Cooling Tower Treatment and Optimization:
Effective water treatment is an essential part of the preventative maintenance and optimization program for a cooling water system. A customized water treatment program from Water Tech - Chem-Aqua protects your cooling water system from corrosion, deposits, and microbiological growth; maximizes the life, efficiency, reliability, and safety of your cooling water system; and minimizes energy, water, and maintenance costs. Water Tech - Chem-Aqua provide innovative and effective treatment technologies for all types of cooling system designs.
Applications Include:
- Open recirculating systems - cooling towers, evaporative condensers, and fluid coolers
- Closed loops - chilled water, process loops, and thermal storage systems
- Once through systems
- Legionella risk reduction programs
- Solid scale, corrosion, and biocide treatment chemicals

Boiler Treatment and Optimization
Water treatment is an essential part of the preventive maintenance and optimization program for any boiler system. Even a small reduction in boiler efficiency due to scale deposits, excessive purges or condensate losses can result in a significant increase in fuel and operating costs. These costs can be high for your installations and excessive scale or corrosion can cause expensive damage, loss of production or unexpected shutdowns.
Water Tech - Chem-Aqua custom water treatment solution protect your boiler system from the damaging effects of corrosion, scale and entrainment, and provide safe, reliable and economical vapor protection. Water Tech - Chem-Aqua offer effective treatment programs for all types of heating systems and appliances.
Applications Include:
- Boilers burning fossil fuels or waste
- Electric Boilers
- Steam Boilers
- Online and offline cleaning programs
- Solid scale, corrosion, and oxygen scavenger treatment chemicals
- FDA / USDA Approved

SOLID WATER TREATMENT HANDICHEM® CHEMICALS:
The HandiChem System is a new generation water treatment solution that eliminates the handling, safety, and environmental concerns associated with using liquid chemicals in pails or drums.
- Reduces risk of injuries associated with drum handling, chemical spills, and splashes
- Smaller footprint simplifies transportation, storage, and installations in tight spaces
- Ideal for hard to access systems that require delivery up steps or through office spaces
- Less packaging, landfill waste, and transportation related greenhouse gas emissions
The HandiChem System uses the same actives as liquid programs. But instead of shipping water, chemical feed solution is made on site using HandiFeed Dissolving Feeders and high performance HandiPak solid concentrates.
HandiChem Solid programs are available for cooling towers, closed loop, and steam boiler systems.

CLOSED LOOP TREATMENT AND OPTIMIZATION:
Hot water, chilled water, tempered water, process water, and glycol filled closed loops are often ignored when considering a water treatment program, which can be a costly mistake. Closed loops that are not properly treated can cause significant corrosion damage. Closed loops that are leaking can waste water and energy while causing corrosion. These systems must be checked on a regular basis to confirm proper treatment level and system integrity. Water Tech - Chem-Aqua has the product line and technical expertise to recommend the appropriate treatment for the metallurgy in any closed loop system and monitor it after treatment is applied.

Equipment:
aquaDART® AUTOMATION CONTROL SYSTEMS:
The aquaDART Water Treatment Control System is state-of-the-art automation for monitoring and controlling water treatment programs to achieve maximum system protection and minimum operating costs. aquaDART Systems employ Direct Analysis and Response Technology (DART) to continuously monitor and adjust the water treatment program based on changing system demands. Real-time sensors are used to directly measure the cycles, inhibitor and oxidizing biocide concentrations, and other key parameters that determine scale, corrosion, and microbiological control. Custom control software continuously regulates blowdown and chemical feed, based on changes in system demand, and immediately communicates upset conditions. Web-enabled control software is standard to provide real-time, performance-based feedback and alerts.
Features and Benefits
- Complete water treatment automation system
- Continuously monitors and adjusts program based on system changes
- Automatic cycle and blowdown control
- Fluorescent traced inhibitor feed and control
- ORP based biocide feed verification and control
- Web-enabled monitoring and control software
- Cabinet and board mounted for easy installation
- Universal access controller not locked with proprietary software
BOARD MOUNTED CHEMICAL FEED AND CONTROL SYSTEMS:
Without properly engineered chemical feed equipment, it is hard to effectively manage treatment chemicals and system parameters. Water Tech - Chem-Aqua® Board Mounted Chemical Feed and Control Systems provide all of the components needed to treat a water system in a pre-assembled ready-to-install package. With our pre-assembled systems, the components come mounted on polypropylene boards ready for inlet and outlet connection upon arrival. This makes it faster and easier to properly install the water treatment system.
Unlike having to wait for each component to arrive from the manufacturer and then having to pay for a professional installation, all our chemical feed and control systems are pre-assembled with pumps, controllers, and flow manifolds on a single polypropylene board that is ready to be installed upon arrival.Standard Features
- Pre-assembled ready-to-install
- Pressure tested for leaks prior to shipment
- Pre-mounted on high density board
- Plumbing and electrical connections included
Advantages
- Standard or custom designs available
- Easy installation and reduced installation time
- Professional and quality service
- Fully stocked parts warehouse
- In-house technical support
READY-TO-INSTALL BOILER BLOWDOWN CONTROL ASSEMBLIES:
We supply a complete line of Chem-Aqua® boiler blowdown control systems designed to help reduce your fuel costs by better blowdown control. While too little blowdown can lead to scale and carryover, too much wastes fuel, water, and treatment chemicals. Due to the importance of proper installation, our RTI Boiler Blowdown Control Assemblies are especially popular.
These precision engineered systems help take the hassle and aggravation out of installation, as well as help ensure the blowdown control system operates correctly. Factors such as the sensor orientation, the distance between sensor and orifice union, the layout of the blowdown assembly piping, and the distance of the unit to the boiler all influence how well the system operates. Each RTI Boiler Blowdown Assembly is engineered with these important considerations as well as ease of installation in mind.
Features
- Steam rated motorized ball valve
- Microprocessor based blowdown controller
- Standard stainless steel conductivity sensor
- Optional sample cooler
- Pre-Assembled, Easy installation
- Better blowdown control
- Advanced and remote field communications
- Reduced fuel costs
