    DX Coil Face Velocity?

    I agree with mintjulep. You should be able to go down much more than 20% with an intertwined coil.

    Question about economizer control

The amount of controls necessary to make a 2 ton RTU modulate to maintain a fixed supply air temp is literally going to cost as much as the unit itself would. There are a number of third parties that sell economizers that can be added to...

    Chiller plant in return air path

    MechEngNCPE, I agree, but this is an existing commercial office building with three 450 ton chillers up top. I don't have a lot of options for building a new mechanical room.
