Cooling water programs
Cooling Tower & HVAC Water Treatment
Water treatment programs for cooling towers and HVAC systems focused on scale, corrosion, biological control, monitoring, and preventive service.
Commercial & Industrial
Manage Changing Cooling-Water Conditions
Open recirculating cooling systems concentrate minerals as water evaporates and are exposed to air and environmental contamination. Treatment requires coordinated attention to water chemistry, conductivity, blowdown, chemical feed, biological control, and equipment condition.
El Paso Water Tek provides cooling tower water testing, chemical treatment, conductivity monitoring, pretreatment support, and scheduled preventive maintenance for commercial and institutional HVAC applications.
Why it matters
A Practical, Serviceable Approach
Balanced Control
Scale, corrosion, biological activity, and water use are considered as parts of one operating program.
Testing & Monitoring
Routine checks provide the information needed to respond to changing load and water conditions.
Preventive Attention
Feed equipment, controls, chemical inventory, and visible system conditions are reviewed during service.
What to expect

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions about cooling tower & hvac water treatment? Start here, then contact our team for advice specific to your water and equipment.
What problems does cooling tower water treatment address?
A complete program is intended to manage scale, corrosion, biological activity, deposition, and the concentration of dissolved minerals in recirculating water.
Why is conductivity monitored in a cooling tower?
Conductivity is commonly used as an indicator of dissolved mineral concentration. It helps operators understand cycles of concentration and manage blowdown appropriately.
Does a cooling tower program include biological treatment?
Biological control is an important part of many cooling tower programs. The specific approach depends on the system, operation, site requirements, and applicable safety procedures.
Can pretreatment help a cooling tower?
Pretreatment may help manage makeup-water conditions before water enters the cooling system. Whether it is appropriate depends on water quality, operating goals, and system design.
