University Water Treatment Applications
Water treatment needs can be exceptionally diverse in a university setting, requiring different levels of quality and maintenance depending on the application.
Applications include:
- High-Volume HVAC Systems (Boilers & Chillers)
- Scientific and Research Laboratories (Autoclaves, Glassware Washers)
- Domestic Hot Water (Dorms, Dining Halls, Athletic Facilities)
- Wastewater management and discharge compliance
- Process equipment and cleaning (e.g., commercial laundries and food service)
Michigan universities often prioritize sustainability. Our programs are designed to help you reduce water consumption by optimizing cooling tower cycles and reducing blowdown waste, directly contributing to your campus’s overall sustainability and resource management goals.
Water Treatment on Campus
Some of the most common treatment methods for universities are:
- Cooling Tower and Boiler Water Programs: These are the primary focus for campus water management. Untreated water can lead to scale and corrosion, driving up energy bills and shortening equipment lifespan. We provide reliable chemical and non-chemical treatments to keep the entire campus infrastructure operating efficiently and reliably through all four Michigan seasons.
- UV and Specialized Filtration: Ultraviolet (UV) treatment and advanced filtration are used to enhance water safety by neutralizing biological threats. Given the need to protect large student populations and address local concerns (like the presence of Legionella in complex plumbing systems), these methods are key components of a robust, comprehensive water management plan.
- Water Softening: Simple water softening systems are essential in areas of the state with high mineral content. This protects residential plumbing, food service equipment, and laundry facilities from excessive scaling, which reduces maintenance costs and prolongs the life of fixtures and appliances across the campus.
