Keeping your HVAC system in top shape involves more than just a simple cleaning routine. While regular cleaning is essential, disinfecting your condenser coils is equally crucial for ensuring optimal performance and extending the life of your system. Here’s why you shouldn’t skip this critical step: 🐾 Animal Interference: Did you know that animals often urinate on condenser coils? This might seem harmless, but their urine can lead to significant corrosion over time, compromising the integrity of your HVAC system. The resulting damage can be costly and time-consuming to repair. 🔧 Enhanced Performance and Efficiency: A clean condenser coil operates more efficiently, improving the overall performance of your HVAC system. Clean coils facilitate better heat exchange, reducing the workload on your system and leading to lower energy consumption and utility bills. 🧪 Using D7 for Superior Results: D7 is designed to neutralize the smell of animal urine. By eliminating these odors, D7 discourages animals from marking the same spot repeatedly, providing an added layer of protection for your condenser coils. Its disinfecting properties ensure that your coils are not only clean but also free from harmful contaminants. #Decon7 #PutSomeD7OnIt #HVAC #Efficiency #Maintenance #HomeImprovement #CleanAndDisinfect #AnimalProtection

The Cicadas are coming in 2024 but so are we! Protect cooling towers from bugs that can clog and obstruct air flow, increase organic debris, and elevate bacteria levels. We are passing along this important announcement from one of our key suppliers, Goodway. We work as a team to solve problems with both equipment and service expertise. Goodway shares the same values as Beacon Industrial Services. It’s one great name behind another. Their message about cicada bugs is vital to hear. It’s about protecting your cooling towers. It’s a bug, not a feature. Please read what Goodway has announced and call us to prepare in advance. The emergence of two broods of cicadas this spring will create challenges for HVAC systems in facilities, especially in the mid-west and south-east regions of the US. The accumulation of cicadas around cooling towers can clog the fill obstructing air flow and increase organic debris in basins, elevating bacteria levels including Legionella. “The effectiveness and cleanliness of cooling towers has a significant impact on chiller efficiency,” said Tim Kane, President and CEO of Goodway Technologies. “While routine cleaning is always important, it’s also critical to look at the potential impact of the double brood of cicadas in your area and determine how it influences your maintenance plan.” Ongoing maintenance can help mitigate the risk of Legionella outbreaks while also improving system efficiency. Here are some additional best practices when it comes to cooling tower maintenance. Five Steps to Proper Cooling Tower Maintenance: 1. Inspect towers at least monthly. 2. Clean tower basin surfaces. 3. Descale the fill. 4. Clean the fill. 5. Disinfect the tower. Increasing the frequency of cleaning and maintenance of your cooling towers will be key to maintaining system efficiency and facility safety in the coming months. Using the right equipment and having a regular cleaning schedule can help you to keep up with these pending swarms that much easier. We have your back: Beacon Industrial Services, your cooling tower cleaning experts Need help? Contact us today and talk with our experts. Contact Lela Klajman at 888-671-3939 today to schedule your cooling tower cleaning.

Cooling tower’s are prone to and one of the main sources for the growth of Legionella bacteria which spread via droplets of water in the air and while they are primarily located outside, if they become contaminated with this dangerous bacteria, it can enter buildings through ventilation systems, door/ window openings, and other areas. Due to this serious health concern, operators & facility managers should take proper steps to inspect and maintain their HVAC systems to minimize the risk of Legionnaires’ disease. #hcts #coolingtower #Legionella #LegionnairesDisease #bacteria #publichealth #healthandsafety #safework #safety #Ontario #hvac #hvacmaintenance #hvacservice #industrialservice #industrialserviceprovider #equipment #equipmentmaintenance #operation #propertymanager #operator #buildingowner #facilitymanager #facilityservices #buildingservices #routinemaintenance #industrialequipment #buildingmaintenance

Your cooling tower’s fill media is designed to increase the surface area and contact between air & water and when it becomes clogged/ fouled the air & water flow becomes restricted which diminishes it’s cooling capacity, overall operation and can promote the growth of Legionella bacteria. If your cooling tower fill looks like the images below, or you’re experiencing a decline in cooling/ increase in energy consumption contact us at 905-515-5879 / info@hcts.ca #hcts #coolingtower #Legionella #fillmedia #fouling #debris #bacteria #publichealth #healthandsafety #clean #air #water #Ontario #hvac #hvacmaintenance #hvacservice #industrialservice #industrialserviceprovider #equipment #equipmentmaintenance #operation #propertymanager #operator #buildingowner #facilitymanager #facilityservices #buildingservices #routinemaintenance #industrialequipment #buildingmaintenance
