Author(s) : AVERY G., RISHEL J. B.
Type of article: Article
Summary
Balance valves allow adjustment of constant flow chilled water, but they can decrease efficiency in contemporary systems with variable volume, variable speed chilled water systems. This article argues against installing these valves because of increased energy costs along with additional piping needed.
