As cooling tower season approaches, simple preventative cooling tower maintenance can help reduce energy expenditures and identify areas of concern within the water treatment process.

Cooling tower performance runs parallel with factors directly influencing the heat transfer process, such as:

• Chemical buildup
• Air flow
• Spray nozzles
• Pump equipment

User education within a facility is essential when trying to conserve water. By knowing your system well, you will be able to figure out why the system is using more or less water than usual, or when an issue arises. Systems will be most effective when employees, contractors, and visitors all understand their role in operating and maintenance procedures. Being open to learn about new water efficient technologies or methods that come about is not only cost effective, it is also water efficient – even small changes within a system can result in significant water savings.

Your company has set sustainability goals to increase the bottom line and feel good about doing it. To start saving water, you first need to know where you’re using it. Auditing your water usage is a great first step, as you’ll see all the places that water is used and make some changes that impact your bottom line along the way.

Has your company been seeking a vendor for your water treatment needs? If so, then you know that the options are vast. The wrong choice could lead to unexpected downtime, equipment replacement costs, and undue risks to your staff and clients. Beyond costs, there are a few important things to consider when choosing a water treater to ensure your investments are protected.
