· Hot water reheat coil shall be factory installed within unit casing and coil assembly shall consist of a single or two row coil(s) with copper tubes aluminium fins and ½" O.D. water connections complete with vent cock. Coils shall be suitable for working pressure of up to 350 psig.
Dehumidification with a pre-heat and then a cooling coil
· Without a reheat coil you basically have 2 ways to attempt to dehumidify. 1. Modulate the cooling coil chilled water valve to maintain space (or discharge) temp. By doing so the water flow is reduced and the amount of cold coil surface area is probably also reduced. So the average coil temperature is higher.
Why does a building need reheat hot water
· I was talking to a friend that does HVAC at a college and he was saying the hot water reheat is down and the building is having massive humidity issues and cause damage all over with pipes sweating and the like. So I tried to ask him how in the heck reheat removes humidity and didnt really get a answer I understood. His real answer was something like if the system was 4 pipe there would be no

INIMIZING REHEAT ENERGY USE IN LABORATORIES
· Strategies to Minimize Reheat As the simulation analysis shows equipment load variation in laboratories can increase energy use in labora-tories that have systems with reheat. The magnitude of this increase varies with location ventilation rate and degree of variation. We will now look at strategies for min-imizing reheat. 1.

Rethinking reheat coils for dehumidification (infographic
· Reheat for dehumidification is simply cooling the air with the air conditioner to pull out the moisture. But instead of throwing the heat outside the reheat coil simply puts that heat back Into the original air stream. It forces an air conditioner to act like a poorly designed dehumidifier. The traditional approach while often accepted is
