We were thrilled to welcome the Harvey Mudd Engineering Clinic team to Aris headquarters.  This talented group has been collaborating with us on the development of our recessed fan-coil product line — a key part of our vision for compact, aesthetic-forward, high-efficiency hydronic comfort.   

The team delivered an insightful presentation sharing their early research, component analysis, and preliminary testing. Their work is already bringing a fresh, analytical perspective to the future of low-voltage, high-performance fan coils.

After the presentation, we toured the Thermal Plant Pod (TPP) test site, where the students saw how modular components, thermal storage, and system controls integrate into a full-scale Aris environment. Seeing the entire ecosystem in action helped connect their design work to real-world constraints and opportunities.

Collaborations like this bring new energy and ideas to the challenges of modern building comfort and electrification. We’re grateful for the team’s curiosity and engagement — and we’re looking forward to supporting their progress throughout the upcoming year.
