P A G E 2

We’re the one. We are a third generation, family-owned

American company. We started out in 1920

building Firepot Generators and grew into

the leader in high quality advanced hydronic

systems. Our systems are second to none

because we stay close to our customers, we

listen to them, and we build the sophisti-

cated systems that satisfy the need to save

energy, resources, and the environment.

Just as our customers provide us with

valuable input, we in turn support them with

outstanding system design software, training,

field support, and internet communities to

ensure each project’s success from concept

to commissioning. The opening of our new

Innovation and Development Center marks a

milestone in our commitment to training. It

is the most advanced learning facility in the

industry, and it’s all yours.

People make the difference. When you choose Taco, you’re partner-

ing with the most dedicated group of great

people you’ll ever meet; people who truly

want to help you do your best work. You

don’t find that everywhere. That’s why we’re

“I was very impressed with the HSS tool. As for LoadMatch®, I’d use it again!” said design engineer Ray Fischer. The install also included four KV & KS Vertical In-line Pumps, a Taco Plate & Frame Heat Exchanger and a 4900 Series Air Separator. Despite the space limitations, Bob Stiens says it was a “turn-key install.”

“I don’t think you can find a smarter, more efficient mechanical system than the one we’ve installed here.”

Full system payback was achieved within 16 months of commissioning.

Phase two of the retrofit included iWorx. “iWorx is attractive due to the ability to control all the buildings from anywhere there is an internet connection. No matter what kind of HVAC equipment we install in the future, the iWorx system will easily adapt to it.”

Jeff Tannatt, Director of Physical Plant at Williston

Tanque Verde Apartments Tuscon, AZ

“iWorx controls are easy to install and require minimal programming. There was virtually no learning curve when we started using the product. We’ve been looking for a controls platform just like it... Not only is it a great product, but our rep stands behind it entirely.”

Mo Forrey, owner of Oracle Control Systems, Inc. (OCSI).

Phase one of the school retrofit featured installation of the Taco LoadMatch® System. Eliminating control valves realized “big savings” for the school. “Long term, we hope to build additional geothermally heated and cooled dormitories” said Tannatt.

“The old pneumatic controls had been a real problem for the school, so we’re using Taco’s new iWorx control system to bring the building into the next century.”

This installation also utilizes six Taco1900Series pumps that controls six zones, each pressurized by one of Taco’s new ECM, variable-speed Viridian® pumps.

“The LoadMatch® system saved us a lot of labor time and money on materials... Being a young engineer and evaluating the system for the first time, I looked at the design and the data and it all made sense. It turned out to be a great install.”

“Taco Hydronic Systems Solutions® (HSS) software proved to be a great time saver for us. It helped minimize errors, allowed us to check and then guarantee our design with Taco, and to link in associated disciplines such as electrical, plumbing, condensate piping and controls into the system design.”

Tom Baker President ofHurst-Rosche Engineers

Lois Hole Library Edmonton, Canada

“We first used the LoadMatch® system in an Islamic center here in Edmonton. Using the HSS design tool, everything told us it was going to work, and it has since day one. The Lois Hole Library is our second install of the system. I like LoadMatch. For pipe 2-1/2” and above, LoadMatch makes perfect sense.”

“What we appreciated from an installation standpoint, especially on a fast-track project like this one, is the support we received from Taco. All the equipment arrived on site as needed, submittals were received in a timely manner and that permitted us to stay on schedule.”

“Taco’s 4900 Series Air-Dirt Separator works great! Several months after installation the unit was blown down for the first time and three barrels of sand were removed. We perform a weekly blow down of the unit, and we’re still removing sand and dirt each time we do. We’ve been very impressed with the performance of the 4900 Series unit.”

“Troubleshooting the HVAC closed loop system, Taco determined that corrosive iron oxide gunk was fouling the system’scomponents. The clear solution: install two 4900 Series Air and Dirt Separators to eliminate microbubbles, sand, dirt and rust in the system. “As the quality of the system water improved”, says Steve, “the air conditioning improved.”
