Zusammenfassung:Smith & Wesson manufactures handguns, law-enforcement products, and firearm-safety and security products in multiple buildings totaling approximately 600,000 sq ft in Springfield, Mass. For approximately 20 years, air conditioning for two of those buildings, which total approximately 107,000 sq ft, had been provided via 10 rooftop units and six split systems with direct-expansion (DX) cooling coils utilizing R-22 refrigerant. Those single-zone rooftop units and split systems provided constant-volume air distribution, with a cumulative design cooling capacity of 555 tons and a design heating capacity of 4,600 MBH.
