  • environmentally friendly
  • no mechanical noise (no fan)
  • safety of operation
  • no recirculation as the plume is rejected at high level
  • limited plot area
  • limited maintenance
  • high longevity (generally more than plant life expectancy)
  • Payback period between 8 and 16 years depending on several factors

 

The main one is the local construction cost.
