After moving our company into a new facility, we discovered that all the 20 split systems had been neglected for a very long time. The amount of contamination and dirt we encountered in the in- and outdoor units was substantial and our expectations for the Goodway Coilpro CC-400HF Hi Flo Coil Cleaner were met from the very first application on. With Goodway’s coil cleaner, we cleaned HVAC outdoor condenser unit coils and cleaned the removable indoor unit parts like blower wheels, trays, screens etc.

According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, energy costs are second only to personnel costs in K-12 school district operating budgets nationwide. To reduce energy consumption district-wide, a Texas School District committed to finding ways to become more efficient with their buildings, both in new construction design and in existing buildings.

Goodway's GDS-C40 descaling pump and ScaleBreak®-MP chemical descaler work together to keep a national sport's arena's chillers operating efficiently. As a result of maintaining the chillers properly energy and money are saved.

Brazed plate heat exchangers perform in many capacities, in this case study they were being utilized to cool flue gas.  Brazed plate heat exchangers transfer energy with high efficiency and minimal thermal loss. When operating in environments where poor water quality occurs, or with high temperatures, scale deposits from minerals within the water source may fall out of suspension and adhere to the heat transfer surface, creating an insulating barrier. This may have a detrimental impact on the heat exchanger’s performance and efficiency. In addition to efficiency loss, continued scale build can act as a breeding ground for particulate fouling which can result in corrosion issues. The facility realized efficiencies had fallen far below expected levels and recognized a cleaning was needed.

Steam condensers by nature include a large volume of tubes. For one cogeneration power plant in New York, that means over 4,000 tubes for the condenser serving the 25-megawatt steam turbine. Keeping those tubes clean is a big job with regular maintenance, but can be near impossible when something goes wrong. Ken heads operations at the cogeneration plant. When the plant experienced a drop in efficiency, he knew it was time to find a different cleaning solution.

Grant Bacon knew there was a problem last summer when the company couldn’t keep its injection molding machines cool. Bacon, a manufacturing engineer with Elite Plastics, a division of GM Nameplate, is responsible for implementing lean manufacturing processes in the injection molding division.
