Location: Chillicothe, Ohio
Challenge:
When it comes to providing cooling, no industry such as paper mills is more susceptible to environmental factors such as temperature, water, and humidity. The Glatfelter Paper Mill located in Ohio was faced with a dilemma; they needed to provide cooling where the harsh conditions of acidic water used in the papermaking process. Consequently, these conditions would be detrimental to any HVAC equipment currently on the market.
Solution:
United CoolAir was able to modify a water-cooled 10 Ton VertiCool Classic to meet the requirements of this industrial use. Special components such as cupro-nickel coaxial condenser coils; CPVC water piping; sea duty water regulating valves and clean-out tees were all used to alter the unit for the plant environment and solve the cooling needs of the facility.
