Where have you seen that?

Are you sure the water is not cooling separate compressors/evaporators at
each air handler? Rather difficult to cool efficiently without a phase
change.


Bull****. That is how ~ 100 % of all large commerical
buildings do it.

The phase change is in the refrigerant, not the circulating
fluid.
