The International Mechanical Code (IMC) has approved a code change proposal from the Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute’s (AHRI) Chilled Beam Product Section to remove the requirement for condensate drains for certain chilled beam designs.
Active Chilled Beams IQHC (high capacity) Series provide high-efficiency cooling/heating and are specifically designed for the loads of North American commercial building applications at hospitals, office buildings, and schools.
A chilled beam is an air distribution device with an integral coil that may be installed within a space in order to provide sensible cooling and heating. There are two main types of chilled beams: active and passive.
Today, designing, building, and operating have one common thread: energy efficiency. And it begins with a building’s HVAC system. There are many pieces that go into an energy-efficient HVAC system - especially for commercial buildings.
