**SITE BITE: Correcting Improperly Installed Chilled Water Coils**
Join us on-site with Stephen Barzelatto, Vice President of Nationwide Coils, as he identifies and corrects a common mistake in the installation of chilled water coils.
---
Recently, I was tasked with measuring six chilled water coils for replacement at a local hospital in Florida. As I examined the existing units, I was surprised to find that all six had been installed as left-hand coils. However, after a quick review, I realized that three of them should have been right-hand coils instead.
This kind of error can have serious consequences, especially in critical environments like hospitals where HVAC performance is essential for comfort and safety. The wrong coil orientation affects airflow and cooling capacity, leading to inefficiencies that can add up over time.
In fact, each row of a misaligned chilled water coil can result in a 2-3% loss in efficiency. For a six-row system, that could mean an overall 15% drop in performance. This not only impacts the building’s comfort but also leads to higher energy costs and reduced unit lifespan.
Thankfully, I caught this mistake during the measurement process and ensured that the correct, right-hand coils were installed. It’s a simple fix, but one that makes a big difference in system performance.
At Nationwide Coils, we understand the importance of proper installation and accurate replacements. Our team ensures that every coil is correctly matched to your system, so you can trust in reliable, efficient performance.
Whether you're dealing with a hospital, commercial building, or industrial facility, choosing a trusted partner like Nationwide Coils means getting the right solution every time—so you can focus on what matters most.
