Crane Day at ETS — A Big Lift for Big Results
It’s not every day you see a 500-ton cooling tower lifted high above a building skyline, but at Engineered Temperature Solutions, it’s just part of the job.
Our team recently completed a major replacement project—removing an aging, 300-ton unit and installing a brand-new, high-efficiency 500-ton cooling tower.
Projects like this showcase what ETS does best: delivering precision, safety, and engineering excellence for Central Ohio’s commercial and industrial facilities.
From logistics coordination and crane setup to rigging, assembly, and commissioning, every step was managed by our experienced HVAC professionals.
These massive systems aren’t just impressive—they’re critical. Cooling towers regulate temperature and reject heat for systems like chillers, process cooling, and large-scale HVAC operations.
When they fail or fall behind on maintenance, the ripple effect can disrupt production, comfort, and energy efficiency across an entire building.
The Hidden Cost of Neglected Cooling Towers
One look at the rusted, corroded tower we removed tells the story: lack of maintenance can take a serious toll. Cooling towers operate outdoors, exposed to the elements, water, and constant thermal cycling.
Without regular service, issues like scale buildup, corrosion, biological growth, and failing fans or fill media can drastically shorten system lifespan.
In this case, the old tower had reached the end of its serviceable life. Years of wear and neglected preventive maintenance led to declining performance and higher energy costs—ultimately making replacement the only viable solution.
Routine inspection and maintenance can prevent that outcome. Proper water treatment, regular cleaning, and proactive component replacement extend system life, preserve energy efficiency, and help facility owners avoid emergency downtime.
Why Preventive Maintenance Matters
At ETS, we emphasize preventive maintenance not because it’s convenient—but because it’s cost-effective.
Regular cooling tower service helps:
Reduce energy use: Clean heat exchange surfaces improve system efficiency.
Prevent costly shutdowns: Early detection stops small issues from becoming system failures.
Maintain compliance: Proper care supports safety and environmental standards.
Maximize ROI: Extend the life of expensive mechanical assets.
Even with the best maintenance, though, all equipment eventually reaches its limit. When that time comes, Engineered Temperature Solutions has the expertise, manpower, and equipment to handle full replacements—safely, efficiently, and on schedule.
Full-Service Cooling Tower Solutions
This project highlights ETS’s full range of capabilities, from cooling tower repair and maintenance to turnkey replacement and new installations.
Our team is trained to work with top manufacturers like BAC, Evapco, and Marley, and we service both induced-draft and forced-draft configurations.
We provide:
Cooling tower installation & replacement
Preventive maintenance programs
Mechanical repairs (fans, pumps, motors, valves)
Water treatment system integration
Performance testing & seasonal startup/shutdown
Our technicians understand the unique challenges of commercial and industrial cooling systems, from manufacturing plants and data centers to office buildings and healthcare facilities.
Whether your system handles HVAC comfort cooling or process temperature control, we tailor every solution to your building’s load, layout, and operational needs.
Heavy Equipment, Expert Coordination
Lifting a 500-ton cooling tower isn’t just a show of strength—it’s a test of coordination.
The ETS team handled every detail, from crane mobilization and rigging to ensuring site safety and communication between ground and rooftop teams.
Our technicians worked closely with the crane operator to position the new tower perfectly into place, aligning with pre-set structural supports and piping. Within hours, the new system was secured, connected, and ready for final integration.
These kinds of large-scale projects require experience, precision, and teamwork—and that’s exactly what sets ETS apart.
Cooling Tower Installation Done Right
When a cooling tower nears end-of-life, replacement is your chance to improve performance—not just restore it.
ETS ensures every installation meets your facility’s cooling demands while improving energy efficiency and system reliability.
We handle everything from system design and equipment selection to final commissioning. Since we service and maintain the systems we install, our team knows how to keep them running at peak performance for years to come.
