Morgan/Harbour completes construction of 41,000-square-foot industrial facility in Chicago suburb

Morgan/Harbour Construction recently completed the construction of a 41,100-square-foot headquarters facility for ThermFlo, Inc. and its sister company, Zonatherm Products, Inc., in Buffalo Grove, Illinois.

ThermFlo is a 24-hour service and construction company with engineering design and CAD capabilities. It employs union pipe fitters, electricians, sheet metal workers and riggers.

ThermFlo, Inc. selected Morgan/Harbour as its contractor to build its new office and warehouse facility after outgrowing its previous location in Wheeling, Illinois. Situated on 4.3 acres at 875 Busch Parkway in the Corporate Grove Industrial Park, the facility features an open-concept office with ergonomic workstations, private executive offices, conferencing spaces, seminar room, full-glass product showroom, town hall lunchroom, precast walls, 20-foot clear height warehouse, two exterior docks, two drive-in doors and 136 parking stalls.

A roof-top mounted photovoltaic system was installed using solar panels, which generates electrical power to off-set peak consumption loads. In addition to lowering energy costs, this system provides added value as an energy source with positive environmental impact, as it generates no pollution or greenhouse gas emissions.

Morgan/Harbour’s construction team was led by project executive Brian Smith, project manager Rich Cassidy and project superintendent Scott Guerra. Ware Malcomb of Oak Brook, Illinois, provided the architectural services. ThermFlo’s grand opening celebration was held May 21.
