a leading provider of consulting engineering services. Developing trusted relationships with our clients and working synergistically to achieve common goals, we have quickly grown through referrals and word of mouth. We value our clients and are pleased to contribute to their success.

Our Saskatoon office is flourishing as we continue to exceed expectations; stay tuned for further news regarding the expansion of the Saskatoon team, as well as our future office relocation.

Being committed to sustainable practices, sharing knowledge, and further education, Arrow is excited to sponsor the visual displays for NAIT’s Alternative Energy Centre showing vital information related to current climatic conditions and lab equipment performance. “Purchasing the 3D Tvs required for NAIT’s displays allows seamless transfer of data throughout the building and is another small way we can take further responsibility in being a part of a solution in sustainable, renewable energy resources; an area which will affect every person”, says President of Arrow, Greg Burghardt.

Arrow is honoured by the privilege to be a team member and partner with NAIT for the design and program development of this avant-garde learning facility. We applaud NAIT’s leadership, forward-thinking, and commitment in developing leading-edge, renewable alternative sources of energy and we are proud of our involvement, bringing this innovative learning centre to our community.

In the words of Gary Lamphier, Edmonton Journal, “large companies get lots of media attention, small ones usually don’t.” But the case is not true for Arrow Engineering Inc. with a front page news story in The Edmonton Journal.

As stated by Mr. Lamphier, “we have an impressive portfolio and revenues to match” and we’re proud to be recognized as one of the true unsung success stories of Edmonton.
