Green Testing

Is it time to replace your Boiler or Chiller?

In many cases, existing boiler and chiller plants are significantly oversized. Sometimes twice as much or even more. Unfortunately, oversized equipment destroys operating efficiency. It is simply dollar foolish to blindly replace existing equipment. Let us ‘Green Test’ your boiler or chiller plant so you can make an informed decision and select equipment that will truly reduce your energy bill.

The Hawkeye Green Test Report is the smart way to select replacement equipment.

Equipment Selection

Have your contractor select the replacement equipment based on the Hawkeye Green Test Report. We can work with your contractor to help make the proper equipment selections. In many cases the replacement boilers and chillers can be significantly down sized while at the same time they are selected at the best possible operational efficiency.

Operating Efficiency

Oversized equipment translates to very poor operating efficiency due to short cycling and part load operating conditions. Sizing a replacement boiler or chiller with similar size or even larger equipment can actually make the operating efficiency even worse. The marketed efficiency of new boilers and chillers is usually for one peak performance time. In reality, improperly sized equipment is rarely ever at this peak condition and the actual operating efficiency is much lower. Let us ‘Green Test’ your boiler or chiller plant so you can make an informed decision and select equipment that will truly reduce your energy bill.
