Chiller plants are facilities that produce chilled water for air conditioning and industrial processes. They use refrigeration cycles to remove heat from water, which is then circulated through buildings to maintain a comfortable temperature. Chiller plants can vary in size and complexity, depending on the cooling needs of the facility they serve. These plants typically consist of several key components, including chillers, pumps, and cooling towers. Chillers are the main units that cool the water, while pumps circulate the chilled water throughout the system. Cooling towers help dissipate heat from the system, ensuring efficient operation and energy use.
