Cooling towers play an important part in many industrial processes. Therefore cooling towers that no longer reach their cooling capacity have an important impact on your production process. A decrease in cooling capacity often has the same cause: a polluted cooling tower.

The importance of cooling tower maintenance

A polluted cooling tower can easily be prevented with a regular, preferably yearly, preventive maintenance. A regular cooling tower maintenance:

• Assures an optimal reliability of your cooling tower
• Assures your cooling tower maintains its good operation 
• Assures your cooling tower maintains its cooling capacity
• Minimizes the risk of legionella
• Extends your cooling tower’s life (avoiding the need to replace your cooling tower quickly)
• Avoids unnecessary quick wear and tear of your cooling tower

It is advisable to have the maintenance carried out by specialized technicians and to use components adapted to the cooling tower and cooling process. These do not necessarily have to be original components from the cooling tower manufacturer. High quality spare parts are as – and sometimes even more – performing than the original components.
