Aaon Goes 'Outside the Box' in HPAC article

Aaon makes some news in the HPAC Magazine article 'Outside-the-Box' Thinking Produces Outside-the-Building Mechanical Room published in the December 2008 issue.


The article discusses the conversion of an old Apollo Mission facility into a modern printing facility. Great economies were realized by using Aaon LL chillers and air handlers. The LL chillers can be provided with pumps, boilers and accessories to create a full 'mechanical room in a box' that can be shipped to the site, pre-designed and pre-piped. As the article describes:


Recognizing that a different type of solution was called for, Ecogenia, a Montreal-based distributor of HVAC products and controls, specified two 335-ton LL Series chillers from AAON Inc. The LL Series integrates mechanical-room components into a single packaged outdoor unit that includes a heat exchanger, a pumping package, boilers, expansion tanks, controls, and an air-cooled or a high-efficiency evaporatively cooled condenser section. A cooling tower is not required.


Aaon LL chillers can be laid out using the Ecat32 software in just a few minutes, and the installation of an entire mechanical room is a easy as a crane pick and utility connection. This may be just the solution for your next project!
