Water Chemical Treatment for Facilities in the Washington Metro Area

Water Quality Report for Businesses in Washington DC

Businesses operating in the Greater Washington Metro area use water sourced from the Potomac River. The water undergoes treatment at the Washington Aqueduct. Any water from the Potomac River may contain some contaminants, including microbes, salts, metals, pesticides, chemicals or naturally occurring radioactive materials.

The contaminants present in Washington's water could cause scaling and corrosion that facilitate inefficiencies and damage within industrial water systems. Cooling towers, closed loop water systems and boilers should undergo regular testing and treatment.

Chardon Labs has the experience and resources needed to provide industrial water treatment to businesses in Washington.

• Continued monitoring and testing

Closed Loop Treatments

Corrosion and scale in your closed loop system can cause inefficiency and allow microbes to thrive. Chardon Labs provides comprehensive water treatment for closed loop systems in Washington. Following a thorough assessment of your closed loop system, we will implement a chemical treatment solution that includes the ideal blend of chemicals for the situation:

• Corrosion inhibitors
• Non-oxidizing biocides
• Pretreatment chemicals
• Anti-foaming chemicals

Washington, DC Cooling Tower Treatment

Our cooling tower treatment services connect you with the right chemicals and treatment procedures to reduce corrosion, scale and biological growth within your facility's cooling equipment. We release controlled amounts of specific chemicals to eliminate bacteria and microorganisms, regulate mineral contents and control the water's pH balance. The cooling tower treatment process includes:

• Chemical precleaning and prefilming
• Corrosion inhibitors
• Non-oxidizing biocides
• Oxidizing biocides
• Anti-foaming chemicals
• Monitoring and continued treatment

Greater DC Legionella Testing for Cooling Towers

Legionella, a bacteria that causes the increasingly prominent disease Legionellosis, grows in stagnant fresh water and thrives in war conditions. Industrial water systems such as cooling towers are also susceptible to Legionella growth.

Chardon Labs offers Legionella testing and cleaning services for businesses in Washington. We will partner with you to develop a unique Water Management Plan (WMP) that reduces Legionella risk and protects the people inhabiting your building. Our WMPs include site analysis, water system testing, plan development and proactive updates.
