FAQ
Common Questions About Cooling Tower Water Treatment Services for Houston Businesses
Why do cooling towers need dedicated water treatment?
Cooling towers concentrate minerals and organic material as water evaporates. Without treatment, this leads to scale, corrosion, and microbial growth that reduce efficiency, shorten equipment life, and can increase health and safety risks. A dedicated program keeps conditions under control.
What does a typical cooling tower treatment program include?
Programs often combine pretreatment of make-up water, scale and corrosion inhibitors, dispersants, and biocides, along with blowdown control and regular testing. Depending on your system, Culligan may also recommend filtration, side-stream filters, or membrane treatment.
Can cooling tower treatment help conserve water?
Yes. By controlling scaling and deposits, towers can operate at higher cycles of concentration, which reduces the amount of blowdown and make-up water required. This helps improve water-use efficiency and supports sustainability targets.
How often should cooling tower water be tested?
Testing frequency depends on system size and risk, but many facilities monitor key parameters at least weekly, with additional checks during peak cooling season or for critical systems. We can set up a schedule and reporting cadence that fits your operation.
Do you service both comfort cooling and process cooling towers?
We work with both. Culligan of Houston supports office buildings, hospitals, schools, industrial plants, data centers, and other facilities that rely on cooling towers or closed loops for comfort or process cooling.
Can you work with our existing cooling tower equipment?
In most cases, yes. We can evaluate your current towers, pretreatment, and controls, then design a treatment program that integrates with existing equipment. If upgrades are needed, we’ll recommend options and a phased plan.
