In the present paper the possible energy savings achievable by means of dry coolers adoption in cooling plants serving shopping mall buildings has been carried out. In these buildings, could happens that, due to internal gains caused by occupancy, lighting, and electrical devices, or because of solar radiation entering through the large skylights on the aisle, some zones have to be cooled also during the middle and the winter seasons. The aim of this work is the evaluation of the energy saving, reachable when a water indirect free cooling system is integrated into a traditional cooling equipment in a shopping mall. Depending on outside climate conditions, the dry-cooler units could be used alternatively to cool down the refrigerant flow, or the water supplied to fan coils, achieving in such a way an indirect free cooling; so, the proposed system allows to turn off the chiller. By means of energy simulations, electrical energy saving in different locations has been evaluated. Simulations results allowed a comparison between a traditional plant and a plant equipped with a dry-cooler. These simulations were useful to evaluate the influence of weather conditions in the dry cooler integration
