Cooling Towers
As of the summer of 2018, no new regulations have been put into place regarding the treatment of cooling towers in Connecticut to help in the prevention of legionella and the spread of Legionnaire’s Disease. Legislation has already been put into place in New York State and the New York City area and introduced again into the New Jersey State Senate on January 25, 2018. With such a close proximity to New York City, we anticipate that within the next few years Connecticut will move forward on passing more stringent laws regarding the treatment of all cooling towers.
NuChem strongly recommends that if you own a building with a cooling tower you begin to put into place now a plan regarding its treatment and the prevention of legionella growth. At a minimum, we recommend that your tower be cleaned and sanitized a minimum of once yearly while in operation and legionella testing be performed every 90 days. Taking these steps now will help you along the path to compliance when these regulations become law. Contact us today to set up a free quote and site inspection of your cooling tower.
