Hi ,
There is no mention of screw chillers either under the credit EA 4 or ASHRAE application.
I can only see absorption, scroll and reciprocating.
Can someone please help me with the life span to consider for screw chillers?
As you know it has to be backed up by a source etc.
Cheers,
Mehdi

Hi Mehdi,
If you have specific documentation on the equipment lifespan from the manufacturer, like a guarantee/warranty or service contract, then you should use that lifespan. If you don't have any information, you should use the default "other equipment" lifespan of 15 years.
