Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Condensing Units – Commercial
A classic piece of mid 20th century, Toronto built, heavy duty, no nonsense, open-system, refrigeration machinery by a Canadian manufacture, well recognised for its unique Canadian engineering solutions and contributions to commercial and industrial refrigeration process applications, Brunner, 1952.
Features:
Unique system of belt tightening designed and built by Brunner
Industrial Significance:
Canada had many small companies spring up in the middle years of the 20th century to participate in the boom years of the industry. Most had modest ambitions and resources, and were satisfied by building a modest range of equipment. Brunner was an exception, building small fractional horsepower, open-system machines, as demonstrated here, as well as engineering and building large systems up to 100 HP or more.
