Evaporative Water Cooler - Water Condensing Unit Is No Swamp Cooler

This unique cooling technology from Freus should not be confused with a swamp cooler. Although water is used to support the cooling, which is sprayed over condensing coils rather than pads.

Cooling water, condensing units and a residential application of 250 tonnes of split system chillers already commercial buildings. Think of this technology as a mini-cooler for private purposes.

Evaporation of fresh water for the split system air conditioners have a number ofAdvantages over air-cooled equipment. Water removes heat from the condenser coils far more efficient air. This reduces the temperature of the compressed refrigerant R-22, which in turn reduces the workload of the scroll compressor. Not only that, the last compressor much longer, there is only a minimal loss of cooling when the outside temperature exceeds 100 degrees.

Typical air cooled units can lose up to 25% of their efficiency, whileTemperature.


How can you save with a water-cooled condensing unit?

Charles Mullin, a casino worker who lives in North Las Vegas is also unique. So every bill comes from his lone paycheck. That's why he turned on the air conditioner condensing units from 1,500 square foot home on a water cooled.

"Before I installed, I had to set my thermostat at 75-78 degrees to try to keep my electricity bill down," he said. "I tested the new system with 65Degrees - felt like a meat locker. My bill came to $ 86. This represents approximately a 45 percent savings and the house should be cooler. "

Mullin told all his friends for the units and the savings he has seen. Freus calculated the system will pay for itself in about two years.

Richard Waite, president of Hal Mechanical, installation of water-cooled AC Mr. Mullin said, are specifically made for the climate of the desert.

"The only extra that needed to exchange an old air conditionerUnit of water cooled to a new water line to run it. The device is equipped with an automated system, similar to a cistern to hold water capacity correct. The flushing system, partly to prevent calcium build-up. "

The performance is almost constant, varying the size of the capacitor is not necessary because of climatic zones, such as air-cooled equipment. The Freus is the same way as an air-condenser mounted and has the unique ability to air multiple service operators. Thisoffers the space saving convenience of housing two or three compressors (up to 10 tons in total) in a single enclosure.

Jim Kilby of Green Valley, a casino management professor, replaced his 10-year-old air conditioners, 5 tons and a 3-ton water-cooled with two more or less the same capacity. He expects that his electricity bill has fallen by one third.

"The hotels have used this technology for years," said Kilby. "If you think that water is a better job of coolingthe air that air. It just makes sense. "

If you evaporative water coolers or water cooled condensing units, of which, the mini version of the 250 ton chiller is sure to revolutionize the cooling of the desert.
