    Why Water Safety Is More Than Testing And Chemicals

    Written byMicheal Dodson

    With the global pandemic and variants of viruses being spread via aerosolized and aspirated droplets, water safety is more critical now than at any other time in our global history. Waterborne pathogens found in water systems include building sprinklers, water features, fountains, and delivery pipes. Anywhere water is stored, left to sit, or is used intermittently, or held in pipes is subject to the creation of biofilms. These hard-to-remove biofilms allow the bacteria to grow and multiply in a protected shell until eventually released and is aerosolized through various point-of-use devices.

    Do You Enjoy Triple Rinsing?

    Written bySean Robbins

    Your Containers and Drums? For any cooling tower maintenance, scale control is crucial. Normally scale control is done using liquids that contain antiscalants and corrosion inhibitors. It is a good enough method, but hardly the most convenient. Adding chemicals to the cooling towers, especially the ones on the roof, can be tough. Furthermore, the drums…
