Tom Jenkins

Tom Jenkins, P.E.

Neil Mehltretter

Join Tom Jenkins, P.E., WEF Fellow, as he discusses how the performance of even the most advanced blower or air compressor can be compromised if the installation isn't right. This webinar will provide guidance on equipment room design, identifying critical design considerations and common pitfalls.

Our sponsor speaker is Neil Mehltretter, Technical Director at Kaeser Compressors. His presentation, “Rethink the Compressor Room: Why the Best Strategy May Start Outside Your Plant,” will discuss how traditional centralized compressor rooms often consume valuable floor space, present severe ventilation challenges, and introduce noise or heat issues into production areas. This webinar explores alternative design strategies—including weatherproof outdoor enclosures—that solve layout challenges while protecting equipment, lowering operating costs, and boosting facility efficiency.
