In 2010, McQuay acquired HydroKool LLC of Phoenix, Arizona, a designer and manufacturer of pre-packaged, pre-engineered custom HVAC solutions. [4] In 2010, the Daikin and McQuay Applied Development Center was certified as LEED Gold. [5] In late 2013, Daikin dropped the McQuay name, ending 80 years of business for the name.
However, in November 2013, the Daikin-McQuay group was again rebranded as Daikin Applied, [9] ending 80 years of business for the McQuay name in the United States. Meanwhile, the McQuay brand continues to be used in China and Hong Kong. [10] In the filtration realm, Daikin acquired American Air Filter (AAF) in 2007, [11] and Flanders in 2016. [12]
The equipment used can consist of machines used to remove heat such as a chiller or a cooling tower and equipment for adding heat to the building's water such as a boiler or a commercial water heater. Hydronic fan coil units can be generally divided into two types: Two-pipe fan coil units or four-pipe fan coil units. Two-pipe fan coil units ...
A liquid (glycol based) chiller with an air cooled condenser on the rooftop of a medium size commercial building. In air conditioning systems, chilled coolant, usually chilled water mixed with ethylene glycol, from a chiller in an air conditioning or cooling plant is typically distributed to heat exchangers, or coils, in air handlers or other types of terminal devices which cool the air in ...
A representative pressure–volume diagram for a refrigeration cycle. Vapour-compression refrigeration or vapor-compression refrigeration system (VCRS), [1] in which the refrigerant undergoes phase changes, is one of the many refrigeration cycles and is the most widely used method for air conditioning of buildings and automobiles.
[2] [3] Air conditioning is a member of a family of systems and techniques that provide heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC). [4] Heat pumps are similar in many ways to air conditioners, but use a reversing valve to allow them both to heat and to cool an enclosed space.
In variable-flow hydronic systems, reducing pump speed or staging of pumps with boilers and chillers to suit part-load conditions is an energy efficient method of control. [ 5 ] VAV (variable air flow) systems meet the needs of large modern commercial-use buildings, with internal spaces divided into open-plan areas.
In 1968 McQuay-Norris reported income of $1.12 million on net sales of $32.5 million. By mid 1969 McQuay-Norris was a supplier of replacement auto parts. [3] By 2009 McQuay-Norris was part of the Affinia Group of auto part companies. Affinia also owns the Aimco, AquaChek, Nakata, Quinton Hazell, Raybestos, WIX and BrakePro brands of aftermarket ...
