Yacht at Dock | Harborside Chillers - Chilled Water Air Conditioner Protection for Your Boat or Yacht

Chilled Water Air
Conditioner System Protection

The Shore Air Conditioning Chiller System was designed to maintain the health of your yacht’s a/c systems when moored in your long-term slip. The system not only extends the life of your air conditioners but it also allows you to rest assured that your yacht’s interior is being maintained in an uninterrupted air conditioned environment when you are not on it.

Peace of Mind

Your yacht’s interior is being maintained in an uninterrupted air conditioned environment.

Here’s How it Works.
The chilled water air conditioning system components consist of a package unit process chiller and connected freshwater storage tank located on shore (dock or dry land). The package chiller maintains a specific set point temperature of the storage tank for supply of chilled fresh water to the yacht. The storage tank maintains proper fluid level with shore water supply and automatic float fill.

The yacht is plumbed with a set of 3-way valves and plumbed with through hull connections and quick connect flexible hoses from dockside plumbed to the storage tank and chiller. Once the vessel is hooked up to the two dockside hoses and the two on-board 3-way valves are in proper position, the yachts internal circulator pump will draw chilled water from the storage tank and return to the storage tank upon demand.

Frequently Asked Questions

I only have one AC unit on my boat. Can I still get a chiller?

A: Yes, our air conditioner chiller units are sized accordingly to the BTU requirements of the boat.

What’s the largest BTU a chiller can handle?

A: A single unit chiller can do up to 80,000 BTU’s. Multiple chillers can be installed in tandem if larger BTU is needed.

How long does it take to build a chiller?

A: About a one month lead time.

How loud is the chiller on my dock?

A: A single chiller does not exceed 55 -70 decibels. So pretty quiet!

Can the Chiller be custom made to fit my yacht?

A: Yes! All our chilled water air conditioning systems are built custom to fit seamlessly on your vessel.

The dockside a/c chiller is a brilliant concept which Kevin has engineered magnificently. I can say this because I have a Hatteras motor yacht and have had it on Kevin’s system for a year now. In the channel backwater my slip is in, I used to acid flush my systems every two months to prevent barnacles from plugging lines. I no longer do any acid flushing and my a/c’s perform reliably. What a refreshing concept!
