National Refrigeration & A/C Products Cooling Tower, Bensalem, Pennsylvania

National Refrigeration & A/C Products operates a cooling tower at 539 Dunksferry Rd in Bensalem, Pennsylvania. The facility is part of the air conditioning and refrigeration equipment manufacturing industry (NAICS 333415), supporting industrial cooling processes in the region. The cooling tower operates under U.S. environmental regulations, including EPA refrigerant management rules and the Clean Air Act. As a manufacturing facility, it likely uses evaporative cooling technology, which requires water management and adherence to local discharge permits. Typical facilities in this sector use moderate-scale towers for process cooling. Cooling towers play a critical role in industrial heat rejection, affecting energy efficiency and water consumption. The facility's location in Bensalem, near Philadelphia, places it within a densely populated area where water resources and refrigerant emissions are closely monitored. Compliance with ASHRAE 15 safety standards and the Kigali Amendment's HFC phase-down is relevant for refrigeration-related operations.

Cooling towers in industrial settings like this one consume significant water for evaporative cooling, which can impact local water resources and require careful management to minimize drift and blowdown. Refrigerant leaks from associated equipment contribute to global warming potential, making compliance with the Kigali Amendment and EPA's SNAP program important. The facility's efficiency (COP) and water conservation practices are key environmental factors.
