How much does a busted chiller barrel cost?
Found this during a pm.
I took these pictures after turning bypass valve off. Flow switch was still closing with no flow through evap.

Probably better off to replace that old p.o.s.

Replaced a 99 RTAA 100 ton barrel in Aug. 40k$ job and done in a day. No rupture though the plastic baffles were warped due to hot water damage.

They are not busted yet. I was just thinking that bypassing evap in winter could cause it to freeze if ambient gets cold enough. Then I wondered what a chiller barrel costs. I have never replaced/retubed one.

I don't know if refrigerant or h20 is in the tubes. I would think h20 in tubes. Originally Posted by supertek65

but since it is a tube bundle full of refrigerant surrounded or placed in a barrell of water, it would be hard! I think?I WILL SELL WORK,GENERATE BUSINESS, GO GET NEW CUSTOMERS!
