Free cooling within air-conditioning systems is a proven method for improving energy efficiency. It makes sense to tap free colder outdoor air to cool the environment inside your building. Free cooling avoids running the compressor while keeping buildings at the right indoor conditions. Whether it’s for a process or comfort, free cooling is more sustainable with lower energy and operating costs.

Learning objectives:

Understand water-side economizing and advantages/disadvantages
Identify the right applications for free cooling
How to comply with energy code requirements
Discover system and control developments that simplify installation and operation
