ARSCO Completes Project to
Abate Sound, Increase Energy Efficiency
and Improve Ventilation

Work was part of the Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky Airport School Sound Insulation Program at Our Lady of Victory Elementary School.

ARSCO completed a fast-track project for a Cincinnati school
that encompassed the main, 3-story Library / Science Building. 

Heating on the campus is by natural gas fired, atmospheric type
hot water boiler.  Heating water is pumped from the boiler room to
the main building by underground piping, where it’s distributed to
unit ventilators, and terminal heating units such as cabinet unit
heaters, fin radiation and convectors.  Ventilation is provided by
unit ventilation classroom units. 

ARSCO engineered and fabricated 157 custom open shelving
bookcase units, for 24 rooms. Units were constructed of mild steel,
with louvers, laminate tops and fillers for wall-to-wall fit. Each was
powder coated for maximum long-term scratch and fade-resistance,
as well as cleanliness, in a custom color. 

The ARSCO ventilation units draw ambient air from the
windows for direct return to the unit ventilators, resulting
in more efficient energy use, and substantial abatement
of outside noise from low flying aircraft approaching
Cincinnati-Northern KY airport.

ARSCO is a leading provider of school sound insulation products,
cabinetry, ventilation shelving, fin tube covers, radiator enclosures
pipe covers and replacement covers for “through the wall”
climate control systems.  We work with architects, contractors and
school administrators to provide highest quality, greatest value,
quick turn-around and expert installation support.
