What is the primary water source used for a water cooled recovery unit's condensing coil?

The primary water source used for a water-cooled recovery unit's condensing coil is typically the local municipal water supply. This is because municipal water systems are designed to provide a reliable and consistent source of water that is treated for safety and quality. Utilizing municipal water ensures that the recovery unit operates efficiently and effectively, as the water quality meets the necessary standards for cooling applications.

In addition, municipal systems often have the infrastructure in place to supply large volumes of water consistently, which is critical for the operation of HVAC systems and recovery units that rely on effective heat exchange processes in their condensing coils. Other sources, such as private well water, reclaimed water, and surface water sources, can present variability in terms of water quality and supply reliability. This variability can affect the performance of the recovery unit and could potentially lead to issues with maintenance, efficiency, or even damage to the system if not properly managed.
