Carrier Commercial Saves Energy for School District

The Fontana Unified School District is saving thousands of dollars in energy costs annually and has improved the classroom environment thanks to Carrier’s installation of 201 high-efficiency WeatherExpert 48/50LC roof top units (RTUs) at four different schools. With the project currently at the midway point, the district is saving approximately $210,000 in energy costs – an amount that’s expected to double when another 200 rooftop systems are installed next summer. Carrier, a world leader in high-technology heating, air-conditioning and refrigeration solutions, is a part of UTC Climate, Controls & Security, a unit of United Technologies Corp. (NYSE: UTX).

“This project has been profoundly rewarding for the Carrier team and serves as a reminder of how important our work can be. Not only were we able to improve the environment for thousands of students and their teachers, but these systems are also saving the school district money, which it plans to reallocate to academics,” said Chris Opie, director, North America Commercial Marketing.
