Heat exchanger descaling & Tube Cleaning
Essential to maintaining and cleaning heat exchangers to keep them at optimum efficiency.
Heat exchanger systems operating at peak efficiency chiller plants & facilities must clean their tubes thoroughly and regularly to keep them clear of scales , fouling & deposits. Such deposits can drastically limit the system’s ability to transfer heat, driving operating costs substantially higher.
WEATHER MAKERS have a skilled team to carry out descaling of heat exchangers very effectively without damaging tubes. We are fully equipped with highly acclaimed GOODWAY tube cleaning system for cleaning tubes. We use certified descaling chemicals sourced from VEOLIA which is effective to remove extremely hard product build-up from heat transfer tubes.
We utilize Goodway tube cleaning tools for our chiller maintenance and brush cleaning.
Condenser and Chiller Services has designed our own custom-made brushes for cleaning heavily fouled condenser and chiller tubes. In many cases, these special cleaning brushes have actually saved our customers from tube failure and expensive retubing costs. We use specialized brushes with different bristle sizes, consistencies, and materials such as nylon or steel etc.—to provide the most effective cleaning for every chiller system we encounter.
Our chiller tube cleaning technicians will:
- Valve off your system’s chiller
- Drain the condenser and/or evaporator
- Remove the heads and end covers with proper rigging equipment
- Brush clean all condenser and/or evaporator tubes
- Clean all gasket surfaces, replacing gaskets as necessary
- Reassemble the system
Should it be requested, we can also eddy current test the tubes after cleaning to check for damaged or deteriorating tubes. We can also plug, or replace, severely damaged tubes should any be found.
