Located in downtown Toronto, the Delta hotel on Lower Simcoe Street, near the waterfront, is one of the largest and most luxurious in Canada.

Manufacturers explain maintenance, assessment procedures

Armstrong Design Envelope TangoTM Intelligent Variable Speed pumps

 

DESIGN CONDITIONS: “Proper pump operation at design conditions should be verified against the manufacturer’s published curve,” said Ben Needham, field applications engineer, Taco Comfort Solutions.
 
The argument can be made that   pumps   don’t fail, they just function less efficiently. If the bearings are completely seized and refuse to turn, then the failure argument is valid — otherwise, the pump keeps on pumping in most cases. Poor design, like operating too far to the left or right on the pump curve, can cause problems, and misapplications can bring about premature failure, but the pump still pumps.
 

Designed to do their job without wavering, hydronic pumps do require maintenance to optimize their performance — even the maintenance-free ones. According to Ben Needham, field applications engineer, Taco Comfort Solutions, there are two general types of pump maintenance to consider as a technician — mechanical maintenance and pump assessment.

It may be that the health crisis expands the ways in which you use remote HVAC management systems like Pump Manager from Armstrong. If you’re not already connected, Armstrong has an easy ‘no-contact’ way to add the service and an offer to make things easier during a difficult time.

Under normal circumstances remote management of your assets is great for data collection and emergency alerts, but if you’re taking care of a building (or a few buildings) you might still like to take a walk and check things out first-hand. It’s a chance to stretch your legs, and add some in-person, physical observation to the mix for prudent management oversight. Sometimes a damper is stuck or there’s a similar problem that can be addressed quickly, the ‘old school’ way.
