At Aad Tech, we provide advanced Cooling Tower EC Fan Retrofit Solutions designed to replace conventional single large fan systems with high-efficiency EC axial fans and smart controllers. Our retrofits are engineered to deliver maximum cooling tower efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and extend equipment life, all while ensuring seamless integration with modern building systems.
When compared to traditional variable frequency drive (VFD) systems, EC Fan Retrofits offer additional energy savings and superior performance in cooling tower applications, making them the smarter choice for energy-efficient upgrades. One of the key benefits of EC technology is its ability to improve energy savings in cooling tower operations, helping facilities significantly cut down on power consumption and operational costs.
This upgrade not only improves cooling performance but also enhances system reliability, delivering up to 40–50% energy savings. It’s one of the most effective and sustainable ways to optimise cooling tower efficiency for industries looking at quick payback and long-term savings.
A cooling tower is a heat rejection device in HVAC and industrial systems that removes excess heat from circulating water through evaporation. The fan plays a critical role - it accelerates airflow, expels warm, moist air, and draws in cooler air to maintain optimal water temperatures for efficient heat exchange. Without efficient fans, cooling performance drops, energy use rises, and system reliability suffers. Aad Tech’s EC axial fan systems, paired with smart controllers, ensure consistent airflow, modular redundancy, and precise demand-based operation. This results in lower power consumption, improved cooling efficiency, and longer equipment life, making Aad Tech retrofits a future-ready solution for modern industries.
Significantly reduce power consumption and OPEX with high-efficiency fans.
Multiple small axial fans ensure optimised cooling performance.
Modular design provides built-in redundancy, so operations continue even if one fan is offline.
