Thermal Ice Storage Helps to Reduce Your Carbon Footprint
EVAPCO is proud to introduce our new Thermal Ice Storage product application video! This product video was developed to promote our global marketing of EVAPCO's Extra-P™ Technology Ice Coils in Thermal Ice Storage applications. Thermal Ice Storage provides environmental, energy and cost saving benefits to the end user by shifting power demand to off-peak hours. In addition, Thermal Ice Storage:
Reduces carbon emissions by eliminating the requirement of additional power plants
Reduces connected kW of associated equipment in an air conditioning system by supplying colder than normal chilled water temperatures (1°C/34°F) to the building
Lowers the installed and operating cost of the entire air conditioning system
Contributes to LEED credits under Energy & Atmosphere and Innovation in Design by demonstrating energy cost savings over baseline building energy costs established by ASHRAE 90.1-2004.
Recently received approval by Building Green to be included in their GreenSpec® Directory-the comprehensive guide to environmentally responsible building products
Ice provides an energy efficient cooling system that is economically responsible and meets your commitment to the environment. By diminishing the demand on the utility's electrical infrastructure, ice reduces the cost of your buildings electrical and HVAC system components helping the utility avoid building new power plants,
therefore reducing carbon emissions.
Learn more about Thermal Ice Storage by viewing the video on EVAPCO's website at http://www.evapco.com/ice-video.asp. For information on how to incorporate Thermal Ice Storage into your new or existing system design contact EVAPCO or send an e-mail to ice@evapco.com.

EVAPCO Products are Environmentally Sustainable by Design
ASHRAE's Green Guide provides guidance for sustainable building design - and EVAPCO products are integral to this green strategy! Green Guide Chapter 9 focuses on "Interaction with the local environment" and features the sustainable benefits of EVAPCO's AT Series Induced Draft Counterflow Cooling Tower . The Green Guide is covered in EVAPCO's January 2008 Green Piece newsletter. See the excerpts below from the newsletter and Green Guide.
The following paragraphs shown in quotation marks are excerpts from pages 171 and 172 of the ASHRAE Green Guide, second edition.
"Green Choices- Tower Selection"1
Induced-Draft Counterflow Cooling Towers include Sustainability in their Design.
"All cooling tower designs are efficient at removing heat from water through evaporation; however, not all designs perform as well environmentally. Some tower designs are more prone to splash out, spills, drift, and algae growth than others. Splash out involves tower water splashing from the tower. This happens most often in no-fan conditions (circulating tower water with the fans off) when there are strong winds. Cross-flow towers are more prone to this issue since, in no-fan condition, some water will fall outside of the fill."
Induced-Draft Counterflow pressurized distribution systems prevent water from exiting the cooling tower.
"Spills can happen from the cold-water basin from overflowing at shutdown when all of the water in the piping drains into the basin. Proper water levels will prevent this. Some tower designs use hot-water basins to distribute water at the top of the tower, while other designs use a spray header pipe. The hot-water basin design can overflow if the nozzles clog; a spray header pipe never overflows."
Induced-Draft, Counterflow basins are protected from the sun.
"Algae are a nuisance problem in basins and can contribute to microbial growth. Algae control requires harsher chemical treatment than typical biological control. Since algae are plants, they need sunlight to grow. Some tower designs are light tight, which completely eliminates algae as an issue in cooling towers, while other designs are more open and algae growth can be an issue."
Induced-Draft, Counterflow towers have the lowest measurable drift in the industry at .001% of the recirculating gpm.
"The amount of drift varies extensively in tower design. Some tower designs have very little drift, and the less the drift from a tower, the lower the amount of water containing minerals, water treatment chemicals, and microbes that will be released into the surrounding environment."

The Green Guide also publishes a list of Green Tips for quick guidance on green products and applications. Green Tip #14, #21 and #22 highlight EVAPCO products and system applications with environmentally sustainable designs including:
Green Tip #14- The Pulse~Pur™ Non-Chemical Water Treatment system, environmentally responsible cooling water treatment using pulsed electric fields, saves water and eliminates chemicals
Green Tip # 21- Closed Circuit Coolers- Coolers are an integral part of Water Loop Heat Pump Systems, heat pump systems conserve energy that otherwise would be lost to atmosphere
Green Tip # 22- Thermal Energy Storage systems-Shift peak air-conditioning demand load to off-peak hours and reduces carbon emissions
Chapter 9- Interaction with the Local Environment and all of the Green Tips are posted below to assist you in your green selling efforts.

Ultra~Pure Air™ Systems
The Ultra~Pure Air™ (UPA) System is the result of an intensive three (3) year research project. The UPA System epitomizes how rethinking the entire hygienic air process can yield a unique engineering solution which solves a host of problems end-users have been forced to accept in the past. Utilizing revolutionary process chamber technology (patent pending), UPA Systems are for process air applications where the impact of microbiological contamination is most serious.
Those individuals who deal with these issues need to weigh the first-cost investment in the UPA System against other wide-ranging costs which include:
- Product Recalls
- Litigation Cost
- Damaged Product Brand
- Insurance Cost
- Company Reputation
- Increased Regulation
Properly selected and installed, EVAPCO’s UPA System will deliver the industry’s most secure level of process air quality. If your application warrants this caliber of assurance against product contamination, we welcome the opportunity to discuss the UPA System with you.
