Parallel Chiller System https://lnkd.in/dJHVCey8 Parallel chiller systems are a common HVAC design choice for redundancy and improved part load performance. In these systems, two or more chillers are connected in parallel and chilled water is circulated through both chillers to the load and back. Constant flow systems are simpler to design, however variable flow systems can offer significant pump work savings. Variable flow systems also resolve the issue of chiller sequencing that can occur with constant flow. #HVAC #ChillerSystems #ParallelChillers #VariableFlow

Water-based cooling systems, also known as hydronic cooling systems, are a type of heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system that use water to transfer heat from one location to another.

Trane, an Ireland-based heating technology manufacturer, has unveiled the game-changing Thermafit Model MAS, an air-source heat pump designed for commercial and industrial buildings. This all-in-one, modular multi-pipe system features advanced logic to independently control each module's operation—cooling, heating, or heat recovery. The Thermafit Model MAS can cool buildings like a chiller, heat them like a heat pump, or provide simultaneous heating and cooling through heat recovery. With an impressive energy efficiency rating of 8.2 times more than traditional electric heating, it adapts to varying building loads throughout the day and year. Key features: 🔹Uses R-454B refrigerant. 🔸30-ton size per module; up to 10 modules can combine for 300 tons. 🔹Achieves hot water temperatures up to 60°C. 🔸Vapor injection extends compressor operation for 54.4°C water at -17.8°C outdoor temperatures. 🔹Three heat exchangers and electronically controlled valves for versatile refrigerant flow. 🔸True redundancy with modular design ensures continuous operation and an advanced defrost algorithm enhances heating performance. Trane's Thermafit is not just a heat pump—it's a leap towards a sustainable, efficient, and reliable heating solution for commercial buildings.

As electricity prices outpace inflation, many families and businesses are increasingly focusing on energy efficiency in their heating and cooling options to save money. So flexible cooling solutions like ductless mini-split air conditioners have become popular. #hvac #ac #minisplitac

Electric Heating Systems https://lnkd.in/dSqasWhX Electric Heating Systems are a great way to heat your home or business. They are efficient, cost-effective, and reliable. Electric Heating Systems come in a variety of types, including Baseboard Convectors, Electric Furnaces, Electric Plenum Heaters, and Radiant Electric Heating. Each type of system has its own unique advantages and disadvantages, and it is important to consider all of them when deciding which system is right for you. Electric Heating Systems require regular maintenance and repair to ensure they are operating correctly and efficiently. #ElectricHeatingSystems #BaseboardConvectors #ElectricFurnaces #ElectricPlenumHeaters #RadiantElectricHeating #ElectricHeatingRepairs #Maintenance

A really good testimonial from a contractor I know personallly, and know to be one who prides himself on quality work, and rightfully so. How do you feel we as an industry (manufacturers and contractors) need to approach re-educating ourselves, and consumers, that an AC system is a “healthy comfort system” not just a “cooling or heating appliance”??? The home is an ecosystem in which all components must work together toward creating a healthy and efficient environment.

PSA Public Service Announcement What is #BetterHVAC and why does Texcellent Heating & Cooling LLC have a commitment to the movement? #BetterHVAC is dedicated to cultivating a consistent standard of high quality within our Craft and urges Professional Contractors to utilize "best practices" and continue to learn / adapt to the ever-changing technology and nuances of our Trade. We've always felt like this was the only way to operate and will continue to operate in this capacity. Unfortunately though, we see time and time again, poor practice, poor service, and profits over people being the "norm". This short rant is meant to be educational for anyone who is doing their due diligence in choosing a contractor to hire for service, maintenance, repair, or new installations. Please do your homework and make sure that your contractor "knows their stuff" and don't fall victim to the "business as usual mentality". We recently had a potential client reach out for an estimate to proactively replace the >20 year old system in their 1973 built 1,537 Sq ft. Home. We went out for a site evaluation and performed a preliminary block heat load calculation on the home. The results are posted below, determining the sizing necessary to properly cool / dehumidify the space. We proposed a very economical option, including a $1,000.00 rebate / $800.00 senior citizen discount / complimentary 2 years of maintenance, according to our findings and shared all options available, including maintenance / repair of their existing system to prolong life. Unfortunately, the client decided to go with another local company, but not because our price was higher, or that our value proposition was lower, but because they were going to go with a "4 Ton" unit. Which is grossly oversized for the home and duct system. We advised them, even not being awarded the business, to have them fully evaluate their capacity measurements and urge them to install a properly sized system. Their "bigger is better" mentality won, despite the second chance they were give. As HVAC professionals, it's our duty to educate potential consumers about proper system design and sizing and perform our work according to best standards and practices. This client is now stuck with an oversized system, an undersized duct system, higher energy bills, a home w/ higher humidity, discomfort, and now having to go through the hassle of finding a remedy shortly after spending thousands of dollars to a "reputable company" who she trusted to do her a good service. This potential client is in her early 90's and is having to go through this. Please help spread the word of #BetterHVAC and do your due diligence when selecting the Contractor that you do business with.
