HVAC System
Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) equipment perform heating and/or cooling for residential, commercial or industrial buildings. The HVAC system may also be responsible for providing fresh outdoor air to dilute interior airborne contaminants such as odors from occupants, volatile organic compounds (VOC’s) emitted from interior furnishings, chemicals used for cleaning, etc.
An air conditioner cools and dehumidifies the air as is passes over a cold coil surface. The indoor coil is an air-to-liquid heat exchanger with rows of tubes that pass the liquid through the coil. Finned surfaces connected to these tubes increase the overall surface area of the cold surface thereby increasing the heat transfer characteristics between the air passing over the coil and liquid passing through the coil. The type of liquid used depends on the system selected.
Window air-conditioning System
To help a window unit run more efficiently, look for a model equipped with insulating panels. "Most new window ACs come with panels you place over the plastic adjustable side panels to boost efficiency. Adding weather stripping around the perimeter will also prevent air from leaking in or out. Below, grouped alphabetically by the size room they can cool, are some of CR's top-performing window air conditioners.
All of the window air conditioners in Consumer Reports' latest tests do a good enough job at keeping you cool. What distinguishes one window unit from another is how quickly and quietly it cools a room—and how easy it is to operate.
Split air-conditioner System
A split air conditioner consists of two main parts: the outdoor unit and the indoor unit. The outdoor unit is installed on or near the wall outside of the room or space that you wish to cool. The unit houses the compressor, condenser coil and the expansion coil or capillary tubing. The sleek-looking indoor unit contains the cooling coil, a long blower and an air filter
This kind of air conditioner system has many advantages over traditional air conditioners. Perhaps the most obvious benefit is the quiet performance of a split air conditioner system.
Central air-conditioning system
The most common type of central air conditioning is the split system, which features a large boxy condenser outside the home, and a fan-and-coil system inside, connected by pipes carrying refrigerant. The air is distributed through ductwork. However, not every home can accommodate the ductwork needed to install central air. Split ductless systems are an option for those homes because, as the name indicates, they don’t require ductwor.
The refrigerant cools the air, dehumidifying it in the process; a blower circulates air through ducts throughout the house.
Packaged air-conditioner system
In these packaged air conditions the condenser is cooled by the water. The condenser is of shell and tube type, with refrigerant flowing along the tube side and the cooling water flowing along the shell side. The water has to be supplied continuously in these systems to maintain functioning of the air conditioning system. This whole packaged air conditioning unit externally looks like a box with the control panel located externally.
All the components of this package AC are assembled at the factory site. The gas charging is also done at the factory thus one does not have to perform the complicated operations of the laying the piping, evacuation, gas charging, and leak testing at the site.
Cooling Tower System
Cooling Tower Systems has manufactured cooling tower lines and related equipment for over 40 years, with five different models in production- one to meet every need for businesses of all sizes. We are the oldest, full service fiberglass cooling tower manufacturer in business today. All CTS cooling towers are designed, engineered and tested by our own factory research and development laboratory. Our towers are second to none in quality and energy efficiency, and produce a lower total cost of ownership than any comparable cooling tower solutions.
A cooling tower is a specialized heat exchanger in which air and water are brought into direct contact with each other in order to reduce the water's temperature.
VRV System
The PARI INFRASTRUCTURE VRV system is a multi-split type air conditioner for commercial buildings that uses variable refrigerant flow control developed by PARI INFRASTRUCTURE to provide customers with the ability to maintain individual zone control in each room and floor of a building.This is the standard model for heating and cooling/cooling only.
VRV systems enable individual climate control settings for each zone to provide the utmost in comfort to commercial building settings.
Ventilation System
The design of the Tornado enables the ventilator to be activated by natural convection from the inside of the building and also allows it to be assisted by the wind outside. Wind creates a flow of air through the throat of the Tornado to enhance extraction. Ventilation Systems from FDS aid the safe escape of occupants’ and allow adequate access for firefighters.
A lack of ventilation will result in slow growth and poor overall crop performance. Things like mold and pests are often attributed to a lack of ventilation.
Scrubber Unit
An air scrubber is a device that is used to remove particles, gases, or chemicals from the air within a given area. While most air filtration systems of this type are designed to handle only one of these types of pollutants, there are a few industrial air cleaners that will handle two and even all three contaminants. Most scrubbers are configured to complete at least six cycles of operation each hour, helping to keep the air in the space free of any type of contamination.
The effective fumes control of the right scrubber significantly reduces exposure to gases that over time could have a detrimental impact on the health of anyone working in the area.
