AACER PowerVent Airflow system. The cool features of this second generation version are: ability to monitor moisture remotely, direct connect into HVAC systems and two sensors that communicate between each other. This patented design features an exclusive under floor detection system that adds security and peace of mind to the owner. Should the humidistat detect an increase in moisture, it triggers fan units to start circulating air through the floor system. This starts before it is noticeable to facility personnel giving them time to address and prevent serious problems from occurring.

College Disc Golf. Disc golf is a great participation sport for people of all ages, but even more so for college students. It’s very inexpensive for students to get the equipment needed to start playing and not nearly as time consuming as the club and ball counterpart. A great disc golf facility is also a huge value to any institution. As disc golf continues to be one of the fastest growing sports in America and across the globe, the investment into acquiring a course is considerably less than many other recreational assets.
