Air + Water Cooled Chillers
Cool Choices for Your Building
The technicians at Burkholder’s HVAC have installed both air cooled chillers and water cooled chillers in a variety of commercial buildings, depending upon the cooling requirements. While air cooled chillers do not require cooling towers or water pumps, some argue that a water cooled chiller offers better performance. We will help you decide which solution is best for your business.
For small to medium applications where space is limited, air cooled chillers offer efficient cooling with a very small footprint. However, that does not mean that large plants with greater cooling requirements are limited to using water cooled chillers. While air-cooled systems require ample air circulation because of the compressor’s heat rejection, water-cooled units also have special considerations for installation such as placement and the sheer size of the cooling towers. At Burkholder’s HVAC, we will work with you to determine the best option to support your needs. We have expert installers and will even perform maintenance on an existing chiller, whether we installed it or not!

At Burkholder’s HVAC we install and service building automation systems from several manufacturers for any size application.
Whether you are building a new structure and want the latest innovations in HVAC or are renovating an existing building and need to replace outdated systems, a building automation and control system is a great choice. There are many acronyms for these types of system such as:
BAS – Building Automation Systems
BACS – Building Automation and Control Systems
BCS – Building Control Systems
BMS – Building Management Systems
DDC – Direct Digital Control, the communication system used for components to communicate
EMS – Energy Management System, a BACS with an emphasis on energy management
The list goes on and on. Most importantly, these systems allow you to control and monitor components like Heat Pumps, Roof Top Units, Air Handlers, VAV boxes, Fan Coil units, Boilers, Chillers and more. Saving energy is even easier with features like automated lighting control and power monitoring.
Building Automation and Control Systems have changed over the years from pneumatic (air-based) to electronic, using digital control devices (DDC). Most recently, standards have been put in place to provide communication between devices from various manufacturers using the BACnet protocol developed by the American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE).
Burkholder’s HVAC can help you save time, money and energy with a BACS solution. We will even provide service on your current BACS even if we did not install it!
