Q&A

Q: How do I know if my building has a cooling tower?

A: A cooling tower is often part of larger buildings like hospitals, manufacturing plants, or office complexes. It’s typically a large, box-like structure located outside, possibly on the roof or in a mechanical yard. It uses water to help cool the building or industrial equipment. If your building has significant cooling needs and you notice water being used in the cooling process, there’s a good chance you have a cooling tower.

Q: What’s the problem with regular cooling towers?

A: Cooling towers can be big water and energy hogs. Over time, without proper treatment, they can suffer from issues like scaling (mineral buildup), corrosion, and even biological growth. These problems reduce efficiency, leading to higher energy bills and more frequent maintenance costs.

Q: How does Sinelabs help reduce these costs?

A: Sinelabs offers advanced water treatment systems that prevent these common issues. By keeping your cooling tower running clean and efficiently, you’ll use less water, lower your energy bills, and extend the life of your equipment. It’s like giving your cooling system a health boost that pays off in reduced operating costs.

Q: How much money can I actually save?

A: On average, companies that switch to Sinelabs’ technology see a reduction in water usage by 15-30%, which directly lowers their water bills. In addition, improved efficiency can lead to noticeable savings on your energy bills. For example, one of our clients, a manufacturing plant, saved 30% on their water use and saw their energy costs drop significantly​.
