Commercial Pipe Installation
The common metals are not affected by dry ammonia. Moist ammonia will not corrode iron or steel, but will react rapidly with copper, brass, zinc and many alloys, especially those containing copper. Only steel or ductile iron should be used for ammonia containers, valves, fittings and piping. Under normal conditions, ammonia is a very stable. Open-ceiling store designs are mandating a change from the standard black insulation to a white product for better paint coverage and appearance. The installation procedures used on supermarket applications require that copper pipe (20-foot sections) be insulated on the floor and then taken to the ceiling and hung.
Licensed and Skilled in High-Pressure Piping
Ammonia refrigeration piping has been the foundation of Cool Air Mechanical, Inc. since it opened. We excel at ammonia design and have installed many different refrigeration systems. We have built refrigeration systems for food processing plants, ice rinks, bakeries, commercial offices, and schools — just to name a few. Along with ammonia piping, we also excel at freon refrigeration.
Our craftsmen are also skilled in hydronic, steam, and gas piping. From hooking up boilers to huge cooling towers, we have the engineering background and installation crew to do any type of piping work. Whether it's welded, threaded or victaulic piping, we can install it quickly and with the finest craftsmanship. We have welders that perform state-of-the-art welds on high pressure piping and construction pipe fitters that can make any threaded or flanged install job look easy! Whether you need a whole-system installation or a minor repair, we have the team, materials, and resources to get the job done.
