Chillers and Towers

The chiller standard will need to be adopted more on a state-by-state basis, making it highly unlikely it will be evident throughout the country by 2015.

The Series 1500 cooling tower’s Extreme Efficiency (XE) models are at least two times more efficient than the minimum requirements established in ASHRAE 90.1 and further reduce the unit’s operating cost, the company said. 

The new AGZ-E family of air-cooled scroll chillers are ideal for use in small to midsized buildings, as well as critical facilities, like elementary schools, data centers, and hospitals. 

Chillit Chillers manufactures specialty chillers and geothermal heat pumps for large commercial and industrial applications. 

Star Refrigeration Group announced that it has launched a new United States subsidiary, Azane Inc., to manufacture and supply its “low-charge ammonia” technology in the U.S. The company developed the technology to meet the challenges that the HVACR industry was facing as Europe started the phaseout of R-22 refrigerant.

Enterprising companies and contractors are striving to lessen the burden of this expense by optimizing chiller systems to achieve greater efficiency.

Manufacturers are on a quest to create more efficient equipment than ever before, and they're urging contractors to stay up to date on the latest technology.

Because the recommendation is only for end-of-life replacement, the hope is that implementing this technology will result in a gradual greening of chillers across GSA’s facilities. 

WaterFurnace Renewable Energy Inc. announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire the assets and technology of Chillit Chillers, Goshen, Indiana, a manufacturer of specialty chillers and geothermal heat pumps for large commercial and industrial applications.

It’s time again for the Commercial Cooling Showcase. The NEWS’ annual issue has traditionally introduced the latest air conditioning units available for the upcoming summer season. The intent is to help contractors prepare for this busy period by doing the research that will help them distinguish between brands.
