Commercial Legionella Prevention (Cooling Towers) in Fullerton

Cooling towers can aerosolize water—making Legionella control a mission‑critical responsibility for building owners and facility managers. In Fullerton’s busy commercial corridors, our team helps you protect people and operations with a rigorous, repeatable program that aligns with ASHRAE Standard 188 and CDC best practices while improving tower efficiency and extending asset life. Your indoor environment—and your reputation—deserve nothing less.

What’s Included in Our Legionella Prevention Program

• Site‑specific risk assessment: mapping equipment, make‑up water, loads, and drift pathways.
• ASHRAE 188–aligned Water Management Plan: roles, control measures, setpoints, and verification.
• Routine inspections: visual checks, biofilm observation, and mechanical performance review.
• Cooling tower cleaning: basin, fill, louvers, and distribution decks with targeted descaling.
• Disinfection strategy: oxidizing and non‑oxidizing biocide rotation with residual tracking.
• Scale, corrosion, and biofouling control: balanced chemistry for stable heat‑exchange.
• Automation and monitoring: controllers, sensors, and alerts to maintain tight setpoints.
• Documentation and reporting: logs, deviations, and corrective actions ready for audits.

We tailor each plan to your site—tower type, load profile, makeup water quality, and occupancy risk. This ensures effective control with predictable costs and measurable results.
For high‑risk facilities, we can implement enhanced verification, more frequent testing, and contingency response protocols.

Testing and Verification

Testing confirms performance and keeps your team ahead of risk. We coordinate Legionella sampling via accredited labs and employ rapid screening when needed, then act on results per your Water Management Plan. Ongoing verification protects occupants and provides confidence for stakeholders and auditors.

• Legionella culture and rapid methods (as specified in your WMP)
• ATP and dip‑slide surveillance to track biofouling trends
• Continuous monitoring of conductivity, pH, ORP, and temperature
• Trend analysis and threshold‑based corrective actions

Transparent reporting closes the loop—every inspection, test, and adjustment is documented so you can demonstrate due diligence and compliance.
When results trigger action, our engineers respond quickly to restore control.

Cleaning, Disinfection, and Mechanical Optimization

Effective prevention blends chemistry with mechanical excellence. We perform scheduled and corrective cleanings, targeted descaling, and sludge removal, and we optimize drift eliminators, nozzles, and distribution to reduce aerosol formation. Proper flow, balanced chemistry, and clean heat‑transfer surfaces work together to suppress biofilm and keep towers efficient.

AC PRO Equipment & Compatibility

If your project specifies AC PRO supplies or compatible components, we can source and install the required parts to meet design and service standards. Our engineers are experienced integrating AC PRO‑sourced accessories, controls, and service materials into comprehensive cooling tower programs—streamlining procurement and minimizing downtime in Fullerton.
