Run your heat exchangers at top efficiency
Regularly scheduled cleaning of your heat exchangers will restore efficiency, conserve energy, and reduce the risk of costly repairs, replacement, and heating system downtime.
We eliminate the need to dissemble the tube bundle by cleaning chemically, minimized downtime, leaks and hassle for our customers. Our chemical cleaning solution is biodegradable and safe to dispose on any drain.
A detailed report outlining findings and recommendations, as well as full inventory of the heat exchangers is the deliverable of every heat exchanger maintenance project.
Scope of Work
Drain
Drain the heat exchanger to remove accumulated sediment, heat exchange medium and allow for visual inspection.
Pre-Inspection
Pressure test to confirm that the tube bundle is tight and worth cleaning. It also gives us the opportunity for photo documentation of the heat exchanger before cleaning. During the pre-inspection we also look for large deficiencies which would require disassembly and repair, or complete replacement.
Cleaning
Cleaning of the heat exchange surface happens in place, and generally does not require disassembly. Biodegradable cleaning and descaling chemicals are circulated, gently dissolving mud, scale, and other contaminants.
Flushing
The heat exchanger is then flushed with water to remove any traces of the chemical used, along with any contaminants or residues that would have been dislodged from the heat exchanger surfaces during the cleaning phase.
Post Inspection
Post inspection allows for an “after” condition to be documented before the heat exchanger is closed up. We also performed an additional leak test to make sure that the tube bundle remains sound.
