“How important is your cooling tower to the success of your operation? For most of our customers, their cooling tower acts as the “heart” of their plant.

An improperly maintained cooling tower will produce significantly warmer cooling water, resulting in a condenser temperature up to 5 to 10 degrees F higher than a properly maintained cooling tower. This reduces the efficiency of the chiller, needlessly wastes energy, and increases cost. Typically, a chiller will consume 2.5 to 3.5 percent more energy for each degree increase in the condenser temperature. |
