Nothing leaves without running under load.

We source used and surplus air-cooled chillers from decommissioned facilities, plant and equipment upgrades, contractors, and equipment brokers across the country. Every unit is vetted before we buy it, so only equipment worth reconditioning makes it into our inventory.

Before we purchase a chiller we review its age, run hours, refrigerant, service history, and overall condition, and confirm the major components (compressors, coils, and controls) are sound and worth reconditioning. Units that don't meet our standards never make it to the yard.

After we acquire a chiller we recondition it: clean it, replace worn parts, and leak-check the refrigerant circuits. Then we complete a full inspection and run it under load to confirm operation and function of all components, and we provide a video of the test run and an inspection report before it's listed.

Before release we run the chiller the way it would run on a real job: energized and pulling an actual cooling load, not just powered on. We verify it reaches and holds setpoint and check the compressors, fans, and controls, recording the results. It's the difference between “it turns on” and “it performs.”

Yes. We complete a full inspection and a test run under load, and provide a video of the test run along with an inspection report. The results are documented and available to view, so you buy on evidence, not a promise.

Equipment is sold as-is, and no equipment warranty is offered at this price. A start-up guarantee is included: all components and parts are guaranteed to be in working order. If a part is faulty at the onsite start-up, we furnish a replacement at no cost, including freight within the USA. Start-up must be performed by a qualified chiller technician within two weeks of shipment. The guarantee excludes failures from neglect or improper startup, operation, use, or application, and install labor is not included.

Yes. Start-up must be performed by a qualified chiller technician within two weeks of shipment for the start-up guarantee to apply. Proper startup protects the compressors and controls. Install labor isn't included, but ask us if you need a technician referral.
