Building Owners Save Money, Save the Earth—Replace Your CFC Air Conditioning Chiller
Even though chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are no longer produced in the United States, there are still approximately 38,000 CFC-using chillers still in place throughout the U.S. The benefits of replacing these chillers—which are often inefficient—are many.
A new publication, "Building Owners Save Money, Save the Earth—Replace Your CFC Air Conditioner Chiller," cites compelling reasons—both financial and environmental—why owners should act now. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) produced the publication in cooperation with a wide range of industry partners, including ARI. The brochure is available for free here.
The publication reaches beyond just "replacing the chiller," by explaining integrated chiller retrofits, which can pay for themselves in as little as two or three years with a typical return on investment of 20%-35%. "Building energy consumption can be significantly reduced at the time of chiller replacement through cooling system improvements (e.g., use of variable-speed drives on fans and pumps, improved cooling towers, evaporative coolers, and improved controls) and cooling load reductions (e.g. lighting system retrofits, better insulation and new windows). Reducing cooling load and improving system efficiency will enable downsizing of the new chiller, thereby cutting capital cost and increasing overall operating efficiency," according to the publication.
Other associations that partnered on the publication include Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA), and the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE). Supporting organizations include national governments and regional authorities, chiller suppliers, air conditioning equipment manufacturers, energy and supply companies and industry and environmental non-governmental organizations.
