Commercial Cooling Tower Repair in Orange, CA

Your cooling tower is the heart of commercial heat rejection. When it falters, chilled water temperatures rise, energy costs spike, and critical processes risk downtime. #1 AC Guys provides end-to-end commercial cooling tower repair in Orange, CA—built on 80+ years of engineering experience and factory training with Fujitsu (Japan), Mitsubishi Electric (Thailand), Midea (China), Gree (China), and Haier (China). We apply precise diagnostics and meticulous repair methods to restore capacity, reduce drift and scale, and safeguard occupant health and comfort.

What we repair and optimize

• Mechanical systems: fans, belts, shafts, bearings, gearboxes, motors, and vibration isolation
• Hydraulics: distribution decks, basins, sweeper piping, strainers, make-up valves, and overflows
• Heat exchange: fill media, nozzles, drift eliminators, louvers, and casing panels
• Controls and efficiency: VFDs, BAS integration, staging, and setpoint strategy
• Water quality readiness: scale, biofilm, and corrosion mitigation in coordination with your water treatment vendor

Whether your tower suffers from scaling, biological growth, plume/drift issues, poor airflow, abnormal vibration, or rising approach temperatures, our team isolates the root cause and restores efficient heat rejection.

AC PRO-compatible solutions

If your facility standards specify AC PRO components or supplies, we integrate and source accordingly—aligning with your procurement guidelines while maintaining OEM-grade fit and function. Our goal is a durable, serviceable repair that meets spec and performs.

Diagnostics that prevent repeat failures

• Thermal performance checks: approach/delta-T, flow verification, and load matching
• Airside assessments: fan pitch, motor amps, vibration, blade balance, and shroud integrity
• Waterside assessments: nozzle patterns, fill condition, basin hygiene, bypass operation
• Controls review: sensor calibration, VFD tuning, and anti-short-cycling logic

Findings are documented with photos, readings, and prioritized actions so you can plan with confidence.

Refurbishment and life-extension

When full replacement isn’t practical, targeted refurbishment can add years of productive life. We replace damaged fill, upgrade drift eliminators, rebuild gearboxes, install new motors and drives, recondition basins, and correct distribution to recover capacity and reduce water and energy waste.

Health, safety, and compliance

Healthy air and water are core to our mission. We implement safe shutdown, lockout/tagout, confined-space awareness, and sanitary work practices. We coordinate with your water treatment vendor to help control Legionella risk and protect occupants and staff, aligning with industry best practices and local requirements.
