Why Your Cooling Tower Is Underperforming: 7 Root Causes
In industrial refrigeration and HVAC systems, the cooling tower is often the most overlooked component (until the chiller trips on high-pressure alarms). The financial penalty of neglect is immediate and severe: a mere 1°C increase in cooling water temperature can spike a chiller’s energy consumption by 2–3%. To master cooling tower troubleshooting, one must look […]
How Smart Control Systems Reduce Cooling Tower Operating Costs
Cooling towers are a requirement for much of industrial and commercial HVAC application. For everything from factories and computer centers to hospitals and skyscrapers, these systems are needed for thermal efficiency and rejection of heat. But they’re also one of the most energy-intensive components of the cooling system. As prices for energy increase and sustainability […]
