Hi All,

How do we control the maximum number of cycles of the cooling tower?

Is it by controlling bleed off rate and make-up water rate? 

Thanks in advance!

Good afternoon,

The reference guide lists Rainwater as a good non-potable water source for make-up water. The proposed cooling tower manufacturer raised the following concern for use of...

Hi all! Does anyone know whether the “No Cooling Tower” credit is an alternative substitute of “Cooling tower water use” credit or a pilot credit? In other words, would a project which meets all...

Our project is on a University campus, which utilizes a Distrcit Plant.  There is no Cooling Tower directly within our project, but there is one at the District Plant.  Can we count the District...

Can I use the potable water analysis reports from the city utility to calculate the cycles?

The documentation requirements for WEC3 requires the non-potable water analysis if using 100% non-potable (for 2 points).
As per points table, for 2 points threshold, min 20% non potable...

The credit is pretty vague about defining the "maximum number of cycles without exceeding any filtration levels". Does this need to be exact (to the gallon over a year)? For example, one of my...

Hi,

I am a bit confused with the credit requirements for achieving 1 point.
We have already the make-up water parameters and we have calculated the cycles of concentration for each...

Hi, based on a water test report, if the number of cycles already exceed 10, does that mean that both points are achievable? The calculations for the project indicate the lowest number of cycles...
