Take two... and it's a good one.
In this episode of HVAC TV, Tony Mormino sits down with Louis Hill and Peter Nestingen from ABB, one of the world’s leading VFD manufacturers, for a deep (but not too geeky) dive into Drives 101—including when to use them, how they save energy, and why they’re critical for the future of HVAC systems.
They discuss:
What a VFD actually does (finally explained in a way that makes sense)
Why adding VFDs—even to constant load systems—can save tons of energy 💡
ABB’s ultra-low harmonic drives
The battle of ECMs vs. VFDs
Common HVAC applications like pumps, fans, chillers, data centers, and more
The surprising story of ABB’s new smart factory and value-added channel support
Oh—and yes, Tony forgot to hit record at first. 😂
