Using a regular program of biocides can drastically reduce problems with bacteria, but proper maintenance, including a twice yearly cleaning is generally advised for best practice and safety. In terms of professional documentation and guidance, the United States Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s Technical Manual agrees with this, recommending that all cooling towers should be subject to a thorough cleaning at least twice a year.

Professional Cooling Tower Cleaning from Penn Jersey

Penn Jersey take a thorough approach to professional cooling tower cleaning. It isn’t simply about removing bacteria and corrosion, but the future health of the tower and helping to prevent further build-up of organisms. Thorough disinfection and cleaning of the site is essential to make sure this does not happen and your cooling tower and associated systems stay fully operational.

Penn Jersey Cooling Tower Fan Housing Cleaning Process

Chemical treatment of the fan housing in cooling towers is an important step to take, but this alone cannot ensure the prevention of bacteria taking hold again. Therefore, it is important that the fan housing should be cleaned thoroughly and disinfected carefully before it is treated with chemical agents.

Proper Maintenance of Cooling Tower Basin

Cooling Tower basins also need regular and thorough cleaning to keep them in check. These are areas which come into contact with large amounts of cooling water. Within this water, bacteria can quickly form. The water in cooling tower basins also tends to be richer in oxygen and this also increases the risk of organism multiplication.

Regular cleaning and disinfecting followed by the correct addition of chemicals either at the start or end of the cooling season will ensure the endurance and consistent running of the cooling tower.

Penn Jersey Distribution Pan Maintenance and Care

The distribution pan and associated areas can often become impacted and clogged if not taken care of properly. The debris that collects in them is often removed with normal filtration, but this is not one hundred percent fool proof.

Distribution pans should always be cleaned thoroughly and opened up to improve water flow. A general reduction in water flow can often be associated with clogged pans and distributors. This in turn can result in the tower’s ability to cool water being drastically reduced. If distribution pans are left unchecked, general increases in energy usage can occur.
