Healthcare Facility Chiller & Condensing Coil Maintenance - by Randy Simmons As most healthcare facilities and maintenance engineers know, proper maintenance on chiller and condensing units is critical to efficient, trouble free operation. However when you combine the fact that most chillers and condensing units are situated in low traffic locations and out of sight (i.e., behind buildings, hidden behind walls, on rooftops, etc.) with the fact that the coil cleaning portion of the maintenance process is an unpleasant and time consuming task, chiller and condensing unit maintenance isn’t one of those jobs that most maintenance engineers look forward to. In situations where the maintenance department is busy or understaffed, coil cleaning is likely to be deferred beyond the time when maintenance is actually required by the equipment. Hospital Cooling Tower Case Study - by Randy Simmons Whether cooling towers are used for process or environmental cooling, proper tower maintenance is critical for ensuring optimal performance in meeting the cooling demands of the facility or operation. Airborne debris that gets drawn into cooling towers is the single biggest problem contributing to system fouling, reduced performance, downtime and maintenance cost. Cidadas Can Overwelm Your Cooling Towers and Evaporative Condensers - by Randy Simmons Did you ever wonder what insects make that very loud buzzing sound in trees during the daytime in summer? Well, it's a widely heard but rarely seen kind of insect called a cicada. The ones you hear every summer are non-periodical, some of them appearing as adults every year despite requiring several years to develop to adulthood; but the ones appearing as adults in the next few years that can overwhelm your cooling towers, evaporative condensers and air handling units emerge as adults in 17 year intervals in large and generally non-overlapping geographic regions of the northeastern United States. Air Intake Filtration Prevents & Solves Air Intake Problems - by Randy Simmons Today more than ever before, mechanical, maintenance and process engineers are being challenged to provide effective solutions that help to optimize environmental air quality and process cooling efficiency, while reducing downtime and maintenance cost. Process Chillers & Condensing Coil Maintenance - by Randy Simmons As most facilities and maintenance engineers know, proper maintenance on chiller and condensing units is critical to efficient, trouble free operation.
