Quick answer: Midwest Cooling Towers (MCT) services and maintains factory-assembled cooling towers of every major brand, including Evapco, Marley, and BAC. Our field service staff and component inventory are based at our Chickasha, Oklahoma headquarters, so help is close when a tower needs attention.
Most facilities do not get to choose the brand of cooling tower they end up with. The tower comes with the plant, the property, or the project. When it needs service, the name on the nameplate matters less than a simple question: who can keep it running?
That question is behind a new focus at MCT. We are expanding our factory-assembled cooling tower service, and we are building it around one promise. We work on all brands, not just our own.
What is a factory-assembled cooling tower?
A factory-assembled cooling tower is built and assembled at the factory before it ships to the site. These units are generally much smaller than field-erected towers, which are built on site. Evapco, Marley, and BAC are three of the brands our team services.
Why should cooling tower service not depend on the brand?
A cooling tower is one of the most critical assets in an industrial facility, and an unplanned shutdown affects the whole operation. If your service provider only works on its own equipment, you may end up managing several vendors across several brands.
All-brand service gives you one team to call, whatever name is on the tower. It also means your service plan does not have to change if you add or replace equipment from a different manufacturer.
What does all-brand cooling tower service include?
Our factory-assembled service covers four areas.
Preventative maintenance and repairs
Regular inspections and timely repairs help catch small problems before they turn into costly ones. We provide this for all major brands.
Component replacement and stocking
We keep an extensive inventory of components in stock, which supports fast delivery when a part needs to be replaced.
Field service and emergency response
Our field service staff work from the same Chickasha headquarters as our components. When a tower goes down, the people and the parts you need are close to the job.
Factory-assembled tower sales
For facilities ready to invest in a new unit, MCT now offers the CCS Phoenix PL, covered in more detail below.
Why does a local service team matter?
Downtime is costly, and distance makes it worse. Our field service staff and component inventory are based in Chickasha, Oklahoma, which keeps response close and parts within reach.
We are launching this factory-assembled service in Oklahoma first, with plans to expand as the offering grows. New building construction is underway at our Chickasha facility to support it.
How can you keep a factory-assembled cooling tower running well?
Whatever the brand, a regular routine helps. These five checks are a good starting point.
- Inspect the fill and drift eliminators. Look for damage, buildup, or wear. Excessive water loss can be an early sign that something needs attention.
- Review your water treatment. Scale, corrosion, and biological growth can shorten equipment life, so check results regularly and look for signs of them. See the CDC’s guidance on cooling tower water management for more detail.
- Check the fans, motors, and drives. Listen for unusual noise and watch for vibration.
- Look at the basin and water distribution. Water should spread evenly, and the basin should be clean.
- Keep a record and schedule service. Track what you find and plan preventative visits, rather than waiting for a breakdown.
If any of these checks turns up something you are unsure about, a service visit can confirm what is going on. Contact our team to set one up.
What if you are ready for a new factory-assembled tower?
MCT now offers the CCS Phoenix PL, a factory-assembled cooling tower built on the same field-proven FRP materials as the CCS Phoenix. CCS, or Composite Cooling Solutions, is MCT’s sister company.
For companies ready to invest in a new factory-assembled tower, the CCS Phoenix PL adds a new option alongside the all-brand service MCT already provides. It is CTI certified, and each tower is manufactured, assembled, and shipped from our facility in Oklahoma. Because we keep components in stock, new towers can be delivered in as little as a few weeks.
What experience and quality standards stand behind the service?
MCT holds ISO 9001:2015 and Women Business Enterprise (WBE) certifications and is a member of the Cooling Technology Institute (CTI). Our leadership team brings more than 55 years of combined experience in the cooling tower industry. To see the full range of what we do, visit our capabilities page.
