Allied Air Enterprises Bellevue Facility - Cooling Tower in Bellevue, Ohio, United States

Allied Air Enterprises Bellevue Facility is a cooling tower located at 421 Monroe St., Bellevue, Ohio, United States. The facility is operational and classified under NAICS 333415, which covers air-conditioning and warm air heating equipment and commercial and industrial refrigeration equipment manufacturing. As a cooling tower, it plays a role in rejecting heat from industrial processes or HVAC systems. The facility operates within the regulatory framework of the United States, which includes ASHRAE 15 safety standards for refrigeration systems and the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol for refrigerant management. Cooling towers in this region typically use water as a heat transfer medium, with efficiency measured by the coefficient of performance (COP). The scale of the facility is consistent with industrial applications in the Midwest. Environmental considerations for cooling towers include water consumption and potential for legionella growth. The facility's location in Bellevue, Ohio, places it in a temperate climate, which influences cooling demand. Its role in the local industrial ecosystem supports manufacturing and commercial operations, contributing to energy efficiency and thermal management.

Cooling towers like this facility use evaporative cooling, which consumes water and can lead to drift losses. The environmental impact depends on water source sustainability and treatment to prevent biological growth. Refrigerant use in associated systems is regulated under the Kigali Amendment to phase down high-GWP refrigerants. Operational efficiency (COP) affects energy consumption and associated emissions.
