Case Study
Fort McMurray International Airport
The performance of EndoTherm was piloted by Fort McMurray International Airport in Northern
Alberta in their Maintenance Building (BLDG 547).
This independently metered, small glycol-dosed system makes an excellent pilot site for further
implementation in the airport’s larger buildings.
International airports pose several unique challenges when it comes to reducing space heating energy consumption in their maintenance buildings.
Maintenance buildings at airports are typically large, open spaces that house a variety of equipment, vehicles, and workstations. These expansive floor plans make it difficult to effectively heat and insulate the entire space, leading to significant heat loss and energy waste.
Airport maintenance facilities house a diverse array of specialized equipment, from aircraft tugs to power tools. This equipment, along with the various maintenance activities performed, creates uneven heating demands and loads that are challenging to manage efficiently.
Many airport maintenance buildings operate on a 24/7 basis to support around-the-clock flight schedules. Maintaining consistent temperature and energy use across all hours of the day is more complex than in facilities with more standard operating hours.

The performance data post EndoTherm installation demonstrates space heating energy savings with no physical changes to the fabric or operation of the airports maintenance building.
During the pilot period the maintenance building at Fort McMurrary International Airport saved 5,200 Kg of CO₂e. This carbon reduction is equivalent to:
