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.
