reduce refrigeration loads, you might want to look at hardware that
will improve the efficiency of walk-in coolers - like FreeAire. <br>

This product also has the capability of introducing outdoor air

outdoor air is cold enough.<br>

assuming this is in Michigan. I’d bet on CO<sub>2</sub> ventilation
control (although I’m not sure what the exhaust requirements are). You
may even only need a single CO<sub>2</sub> sensor, although it will
make control system selection a little more interesting. Avoid in-slab
radiant – night setback will be important. An energy recovery unit may
work out as well (~5 year payback?), considering the high occupant
density, cold winters, and humid summers (Michigan makes you appreciate
the blue sky).
