Husman Hall

Husman Hall received a major mechanical and architectural renovation during the summer of 2015.

Mechanical improvements will result in energy savings. An energy recovery ventilator which was added, utilizes the temperature of the building exhaust air to temper outside air being brought into the building, and all heating/air conditioning units were replaced with new high efficiency units.

Fire alarm systems were upgraded to meet current codes, with smoke detectors in every living space and mass notification capabilities.

The building also uses less energy for lighting. Living quarters now have low energy use LED light fixtures. Common spaces have occupancy sensors for lights.

The architectural improvements included new finishes and furniture throughout public areas, and a complete makeover of the lounges and Recreation Room.

All students' suite entry doors have been improved with convenient all-card access hardware. Lounges, restrooms, and two entire suites have been redesigned to provide full wheelchair accessibility.
