Commercial Cooling Tower Repair in Santa Monica

Engineering‑First Diagnostics and Repair

Cooling towers fail for many reasons: scale and biofouling restrict heat transfer, motors and gearboxes wear out, and controls drift out of calibration. Our engineers start with data—approach temperature, fan speed, vibration, conductivity, water balance—to isolate the root cause and correct it with lasting repairs, not band‑aids.

• Loss of capacity and high approach temperatures
• Fan motor, gearbox, bearing, and belt failures
• VFD faults, control calibration, sensor and actuator issues
• Fill media degradation, clogged nozzles, poor water distribution
• Drift eliminator damage, plume and water loss concerns
• Basin corrosion, leaks, float/make‑up valve problems
• Pump alignment, strainers, and hydraulic imbalance

We use proven procedures and professional‑grade components, including AC PRO‑supplied parts where appropriate, to restore reliable operation and extend asset life.

Healthier Air and Water—Our Mission

Our company mission is healthy air for a healthier life. That’s why our cooling tower work emphasizes clean heat‑rejection, minimized aerosol carryover, and water quality best practices aligned with industry guidance. Better tower performance helps stabilize chilled‑water supply temperatures, reduce humidity loads, and support indoor air quality goals throughout your building.

In coastal Santa Monica, salt air and microclimates accelerate corrosion and biological growth. We address these realities with smarter materials selection, thorough cleaning, improved distribution, and drift control—helping reduce risk while boosting efficiency.

Upgrades That Pay Back

• High‑efficiency fan motors and VFD tuning for smoother starts and lower kW/ton
• Premium fill and drift eliminators to recover capacity and cut water loss
• Nozzle and distribution retrofits for uniform wetting
• Basin coatings and hardware to fight coastal corrosion
• Side‑stream filtration integration to control solids loading
• Controls optimization for staging, setpoints, and alarms

Our upgrades target measurable improvements in kW/ton, approach temperature, sound, and maintenance intervals—documented so you can see the ROI.

Commercial Sectors We Serve in Santa Monica

• Class A office and creative campuses near Downtown and Mid‑City
• Hospitality and multifamily along the oceanfront and in Ocean Park
• Studios, post‑production, and media facilities
• Retail and mixed‑use properties
• Healthcare clinics, fitness, and wellness spaces
• Education and lab/light‑science environments

We understand noise sensitivity, curb appeal, and environmental expectations in Santa Monica—delivering quiet, clean, and code‑compliant results.

Training, Heritage, and Quality

We are a fourth‑generation family of engineers with 80+ years in engineering. Our team has trained with manufacturers at Fujitsu (Japan), Mitsubishi Elektrik (Thailand), Midea (China), Gree (China), and Hier (China). That factory exposure shapes our disciplined workmanship, documentation, and safety culture. We apply the same rigor to cooling tower projects of all sizes, from rapid repairs to turnkey retrofits.

Our Process

• Assessment: Site walk, performance testing, vibration and electrical checks
• Plan: Root‑cause report with options—repair, retrofit, or optimization
• Action: Precise repairs using professional‑grade parts, including AC PRO‑supplied components as needed
• Validation: Startup, balancing, controls tuning, and performance verification
• Prevention: Maintenance program with seasonal preparation and predictive insights

Transparency is standard—clear scopes, timelines, and pricing so operations teams can plan around business hours and tenant needs.

Local, Fast, and Accountable

Based in Los Angeles, we dispatch quickly to Santa Monica, including Downtown, Pico, Ocean Park, Mid‑City, and Sunset Park. Our wider service area covers Los Angeles County and nearby regions: Orange County, Ventura County, and Western Riverside County. Count on prompt scheduling and communication that keeps your stakeholders informed.

Parts and Supply Advantage

We maintain strong supply access for commercial repairs and retrofits, leveraging AC PRO‑provided components alongside other professional‑grade sources to reduce downtime. From motors and drives to nozzles, fill, drift eliminators, sensors, and control hardware, we match parts to your tower’s operating conditions and compliance requirements.

Results You Can Measure

We benchmark before and after: approach temperature, fan kW, water use, drift control, noise, and maintenance intervals. You get a concise report with recommended next steps—so performance gains are documented and repeatable.
