HVAC Philippines - Stuff from a Trane Engineer

Introduction           I'm a senior sales engineer with over 15 years of experience, and I've been working in the HVAC industry since 2008. I was also a team leader for 15 months, from October 2021 to January 2023, before getting promoted to my current position. In this blog post, I'm going to share some of my experiences as a sales engineer, and give you some insights into what it's like to work in this field. The Good One of the best things about being a sales engineer is that I get to work on challenging and interesting projects.

In my previous blog post, I talked about the importance of chiller efficiency  and why less is more. I explained how choosing a more efficient chiller can save you money on your energy bills and help reduce your environmental impact. In this post, I want to take a closer look at the benefits of using a chiller that meets ASHRAE Standard 90.1. This standard sets minimum energy requirements for commercial buildings, and it's a great way to ensure that you're getting the most efficient chiller possible. ASHRAE 90.1 Chillers: More Efficient, More Cost-Effective ASHRAE 90.1 chillers are designed to use less energy than traditional chillers. This is achieved through a variety of features, such as: More efficient compressors Larger heat exchangers High-efficiency motors Variable-frequency drives As a result of these features, ASHRAE 90.1 chillers can achieve energy efficiency ratings of up to 0.55 kW/ton. This is significantly lower than the industry standard of 0.64 kW/ton. The highe
