The Importance of Cooling Tower Cleaning for Safety and Compliance Cooling towers play a critical role in HVAC, manufacturing, power generation, and industrial process cooling, but they also require regular cleaning and maintenance to ensure optimal performance and regulatory compliance. Without proper cleaning, cooling towers become breeding grounds for biofilm, scale buildup, and harmful bacteria,…
Read MoreWe all know how Northern winters can be brutal, with subzero temperatures, icy roads, and frozen industrial plants—but summer is just as unforgiving. In fact, according to NOAA’s 130-year climate record, 2024 was the hottest year on record, with an average annual temperature of 55.5°F—3.5 degrees above the 20th-century average. These temperature extremes push our…
Read MoreWhy Legionella Prevention in Cooling Towers Matters Cooling towers are essential in industrial and commercial cooling systems, but they also create an ideal environment for Legionella bacteria. When cooling towers are not properly maintained, aerosolized water droplets can carry Legionella into the air, increasing the risk of Legionnaires’ disease, a severe respiratory illness. Many outbreaks…
