Prime Time for Cooling Retrofits

With the impending cooler weather creeping upon us day-by-day, condominiums are prepping for changeover to heating. This is a prime time to consider the retrofit of the existing cooling tower to be controlled via Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs). After change-over has occurred, the cooling tower sits idle for several months until mid-spring, when changeover back to cooling takes place.

During this time VFDs, can be intertwined with the cooling tower without any effects on residents due to the cooling tower being dormant. A cooling tower operates off, low, or high to maintain the proper condenser water temperature. The fan motor is sized for the maximum load. A variable frequency drive can instead be used to exactly match the condenser load, saving energy in the process.
