Features

TLC engineered systems that accurately control temperature and humidity, which is crucial for a facility that houses priceless artwork. Sustainable design features include a domestic hot water system with electric-fired back-up and a solar water heating system that functions as a virtual boiler for the museum’s dehumidification systems, critically important during St. Petersburg’s hot, humid weather.
