Chemsearch, a leading global provider of industrial and commercial maintenance products,is helping companies to lower the energy consumption of HVAC systems by as much as 40%.Chemsearch is improving the performance and energy efficiency of buildings cooling systems, by cleaning up dirty cooling towers and eliminating scale deposits.

Sydney,Australia, (MMD Newswire) September 28, 2011 --- NCH Corporation and Chemsearch are removing a major cause of lost efficiency in the manufacturing sector, inefficient cooling surfaces.The inefficiency comes from a fine layer of lime (calcium carbonate) bonded to the cooling fins.

This layer is formed by successive evaporative cycles depositing microscopic amounts of lime (found naturally in water).The sum of these cycles, leave a progressively thicker layer of scale, further decreasing efficiency.Regular maintenance of the cooling fins is recommended to prevent the reduction in efficiency caused by lime scale.Chemsearch supplies products to remove the build-up of scale, and help to restore cooling fins to optimum efficiency.

Many people overlook the role a clean cooling ...
... tower plays in the performance and energy efficiency of a building's cooling system. In a typical building, the HVAC system accounts for about 45 percent of utility costs, with the chiller being the single largest consumer of electricity.Since chillers use about five times the energy of the cooling tower, more attention is usually paid to the chiller. However, maintaining a clean cooling tower is equally important in the energy efficiency equation.
