New York City Commercial Water Treatment

Minerals and biological materials can impact the efficiency and health of closed loop systems, boilers and cooling towers. Water contaminants may also present health and safety hazards. Chardon Laboratories offers personalized water treatment services in New York City for industrial facilities. Our local presence means we know your area’s water quality challenges and offer customized solutions. 

How New York City’s Water Quality Impacts Your Business

New York City sources most of its water from an expansive watershed in upstate New York, over 100 miles from the city. Due to the volume, water from this source does not undergo filtration due to the volume. Instead, the New York Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) disinfects water using chlorine and ultraviolet light. The DEP also adds phosphoric acid, fluoride and sodium hydroxide to protect the city’s water infrastructure and improve oral health.

While the DEP treats water, some minerals and biological materials may leave scale and microbial material, resulting in equipment corrosion and efficiency loss. Microbials are a top concern following the 2015 Legionnaires’ disease outbreak. Today, building owners must register their cooling towers and test for Legionella. Chardon Labs offers treatment and monitoring services that help businesses in New York City meet efficiency goals and satisfy state requirements.

Water quality may vary significantly outside of New York City within the metropolitan area. For example, areas on Long Island, including Suffolk and Nassau County, get their water primarily from several aquifers under the island, which means it is susceptible to contamination from chemicals and other substances seeping into the land. 

On the other hand, Dutchess County in New York gets its water from various lakes, rivers, ponds, reservoirs and wells throughout the region. It is susceptible to microbial and inorganic contaminants. While the water is treated according to state and national guidelines, it may still have trace amounts of these substances, which could cause issues within your commercial water system.

Maintain Your Business Operations With Routine Treatment and Testing

Regular water monitoring, testing and treatment will benefit your business in numerous ways:

• Productivity: Testing and treating water systems will resolve issues earlier, preventing downtime spent repairing or replacing equipment.
• Equipment health and longevity: Preventing scale, corrosion and microbial growth will preserve your water systems and protect your investment. You will need less maintenance, and systems are likely to last longer.
• Energy efficiency: Treating scale and corrosion allows water to flow seamlessly through your systems and prevents leaks, elevating your facility’s energy efficiency.
• Safety: Commercial water equipment that releases air, such as cooling towers, can spread collected microbiological contaminants, resulting in human health risks. Testing and treatment allow for better prevention and control of these issues.
• Compliance: Areas like New York City have regulations that require regular testing for Legionella. Our services enable you to avoid the risks of noncompliance.
