RRTC Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning students toured Duncan Regional Hospital’s environmental facilities. The tour included exploring four Centrifugal Compressor Chiller Systems, the Boiler Systems ( these systems provide both the air conditioning and heating to the offices and patient rooms). They looked at all the refrigeration in the kitchen for the hospital, the backup generators for when the electricity goes down, and the fire detection systems and how they integrate into the ductwork systems. Thanks Duncan Regional Hospital for the tour!
