Quiet Comfort, High Stakes: Vertical Stack Units at Bally’s Quad Cities

If you’ve ever stayed at Bally’s Quad Cities Hotel & Casino, you know it’s more than just a place to sleep—it’s a full experience. Delivering a great guest experience means more than just offering entertainment and amenities. Between the buzzing casino floor, upscale dining, and lively entertainment, the last thing anyone wants is a noisy HVAC system interrupting the vibe.

That’s why Bally’s chose the Tranquility® (SM) Vertical Stack Series from ClimateMaster for their heating and cooling needs. It’s a decision that reflects what we love most about working with forward-thinking customers: they care about comfort, efficiency, and long-term reliability just as much as we do.

Quiet Comfort, Guest After Guest

Hotels face a unique challenge: maintaining perfect temperatures across hundreds of rooms while keeping noise to an absolute minimum. The Tranquility SM was engineered to handle that balance effortlessly. With double-isolation compressor mounting and an optional UltraQuiet package, these units are designed to operate smoothly in the background—providing comfort, not distractions.

The performance is just as strong as the sound control. With EERs up to 17.6 and an average COP of 5.0, the Tranquility SM delivers real energy savings that make a noticeable impact over time.

Why This System Works So Well at Bally’s

Bally’s isn’t just a name on a blueprint—it’s a living, breathing building full of people and activity. It is a dynamic, always-on facility. That kind of environment demands equipment that works as hard as the staff does.

Here’s what really stood out:

• Removable chassis: Maintenance is easier and less disruptive. In a hotel, that’s a game changer.

• Phased installation: With the cabinet sliding over riser ball valves and field-configurable knockouts, the system adapts to the building’s construction schedule—not the other way around.

• Smart controls: Integrated BACnet and Modbus compatibility makes it easy to tie into Bally’s BMS for centralized control.

• Sustainable refrigerant: It uses R-454B, which has a much lower Global Warming Potential than traditional refrigerants. That’s good for the environment—and for future regulations.

From Our Perspective

Every upgrade at Bally’s is made with the guest in mind. That’s what makes the Tranquility SM such a smart match—it helps provide the quiet, comfortable environment guests expect, while also giving the maintenance team a system they can rely on.

We were glad to support the selection and planning process from the very beginning. This wasn’t just about matching specs—it was about making sure the system would serve the building, the staff, and the guests for years to come.
