2. Cooling tower water treatment is essential to the overall operation of the cooling tower. But how do you know when it is time to treat the cooling tower water? Here are a few warning signs that will tell you a cooling water treatment system is needed for your plant. • Cooling tower water treatment is essential to the overall operation of the cooling tower. Failure to properly treat the cooling tower water on a regular basis or whenever needed will lead to a variety of issues including but not limited to corrosion, fouling, organic growth, and scaling. All of these issues can not only cause plant downtime, decreased performance, and reduced plant productivity, but they can likewise lead to costly repair and replacement.

4. When you are reusing water supply But how do you know when it is time to treat the cooling tower water? Here are a few warning signs that will tell you a cooling water treatment system is needed for your plant. • If you are trying to reuse or recycle the water instead of flushing it out into the environment, you will need to properly and regularly treat the cooling tower blowdown. You may need to consult a water treatment specialist or contact the best cooling tower company in India for this.

5. Water gets too acidic or too alkaline • Cooling tower water needs to be regulated and has to stay within the neutral pH level. When the cooling tower water gets acidic, it will increase the likelihood and speed of corrosion and scale formation. • Having a too high or too low pH or alkaline level would mean that it is about time to treat the water. Please note, though, that the proper water alkalinity greatly depends on the source of the water and the type of cooling system that you use.

6. Microbial growth in the cooling tower water • The water in the cooling tower is susceptible to the growth of microorganisms and can be a breeding ground for algae, fungi, and harmful bacteria like legionella. Microbial growth, if left unaddressed, can cause corrosion, fouling and other system issues. If you notice the growth of bacteria in the cooling tower water, you may need to test and treat the water even before the scheduled date.

8. Presence of high hardness and total dissolved solids (TDS) • According to the water cooling towers manufacturers in India, the presence or build-up of high hardness and total dissolved solids (TDS) on heat transfers or heat exchange surfaces, and other internal piping indicates that a cooling tower water treatment is needed. • TDS, whether it is the form of calcium carbonate or not, can cause heavy scaling. Over time, scaling can clog up and damage the internal pipes, heat exchange surfaces, and even the entire cooling system. It likewise greatly reduce the efficiency of the cooling tower, minimize heat dispersal, and lead to failure or downtime. Scaling can likewise cause a hike in energy consumption.

9. Treating the cooling tower water prevents the build-up of solids and hardness. And in the case when these solids and hardness are already in the system, water and makeup water chemistry treatment will remove them properly in blowdown.

10. Endnote: • Proper and regular maintenance and water treatment do not only help maintain the good working condition of the cooling tower, they likewise help it run properly, smoothly, and at its peak efficiency. Moreover, proper maintenance and water treatment also help you make sure that the cooling tower parts are free from any damage or threat, thus avoiding costly repair and replacement and ensuring a longer lifespan.
