“A typical 200 ton cooling tower operating 1,000 hours may assimilate more than 600 lbs. of particulate matter from airborne dust and the make-up water supply.”

INSTALLING OR REPAIRING A COOLING TOWER?

#1 – PREVENTS RISING ENERGY USE

#2 – REDUCES EXPENSIVE MAINTENANCE

#3 – INSTALLS EASILY WHEN YOU INSTALL OR UPGRADE THE TOWER

#4 – PREVENTS BUILD-UP THAT ATTRACTS BIO-CONTAMINANTS, INCLUDING LEGIONELLA

#5 – PAYS FOR ITSELF IN REDUCED COSTS

5 REASONS WHY A LAKOS SYSTEM IS A WISE INVESTMENT

ADD CONTINUOUS FILTRATION TO PROTECT SYSTEM EFFICIENCY & REDUCE MAINTENANCEWithout filtration, dirt buildup quickly degrades the performance of your tower, increasing energy costs and leading to costly cleanouts.

Automatic filtration keeps your tower efficient and eliminates a cumbersome maintenance task.

Particles enter a cooling tower and build-up throughout the system. Fouling in chiller tubes and heat exchangers requires the system to work harder (and use more energy) to achieve the same comfort level. In less than one year, energy costs can increase 10% or more. Continuous filtration keeps the system clean, as designed.

Muck-outs of cooling towers and chemical flushing are a big hassle. Bringing heat exchangers and cooling towers back to efficient operating conditions requires hours of maintenance and thousands of dollars. Let your tower system clean itself, automatically.

A turn-key package of filter equipment comes on a self-contained skid that fits easily at the tower or in the mechanical room.

Accumulated debris provides a host environment for bio-contaminants like Legionella and corrosive bacteria. Chemical water treatment cannot penetrate heavy build-up that hosts pathogens.

Enjoy a less than 2 year payback period on a LAKOS system, then enjoy the savings over the life of your cooling tower (15-20+ years).
