Cooling Tower Rentals in Canada

From HVAC solutions to your processes, industrial applications generate significant amounts of heat. A cooling tower receives this heated water, cools it using environmental air, and then returns cooled water to wherever it’s required.

How does a cooling tower work? If you’re familiar with a heat exchanger, a water cooling tower works in the same way - but at a much larger scale. Heat leaves water through evaporation to help reduce the operating temperature of your equipment and maintain optimal performance. With capacities up to 10,000 GPM, our cooling tower rentals are the ideal choice for larger industrial environments and the most demanding processes.

While both solutions can help control temperatures and dispel excess heat, chillers and cooling towers work in different ways. With a water-cooled or air-cooled chiller, heat is removed and sent out into the air. Conversely, cooling towers typically remove heat using a condenser, then return water back to your HVAC system.

Often, the right choice depends on your environment, challenges, and the scale of your environment. A compact cooling tower could be appropriate for a commercial or light industrial setting, while large, 500 ton cooling towers can cope with heavy industrial processes. Some scenarios may even call for a combined chiller cooling tower system, with multiple approaches used together.

If you’re not sure which solution is best for your needs - chiller vs cooling tower - we can help. With a unique understanding of your applications, we’ll help you find the right HVAC solution for you.

Contact our cooling tower specialists

• Temporary cooling capacity - Maximize production during hot summer months or peak demand times using temporary water cooling towers alongside your overheated main tower.
• Cooling tower replacement and repair - Carry out maintenance work without interruption to your plant productivity by diverting water from your primary tower to Aggreko’s rental towers.
• Thermal discharge - Maintain discharge water temperature limits - even in hot weather - by running a portion of your overheated water through our temporary cooling towers. We’ll keep you running at full capacity, discharging water at environmentally safe and compliant temperatures.
• Emergency cooling - Reduce costly downtime with a turnkey system including pipes, pumping, electrical distribution, and generators to restore cooling capacity within days - or sooner with an Aggreko emergency contingency plan.
• Wastewater cooling - Some industrial water treatment processes depend on microorganisms to break down hydrocarbons and contaminants in wastewater streams. When temperatures rise, microorganisms can’t survive. Our custom cooling towers can be optimized to maintain a healthy environment where microorganisms thrive.
