How do dirt and air get into our HVAC water loops? Watch this 60-second short to find out!

Air in the system reduces the efficiency of the heat transfer process, as it acts as an insulator, preventing the chilled water from reaching its desired temperature. This reduces cooling capacity, longer running times, and increased energy consumption. 2. Air in the system can cause blockages and reduce the flow of chilled water, which can cause uneven cooling and potentially damage the HVAC equipment. 3. Air in the system can cause noise and vibrations, which can be disruptive and reduce the comfort levels of the building occupants. Air in the system can lead to corrosion and damage to the piping and other components of the HVAC system over time. 4. To prevent these issues, HVAC systems typically include air vents, air separators, and other devices to remove air from the chilled water loop and maintain the system’s optimal performance and efficiency.
