BrightSense
Independent residential HVAC design for all-electric homes using heat pumps, hydronics and balanced fresh-air ventilation.
What they're known for
BrightSense separates mechanical-system design from installation bids and provided the mechanical design for Louisville's Passive House Classic-certified rebuild.
BrightSense LLC designs residential heating, cooling and fresh-air systems around an enclosure's actual loads rather than simply selecting replacement HVAC equipment. Its services include cold-climate air-to-water and geothermal heat pumps, radiant-floor distribution plans and balanced energy-recovery ventilation. The architect credits BrightSense with mechanical design for the certified Louisville Passive House, a Marshall Fire rebuild with prefabricated high-insulation panels. It also supports ARCTIC hydronic heat-pump systems.
