We Know What’s Best for Your Commercial HVAC
A split-system air conditioner is standard in most commercial businesses with the condensing unit on the roof. The unit can be one large unit or several smaller units attached to an air handler that controls specific zones inside a building.
However, larger buildings and multi-story buildings experience problems with the air conditioning split-system. When running the pipe between the condenser and air handler, the distance limitations or amount of ductwork is exceeded, resulting in unmanageable ducts.
Chilled-Water Commercial Air Conditioning System
Did you know? A chilled-water air conditioning system may be a viable option if you have a larger or multi-story building. The entire system is housed on the roof or behind the building and uses chilled water to dissipate heat from an outside coil. A chilled-water system cools water between 40° and 45°F. The water is then transferred throughout piping in the building and utilized by the air handlers as needed.
If a more extensive system is needed, a cooling tower can be installed, significantly boosting cooling efficiency inside the building. The tower creates a low-temperature stream of water that runs through the heat exchanger to cool the hot coils of the air conditioning unit. A cooling tower will boost energy savings and lower humidity levels in certain applications.
Commercial Cooling Tower Operation
Cooling towers come in several shapes and sizes to accommodate any building, operating similarly:
- The tower blows air through a stream so that some water evaporates.
- The evaporation causes the stream of water to cool.
- The water filters through a thick sheet of plastic mesh.
- The air blowing in hits the mesh at right angles compared to the water flow.
When water is lost due to evaporation, the tower continuously adds water to the system to balance the difference.
