As the summer months approach, your cooling system is about to face its toughest test of the year. Neglecting maintenance now could lead to higher energy bills, inefficient cooling, and costly breakdowns when demand is at its peak.
Here’s how you can prepare your cooling towers, RTUs, and HVAC components for the summer heat—and why proactive maintenance is the key to efficiency and reliability.
Cooling towers accumulate dirt, scale, and biological growth that reduce heat transfer efficiency and cause unnecessary strain on your system. Left unchecked, this buildup can also contribute to legionella bacteria growth, posing health risks.
A professional cleaning removes mineral deposits and biological contaminants, ensuring your cooling tower operates at peak efficiency and keeps your system running smoothly.
Your rooftop unit’s (RTU) coils play a crucial role in heat exchange, but dirt, debris, and corrosion can significantly reduce their ability to cool efficiently.
Dirty coils force your RTU to work harder, leading to:
✅ Higher energy consumption
✅ Increased strain on compressors
✅ Reduced cooling capacity
Spring cleaning for your RTU coils means a longer lifespan and lower energy costs throughout the summer.
Clogged condensate drain lines are one of the most overlooked maintenance tasks—until you find water pooling around your system!
Blocked drain lines can lead to:
🚨 Water damage and leaks
🚨 Mold and bacteria growth
🚨 System shutdowns due to overflow sensors
A simple check now can prevent major headaches later.
Waiting until your system fails during peak summer heat is not an option. Proactive maintenance now ensures:
✔️ Optimal cooling performance
✔️ Lower energy bills
✔️ Extended equipment lifespan
