Missed the CSG MEETING? Here is a recap of the event!
Above all, we want to say that it was a pleasure and privilege for BAULNE to host the CHILLER SYSTEMS GROUP meeting here in MONTRÉAL. We met a lot of very interesting and knowledgeable members and learned a great deal. The opening event took place in Old Montreal’s WILLIAM GRAY HOTEL, as all the attendees gathered for a rooftop meet & greet cocktail. Great company, sun, drinks, Quebec “poutine” and Schwartz smoked meat sandwiches made for a gathering full of happy faces, and set the tone for the events to come.
Among the interesting and highly informative presentations that marked the 2017 edition of the CSG Spring Meeting, we note one given by SUMMIT REFRIGERANTS James Carver and Nick Holden dedicated to The Future of Refrigerants, which was nicely complemented by TRANE’s Justin Wieman’s discourse entitled Refrigerant Updates and Efficient Chilled Water Design. David Sylves, meanwhile, gave attendees a great overview of BITZER’s various compressor technologies. Another highlight was Alan Russenberger, MICRO CONTROL SYSTEMS, on the retrofitting of chiller and compressors control panels.
Other presentations of note that marked the CSG Meeting were a discussion by Orton Baker of JONAS SOFTWARE on their computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) designed to meet HVAC industry contractors needs, FINANCIAL RISK SOLUTIONS Jim Wilson and their comprehensive commercial HVAC service contract insurance and product warranty insurance. And to complete the meeting, a SMARDT CHILLER GROUP plant tour where the TURBOCOR oil-free centrifugal compressor technology is applied. .
