Installation Mechanical temperature is 65°F. Condenser piping must be in accordance with all local and national codes. Condenser piping components generally function identically to those in the evaporator piping system. In addition, cooling tower systems may include a manual or automatic bypass valve that can alter water flow rate to maintain condensing pressure.
