CTI STD-201 Thermal Certification Testing

The STD-201 Thermal Certification Program from the Cooling Technology Institute (CTI) applies to the thermal performance of a manufacturer’s product line where all models have the same basic design and only differ in relative size. If a manufacturer has several basic designs, each basic design must be separately certified and issued a separate certification approval letter and separate CTI Certification Validation Number.

With the purchase of a “certified” model, the Owner/Operator has an assurance that the tower will perform as specified. Either that model or one within its model line will have been thoroughly tested by McHale for Certification and found to perform as claimed by the Manufacturer.
