Air handler #3 after completion installation.
Air handler #3 after completion installation.

The installation of a museum-quality HVAC system will enable the rehabilitated former Armory historic property to house Nobles County Historical Society’s operations. One of the most critical capacities of an effective museum is being able to preserve its collected artifacts in order to interpret the county’s history for future generations. The HVAC installation for the museum's primary basement storage space should ensure that these artifacts can be maintained and safeguarded for the long term. This would enable NCHS to fulfill its established mission -- “to collect, preserve and interpret the history of Nobles County” for generations to come.
