Town of Henrietta is upgrading the air conditioning system at the Library building. The current air conditioning system dates back to when the Library building was first constructed in the 1970's. In June of 2009 the town commissioned an energy efficiency study of the Library's air conditioning system. According to the study, the town could potentially save 70,000 kWh and 1,500 Therms of energy annually by replacing the existing outdated system with a modern and much more energy efficient system. The anticipated savings equals to 26% of the Library's 12-month electricity and natural gas utility cost.

The town will use Federal Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) funds to help pay for the cost of the air conditioning upgrade. Additionally, the savings of the new air conditioning system is expected to also qualify the town for additional $8,000 of rebates from the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA).
