Cooling Tower Services
Trusted Maintenance
Comprehensive cooling tower maintenance programs – available on quarterly, semi-annual, and annual schedules – designed for maximum reliability, efficiency, and compliance. Services include seasonal start-up and shutdown, basin and fill inspections, fan and motor service, belt and gearbox maintenance, vibration testing, and drift eliminator checks. We also support connected systems such as pumps and heat exchangers. Every visit includes detailed digital service reports, water treatment and compliance documentation, and asset condition assessments to support long-term capital planning.
Basin, fill, drift eliminator, fan, and motor inspections with vibration testing and alignment checks
Gearbox service, belt and bearing replacement, nozzle and distribution system cleaning
Upgrades for energy efficiency, plume abatement, noise reduction, and extended service life
Optimization & Retrofits
Performance-Focused Retrofits
Our approach to cooling tower optimization focuses on extending equipment life, reducing water and energy consumption, and meeting strict Southern California compliance requirements. We implement advanced strategies such as variable frequency drives on fans and pumps, automated basin heater controls, and ambient wet-bulb reset for condenser water. Additional retrofit options include high-efficiency fill media, low-drift eliminators, corrosion-resistant components, and plume abatement systems that address local water and air quality concerns.
Water & Energy Efficiency Benchmarking
Each project begins with clear performance benchmarking. We establish a baseline that includes fan power (kW), approach temperature, water usage, blowdown cycles, and drift loss. From there, adaptive fan sequencing and setpoint control are applied to balance performance with utility costs and water conservation mandates. Benchmarking data is validated against utility-grade trend reports, giving owners transparent before-and-after documentation of system improvements.
Monitoring & Reliability Assurance
Optimization doesn’t end with installation. Our monitoring framework provides real-time alerts for abnormal fan power draw, basin temperature fluctuations, water level issues, and vibration trends. Secure remote monitoring with automated notifications enables proactive service, while monthly performance reviews ensure towers operate at peak efficiency throughout seasonal changes. This ongoing assurance protects your investment, supports compliance with Title 24 and SCAQMD, and sustains long-term operational savings.

Common Inquiries
FAQs
How often should a commercial cooling tower be serviced?
Cooling towers should be inspected and serviced at least quarterly, with monthly water treatment monitoring for most facilities. Preventive maintenance includes basin cleaning, fill inspection, drift eliminator checks, nozzle flushing, and fan/gearbox service. Regular attention prevents scale, corrosion, and Legionella risk while ensuring compliance with Title 24 and CALGreen performance standards.
Can cooling towers operate during maintenance or replacement?
In many cases, tower service can be staged to keep critical loads online. For multi-cell towers, one cell can remain operational while another undergoes cleaning or repairs. For single-cell systems, temporary rental towers or portable fluid coolers can be deployed to maintain uptime.
Does cooling tower maintenance reduce energy and water costs?
Yes. Clean fill media, efficient drift eliminators, balanced nozzles, and optimized fan control improve heat transfer while reducing fan kW and water blowdown. Proper water treatment also minimizes scale and biological fouling, extending equipment life and lowering operating costs.
Do you handle SCAQMD drift and emissions compliance?
Absolutely. We verify that drift eliminators meet SCAQMD standards (≤0.002% drift) and provide documentation to support regulatory inspections. Our services also align with Title 24, CALGreen, and ASHRAE guidelines to ensure environmental and health compliance.
Can cooling tower controls integrate with our BAS?
Yes. We provide controls integration for fan sequencing, water level sensors, conductivity monitoring, and vibration alerts. Integration with BACnet/IP, Modbus, and other protocols ensures your BAS has full visibility into tower performance.
Are there rebates or incentives for cooling tower upgrades?
Southern California utilities frequently offer incentives for VFD fan retrofits, high-efficiency fill replacement, and hybrid cooling solutions that reduce water consumption. We help facilities identify and capture available rebates to lower capital costs.
What are the signs my cooling tower needs repair or replacement?
Warning signs include visible corrosion, reduced water flow, scaling or fouling on fill, excessive vibration or noise, drift water escaping, and rising approach temperatures. Regular inspections catch issues early, but persistent performance loss may indicate the need for major repair or replacement.
How long do cooling towers typically last?
A well-maintained cooling tower can last 20–30 years. Service life depends on material type (galvanized steel, stainless steel, FRP, or HDPE), water chemistry, and maintenance practices. Corrosion, scaling, or neglected water treatment can shorten lifespan significantly.
