EXTRA EDITION Btu Buddy 88: Follow-Up on a Dirty Water Cooled Condenser: Bob has been on a job at a convention center with a 100-ton water cooled condenser. The owners are really anxious for Bob to get the a/c back on, but Bob said the tubes must be cleaned before the unit will run. He has called the shop and asked for a helper and a tube cleaning machine to help him get the unit running as fast as possible. The maintenance man for the convention center couldn’t understand why the tubes needed cleaning because he kept the water tower very clean. corrections In the June 14 issue, TheNEWS incorrectly identified Ray Isaac’s title with NATE. He is Chairman of the Board. In the July 5 issue, the website for ATC was incorrect. It should have read, www.atccoolers.com.
