   While you may be tempted to go with the cheapest option or pass on cooling tower cleaning altogether to save a buck or two, it'll just cost you more in the long run, guaranteed. Cooling tower cleaning is a crucial step in ensuring the longevity and functionality of your unit, as well as the safety of your employees. 

If you own or manage a building or industrial business, then you likely have a cooling tower (or towers) somewhere on the premises.  While these heat exchange systems come with plenty of operating costs already, you may be overlooking one of the most necessary maintenance programs. Not only does OSHA suggest having your tower cleaned bi-annually (at a minimum) to promote general industry health and stop the growth of potentially life-threatening bacteria like legionella, but almost every manufacturer has similar cleaning schedules for general machine health purposes. 

 Routine cleaning removes heavy scale deposits and debris from fill packs, eliminators, intake louvers, nozzles, and hot/cold water basins. It also removes this buildup from pump heads, float valves, and fan blades that may cause imbalances and vibration leading to advanced wear on drive and support shafts and their bearings, motors and drive belts, tensioners, and even the cooling tower's mechanical structure itself. 

While simple "Dump and cycle" style chemical de-scaling methods may be the easiest and cheapest, they can also lead to rapid degradation of galvanizing and other protective coatings and can cause rust and corrosion in especially expensive stainless steel pans or units. We utilize a multiple step cleaning process tailored specifically to every unit that includes multiple purge and rinse cycles, manual de-clogging and cleaning of spray bars, nozzles, and upper basins, specialized chemical treatments, pressure washing, and full unit flushes. We try not to focus on anything, because we guarantee a thorough and complete cleaning of all interior unit surfaces, fill packs, basins, and fan drive areas.
