Idelhurst Elementary School

Idelhurst Elementary School Somersworth, NH

Stellos is very proud of the “green” project that took place at Idelhurst Elementary School. The building was designed and built to minimize its carbon footprint and impact on the environment. The school is now considered the “greenest” school in the state. It is now an energy efficient building, saving 277,861 kilowatt hours, resulting in approximately $29,000 in savings annually. Some of the design features that Stellos created include orientation to maximize solar heat gain and daylighting, radiant floor heating with displacement ventilation, demand ventilation and CO2, sun shades and light shelves, and continuous dimming control, variable frequency drives, variable-volume kitchen exhaust and gas-fired condensing boilers.
