Keeping Our Hospital Cool

In my weblog I normally write most healthcare. This seems reasonable since we are a healthcare system, simply at that home are things that nosotros take for granted similar having heated buildings inward the wintertime equally well equally cooled buildings inwards the summertime. Recently, I spent some 4th dimension with Jіm Kеуzеr, CHFM, оur Dіrесtоr оf Fасіlіtіеѕ. Jim was showing me ii of our chillers that needed to alive replaced. These devices are huge! It is a true feat of modern technology scientific discipline to alive able to dismantle the former chillers also supersede them with new ones within an existing edifice. See Jim’moment answers to my questions below.
