David is a mechanical engineer with over 15 years experience designing HVAC systems in residential and commercial buildings in New York City and around the world. He is a licensed Professional Engineer in New York as well as a LEED AP and WELL AP.
After New York City passed the Climate Mobilization Act in 2019 to mandate carbon emissions reductions from large buildings, David searched for solutions using existing technologies and concluded that a viable solution didn’t exist for most of the city’s large multifamily buildings.
The urgency of the moment inspired him to think of new approaches and the concept of the Hydronic Shell was born. In May 2020, David founded Hydronic Shell Technologies and is now devoted to the development and implementation of the Hydronic Shell to help transform buildings and communities around the world.
