Repairing Evapco Cooling Towers
Evapco has made many versions of its cooling towers over the years. Our technicians check the model and serial number, review known issues for that model family and test before replacing parts, so you only pay for what is actually needed.
How we repair your Evapco Cooling Tower
A cooling tower rejects heat from a chiller or process water loop by spraying warm water over fill media while fans pull air through, cooling the water by evaporation. A cooling tower typically includes a compressor, condenser and evaporator coils, fans, a capacitor and contactor, and a thermostat, or a water pump and pads on evaporative coolers. A technician checks airflow, electrical parts and refrigerant pressures, and inspects drains and coils.
Cooling failures in offices, server rooms and restaurants affect staff, equipment and customers, so commercial cooling calls are prioritized.

Common Evapco Cooling Tower problems we fix
What usually causes each symptom, and what our technician checks to confirm it.
Fan vibration or noise
- Likely causes
- Unbalanced or damaged fan blades, worn gearbox bearings, a misaligned drive shaft, or loose motor mounts.
- What our technician checks
- Vibration readings are taken, blade pitch and condition are inspected, and gearbox oil and alignment are checked.
Basin overflowing or running dry
- Likely causes
- A stuck makeup water float valve, a failed level control, or excessive drift and bleed.
- What our technician checks
- The makeup valve and level controls are tested and bleed-off rates are verified.
Excessive drift or water spray
- Likely causes
- Missing or damaged drift eliminators, overflowing distribution basins, or high fan speed with clogged fill.
- What our technician checks
- Drift eliminators are inspected and the hot water distribution system is checked for overflow.
Water leaving the tower too warm
- Likely causes
- Clogged or scaled fill, uneven water distribution from plugged nozzles, a failed fan or drive, or high wet-bulb conditions.
- What our technician checks
- The technician measures range and approach, inspects nozzles and fill, and verifies fan speed and airflow.
Scale, algae or slime on fill
- Likely causes
- Poor water treatment, insufficient bleed-off, or a failed chemical feed pump.
- What our technician checks
- Water chemistry is tested, chemical feed equipment is checked, and fill condition is assessed for cleaning or replacement.
Basin heater or freeze problems
- Likely causes
- A failed basin heater or thermostat, a low water cutoff fault, or stagnant sections freezing in winter.
- What our technician checks
- Heater elements and controls are tested and low water cutoffs are verified before cold weather.
Quick checks you can do safely
- Check that the tower fan is running when the chiller is loaded.
- Look at the basin water level and makeup valve.
- Note any unusual vibration, noise or water spray from the tower.
- Confirm the chemical treatment system has product and power.
- Clear leaves and debris from the basin screens.
Safety first: Cooling tower water can harbor Legionella bacteria, and fans and drives must be locked out before anyone enters the tower.
