Johnson Controls Ducted Systems teams continue to work quickly and efficiently in the fight against the fast-spreading novel COVID-19 pandemic that is severely affecting people across North America and the world.
Providing HVAC for COVID cause
Most recently, the United States Military and local governments combined efforts to build field hospitals to aid local communities in response the global health crisis. The field hospitals use either existing buildings, such as local convention centers or large tents that are erected in open areas such as athletic fields.
HVAC is a critical component to these temporary structures providing comfort to patients in their time of need. In order to meet the demand for the equipment, the Johnson Controls Ducted Systems team in collaboration with the Residential manufacturing facility located in Wichita, Kansas have partnered with the distributor and contractor network to ensure these urgent needs are met.
