BOMA – Building Owners and Manager’s Association Trade Show

Friday, May 28th, 2010

This international trade show features building improvements, materials, green construction and innovative products and services related to commercial buildings. Energy Film will be featuring its performance and privacy window films.

Our performance film uses Nanoparticle technology to reduce solar heat gain in summer, retain warmth in winter, reduce harmful UV rays and balance interior room temperatures. It is easily applied and removed without damaging windows.

Privacy films are an elegant solution to giving windows a colorless etched or textured glass look at a fraction of the cost. They apply without adhesives and can be quickly removed and replaced with alternative designs. The films can be trimmed to create any design your imagination can come up with.

We would love to have you stop by and say “Hi”! We will be in booth # 856 in the Green Pavillion- June 28th~ 29th, 2010.

Hope to see you there!

It is a closed loop system that exchanges the cool water from the depths of nearby Cayuga Lake, and expels the warm water into the shallow waters of the same lake. The water is drawn through an intake that comes from water about 2 miles out in water that is 250 feet deep, and the intake sits about 10 feet from the bottom of the lake where the temperature is about 39ºF year round.
