Ballroom Renovation Includes Pyramid Skylights for Healthy, Natural Daylighting.

Dedicated in September, 1953, the Glenn Miller Ballroom is ready for an update to transform it into a beautiful, modern and more efficient facility. The Ballroom is a part of the University Memorial Center at the University of Colorado.

It’s the heart of the UMC.

Bringing natural daylight into the facility with the installation of CPI Daylighting pyramid skylights is one part of the project.

What We Did:

• Working closely with the general contractor regarding scheduling, we supplied and installed two CPI pyramid skylights.

Product Used:

• Two 10′ x 10′ CPI Quadwall Direct2Fab (D2F) pyramid skylights.
• Direct2Fab (formerly Fastrak) is a fast delivery program for custom sized skylights from CPI Daylighting. Each D2F project moves directly from order entry to the fabrication floor— eliminating weeks of engineering and submittal time.

Benefits:

• Correct the daylighting and solar heat levels required for the space.
• Reduce dependence on electric lighting—increase energy savings.
• Increase the facility’s property value.
• The pyramid skylights will bring healthy, natural daylight into the space with soft, translucent light and accurate color rendition.
• No required maintenance or re-coating costs—individual exterior panels  are easily replaced.
• In work environments, increased daylighting has been shown to increase productivity.
• In retail environments, increased daylighting has been shown to increase sales by as much as 40%.
