APSC 261 deals with the \u00E2\u0080\u009Cinterdisciplinary enquiry known as STS\r\n(Science, Technology and Society)\u00E2\u0080\u009D (Paterson, 2014a). In this 3 month course, we spent most of\r\nthe time working on a Sustainability Project, which is the subject of this project report. This\r\nproject is part of UBC\u00E2\u0080\u0099s SEEDS (Social Ecological Economic Development Studies) Program,\r\nwhich facilitates the collaboration of UBC staff, students, and faculty to \u00E2\u0080\u009Caddress real issues\r\npertaining to the sustainable operation of units on the UBC campus\u00E2\u0080\u009D (Paterson, 2014a).\r\nOur group selected and completed an APSC 261 Sustainability Project called \u00E2\u0080\u0098Patio Heaters\u00E2\u0080\u0099 in\r\nthe September 2014 term, working with the Perch Restaurant of the newly constructed Student\r\nUnion Building (UBC SUB). As stated in the UBC SEEDS Project Proposal Form (Paterson,\r\n2014b), the goal of our chosen project was to research and find a more sustainable alternative\r\nheating solution to propane heaters, for purpose of extending the months of operation of the\r\noutdoor patio for the Perch restaurant in the new SUB. During this project, our main contacts\r\nwere Chiyi Tam of AMS Sustainability and David Gill, Seeds Coordinator.\r\nThe Perch restaurant is situated on the top floor of the new SUB and has an outdoor patio that is\r\nsuited for outdoor dining during the summer months. The management has changed its initial\r\nplan to only use the patio in the summer, and wants to open the patio for use during the spring\r\nand fall months, on appropriate days. This involves operating the patio in less-than-ideal\r\nconditions, such as chilly or windy weather, though not when it is raining.\r\nThe baseline heating solution that was initially considered as a heating solution were to use\r\npropane heaters. However, the unsustainable fuel source of this solution conflicts with the UBC\r\nAlma Mater Society\u00E2\u0080\u0099s green branding under which the SUB and the Perch Restaurant falls under.\r\nFurthermore, propane heaters may give off an odor of propane, which decreases user comfort,\r\nanother priority of the restaurant\u00E2\u0080\u0099s stakeholders. The stakeholders stated that they would consider\r\nany option that is presented to them, as long as it is economically, environmentally, and socially\r\nsustainable.\r\nThis project was completed over the period of about 2 months, for an undergraduate university\r\ncourse at the University of British Columbia. Through the UBC SEEDS program, students are\r\ngiven the opportunity to share with the UBC community their research, findings, opinions,\r\nconclusions and recommendations. Thus, it should be kept in mind that this report is a student\r\nproject and not an official document of UBC. Moreover, this reports may not reflect the current\r\nstatus of activities at UBC. For up-to-date\r\ninformation, the UBC SEEDS Coordinator can be\r\ncontacted mentioned in a report or about the current status of the subject matter of a\r\nproject/report. In this investigation, we operated under the accounting framework known as the Triple Bottom\r\nLine (TBL) approach. The TBL approach considers not only the economic impact, but also the\r\nsocial and environmental aspects of a project (Slaper and Hall, 2011). We investigated the\r\nimpacts in each aspect for each of our proposed solutions, and compared them to the traditional\r\npropane patio heaters.\r\nTo conduct this investigation, both primary and secondary sources were required for our\r\nanalysis. To get a sense of existing alternatives to propane heaters, we used internet search\r\nengines (google.com, etc.) to find models and manufacturers\u00E2\u0080\u0099 websites of different heater heating\r\nsolutions. In doing so, we familiarized ourselves with the topic and identified some of the readily\r\navailable market alternatives. We also brainstormed possible questions for the Q&A session with\r\nour stakeholder, Chiyi Tam. Lastly, we gathered data on our UBC peers\u00E2\u0080\u0099 thoughts on the topic\r\nby creating and distributing an online survey. This proved to be a valuable primary source of\r\ninformation for understanding the social aspect of our problem. The results of the survey are\r\ndiscussed in section 3.\r\nAfter analyzing the responses we got from the survey it was clear that not extending the\r\noperation hours of the patio is another option, since the number of people who would use the\r\npatio significantly decreased when the temperature dropped past 10\u00C2\u00B0C. Moreover, if there was a\r\nchance of rain, or it was raining, the number of people interested in eating on the patio also\r\ndecreased. Taking this into account, along with the weather analysis we completed, there was\r\npresents a strong argument of not using patio heaters to extend the lifespan of a patio. In\r\naddition, the survey also confirmed for us that most people would prefer to be heated by an\r\nelectric heater and that sustainability and safety is a key issue to potential customers.\r\nFinally, we did a comprehensive comparison of several models of heaters with different\r\nspecifications, using a TBL assessment that includes economic, social, and environmental factors\r\nthat pointed towards electric (infrared) heaters being one of the best choices.\r\nFrom the data collected our assessment using the TBL framework, along with all of our findings\r\nin the initial research, our final recommendation is to use freestanding electric heaters\u00CD\u00BE there are\r\nseveral commercial models available as viable heating options and good alternatives to propane\r\nheaters. Ultimately, this is because electric heaters provide many benefits over gas and battery\r\npowered options. As showed in the analysis electric infrared heat provides a balance of\r\nflexibility, efficiency, and sustainability not offered by other models. Electric powered heaters\r\nalso require less overall maintenance and setup when compared to either propane or battery\r\npowered options.
