MAUs are units meant to supply conditioned air, whose temperature and humidity is completely controlled, into a building, in order to replace the air that has been removed by the exhaust systems or by combustion. Their main function is that they bring fresh outside air through their ventilation heating or cooling equipment, rather than recycling or recirculating the already existent one.

VFDs use an AC motor to control pumps and fans in a system without using valves and dampers. VFDs can create the same energy flow without the high pressure and power needed to adjust flow.

Last week, we said farewell to Jesus Ornelas with a plaque of appreciation and lunch at Taqueria Tlaquepaque surrounded by his friends. After 18 years of hard work and leadership in our labor department Jesus will surely be missed. Jesus is one of the guys who make Therma feel like family. Congratulations on your well-deserved retirement!
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! Therma's elves have been busying decorating our cafe and office.

Therma has been sponsoring Kids Bike Lane (KBL) for over a decade. KBL is a non-profit organization that partners with charities, shelters, police departments, and schools to provide new bikes and helmets for under-served youth in the Bay Area. This year, 35 Therma employees and their families joined over 200 other volunteers to build 700 bikes that were donated to charities in Alameda and Contra Costa counties. In addition to the bike build event,
KBL also hosts 2 free bike repair clinics each year.
They are currently collecting bikes to bring to the victims of the Camp fire disaster in Northern California. If you'd like to donate to their cause or learn more about their mission, check out their website.
Let's get this party started right?! with our Start-Up & Commissioning team...
Making the final transition from construction completion to operation is the crowning point of all projects. At Therma, we are not satisfied with our projects until we have completed thorough systems checks and rigorous performance testing. Using the best practice implementation tools and proven procedures, we ensure that the facility is safe, reliable, and in top operational condition for your satisfaction.
By taking advantage of our onsite sheet metal shop, cleanroom and skid manufacturing capabilities we are able to build validated biotech skids from start to finish without ever leaving our facility. Efficiency at its best!
