Chiller Service & Maintenance
Chiller Repair
Refrigerant circuit diagnosis, compressor issues, heat exchanger fouling, condenser water system problems, and controls faults identified at root cause and resolved completely. 24/7 emergency response available for chiller failures where downtime is not an option.
Refrigerant Management
Leak detection, repair, and recharge to manufacturer specifications. Full EPA Section 608 compliant refrigerant documentation on every service visit.
Cooling Tower Coordination
Condenser water system service coordinated with cooling tower maintenance for water-cooled chiller plants. Basin cleaning, water treatment review, and tower fan and motor service handled as part of a complete chiller plant maintenance program.
Preventive Maintenance
Scheduled maintenance programs covering refrigerant charge verification, oil analysis, heat exchanger inspection and cleaning, condenser water system review, electrical connection check, controls calibration, and full performance testing. Visit frequency structured around your equipment type, usage demands, and operational calendar.
Heat Exchanger Cleaning
Evaporator and condenser heat exchanger cleaning to restore heat transfer efficiency and prevent long-term tube degradation. Includes eddy current testing for tube condition assessment where warranted.
