AIRIUS Hires Steven Keller as Director of North American Sales
Longmont, CO - August 6, 2008 - AIRIUS has announced the recent hiring of Steven Keller as Director of North American Sales. He brings to AIRIUS more than 20 years of experience with Multinational companies involved in custom-engineered and manufactured products, including custom molding, aerospace, medical, utilities, oil and gas, and telecommunications.
"I am delighted Steve has joined our team, as I have known him professionally for several years and can attest to his strong character and extensive sales and technical experience," said Ray Avedon, president of AIRIUS LLC. "Steve's role as Director of North American Sales is instrumental during our company's growth as our customers continue to experience and appreciate the energy and money-saving value of our core product, the AIRIUS Thermal Equalizer".
Keller received a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration with an emphasis on Marketing and International Business from the University of Colorado, Boulder. He resides with his wife, Glenda, and two grown children in Fort Collins, CO.
The AIRIUS Thermal Equalizer works entirely differently than ducted or large fan-driven air movement systems. The AIRIUS units are suspended near the ceiling where the hot air resides. The average AIRIUS unit uses about the same amount of energy as a 35-watt light bulb.
Unlike a typical ceiling fan that uses high amounts of energy, combined with inefficient propeller technology that blows air outward, the patented AIRIUS Thermal Equalizer units utilize extremely compact, low-wattage, advanced turbine technology that efficiently drives the hot air at the ceiling all the way to the floor where people work. This compact jet stream helps mix air throughout the entire space, creating a balanced temperature (Thermal Equalization), improving the efficiency of the HVAC system, and creating a work environment where people are more comfortable and thus more productive.
ABOUT AIRIUS
AIRIUS LLC is committed to the development of unique, patented Thermal Equalization products. The AIRIUS Thermal Equalizer System generates a significant reduction in energy consumption and greatly reduces heating and cooling energy costs, while at the same time improving comfort levels inside buildings. By eliminating the thermal differential, or stratification, that naturally occurs in buildings as heat (warmed air) rises, a significant reduction in energy consumption is achieved, resulting in considerable savings in energy bills. In addition, HVAC functions are made more efficient. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, destratification is a pr imary step in energy conservation. The AIRIUS method of air destratification is the most cost-effective and efficient destratification product available on the market today, and is a much more viable alternative than ceiling fans and oversized industrial box fans. AIRIUS LLC, along with its parent company, Avedon Engineering, Inc., is housed in the company's 165,000 square-foot design and manufacturing facilities located in Longmont, Colorado.
