What are modular HVAC systems? In what applications are they appropriate? What are the benefits and limitations? This presentation covers all the basics.

1. Modular
HVAC Systems
The Basics

2. What is a
Modular HVAC
System?

3. It’s a system that is
built in a factory,
not at the project site.

4. Factory building prevents delays due
to weather and allows systems to be
built in parallel with other
construction at the project site.

5. Factory built systems can also be
Any issues are found & corrected before delivery,
making start-up & commissioning much easier.
FACTORY TESTED!

6. Systems are designed and
built as modules
so they can be
separated & shipped...

7. then easily reassembled
at the project site.

8. Rooftop.

9. Or anywhere in between.
Basement.

10. Any Type of
HVAC System
Can Be Built
Modular

11. Pumping Systems
Central Chilled Water
Plants

12. Boiler Plants
Heat Transfer Systems

13. Even Geothermal &
Cogeneration/Trigeneration
Systems

14. Modular HVAC
Systems Can
Also Include
• Steam Plant
• Compressed Air
• Water Filtration
• Ice Storage
• Heat Recovery

15. Modular Systems
Can Be
Custom Designed

16. To meet specific project needs like
• Redundancy
• Controls
• Footprint
• Different
Component Brands
• Efficiency
• Budget

17. They can be as LARGE or small as your
project and space requires.
100 to 30,000+ GPM
50 to 10,000+ tons

18. They can be built for Indoor OR...

19. Outdoor Applications

20. Modular Systems
Do Have Some
Limitations

21. Each system must break into
shippable pieces
&
individual chiller size is
limited to roughly 2,000 tons
However...

22. Modular Systems
Have Many
Advantages

23. • Factory Labor & Efficiencies
• Factory Testing
• Built in Parallel with Other
Construction
• Less Field Labor
• Single Source
Responsibility & Warranty
• Fixed Cost, Less Expensive
• Faster Lead Time
• Fixed Delivery Date
• Engineering & Design
Assistance
• Customization
• Smaller Footprint
&
Quality
Efficiency
