🚧 Project Update from Resource Consulting Engineers! We’re excited to share progress on the City of Ames Auditorium project! 🙌 The new lobby air handler is now in place, and the much larger auditorium unit is being installed right where the old one used to be. These upgraded systems will provide dependable heating, cooling, and ventilation for all the amazing community events that happen in this space throughout the year. Even better? This project includes an air-to-water heat pump designed to ease those peak summer loads—helping the City save energy and stay cool during the hottest Ames days! 🌞❄️ We’re proud to support long-lasting, energy-efficient improvements in our local community. #AmesIowa #HVACUpgrade #CommunityProjects #EnergyEfficiency #AirHandlerInstall #ResourceConsultingEngineers #MechanicalDesign #ProudToSupport

More cooling for St. Cecilia Parish! 🛠️💪 Two weeks ago, St. Cecilia fired up their brand-new sanctuary — and they didn’t just stop at the looks. Oh no. They beefed up the guts, too. Out with the old, in with a new chilled water system that could make the Amazon feel like sweater weather. On a scorcher like today — 85°F, dewpoint 73°F — the folks inside are sittin’ cool and dry, while outside feels like the tropics. That’s 12,000 pounds of metal working together to wrap everyone in a big ol’ blanket of crisp, conditioned air. Arr arr arr! Huge salute to the volunteers at Saint Cecilia Parish, plus @svpa_architects , @woodruffconstructioninc , and Proctor Mechanical — you guys brought the cool to this project! #MorePower #MEP #ChilledWater #EngineeringFun #IowaProjects

Lighting That Inspires At Resource Consulting Engineers, LLC, we know lighting design is about more than just meeting code. It’s about creating spaces that feel right, work beautifully, and leave a lasting impression. These concept renderings highlight a recent design study where we explored how different lighting styles could balance technical needs with the right atmosphere. From color-changing architectural uplights to fine-tuned interior lighting, every detail was modeled, tested, and refined to find that perfect blend of visibility, comfort, and style. We’re proud to work alongside great clients here in the Midwest to turn ideas into spaces that inspire. #LightingDesign #Engineering #Architecture #MEP #DesignInspiration #midwestprojects

🦸‍♂️ They say superheroes don’t wear capes… but at Resource Consulting Engineers, we’ve got something better: anemometers! Armed with our trusty tools, we swoop in to capture airflow and supply air temperature data faster than a speeding diffuser. 💨📏 Then it’s back to the office—where the coffee’s hot and the spreadsheets flow—to analyze the data and help HVAC systems perform at their best. (We love a good mechanical room, no doubt… but let’s be honest, the coffee situation isn’t quite the same ☕🔧) Another MEP adventure in the books. Onward! #EngineerHumor #MEPadventures #NotAllHeroesWearCapes #ResourceConsultingEngineers #HVACnerds #FieldToOffice #DataDrivenDesign
