A cooling-tower water treatment program that allows too few cycles of concentration in hard water, without blowdown control, can lead most directly to which two coupled problems in condenser/ tower loops (conceptual)?

Choices

  • (A) Higher reheat in AHU in all weather
  • (B) Diesel exhaust in duct
  • (C) Blower door fail
  • (D) Scale+biofilm+Legionella risk (aerosol drift) in poorly controlled chemistry and drift+ASHRAE 188+local

Correct answer: (D)

Scale+biofilm+Legionella risk (aerosol drift) in poorly controlled chemistry and drift+ASHRAE 188+local

Explanation

ASHRAE 188: WMP+testing; cycles+blowdown+inhibitors+filtration+UV.
