Cooling Towers and Steam Boilers

Dantek designs and delivers cooling tower water treatment regimes that prevent scale, corrosion, and bacterial growth – helping you stay compliant, efficient, and safe.

All solutions are tailored to your system and meet ACoP L8 and BS2486 standards. We supply the required chemicals and, if needed, offer a fully managed maintenance package for complete peace of mind.

At Dantek Environmental, we’re committed to reducing water waste and environmental impact without compromising performance.

We also provide boiler water treatment services, ensuring accurate feedwater chemistry to prevent failures, maintain steam quality, and improve thermal efficiency.

Cooling towers are essential for reliable heat exchange – but without routine maintenance, they become hotspots for scale, corrosion, and Legionella bacteria. That’s why cleaning and disinfection aren’t optional – they’re required under ACoP L8 and HSG 274.
Dantek Environmental provides fully compliant cooling tower cleaning services to protect your people, plant, and reputation. Our treatments support performance, safety, and environmental responsibility.

Why It Matters:

• Prevents Legionella and ensures full regulatory compliance
• Improves efficiency and reduces running costs
• Prolongs equipment lifespan
• Minimises chemical use and conserves water

Our Proven 3-Step Process:

1. Pre-clean Disinfection
   The system is isolated and treated with biocides (like Dantek Chlor15) to suppress microbial activity and ensure safe access.

2. Manual Cleaning
   All accessible areas – including troughs, drift eliminators, and sumps – are jet-washed and vacuumed. Packing is inspected and deep cleaned if required.

3. Final Disinfection & Recommissioning
   After cleaning, the system is refilled, disinfected, and recommissioned using the appropriate water treatment chemicals. All activity is logged to support your ACoP L8 compliance.

How Often Should Cooling Towers Be Cleaned?

Cleaning schedules depend on system use, environment, and the outcome of your Legionella risk assessment. As a general guide:

• High-risk environments – every 3 months
• Comfort cooling systems – twice per year
• Clean industrial systems – at least once per year

Our specialists will recommend the right cooling tower cleaning frequency to keep your site safe, efficient, and fully compliant with ACoP L8.
