Equipment on Site

Evapco fan wheel and fan shaft
Problem
Fan wheels were unbalanced by the severe corrosion of the fan shaft and driven pulley. Two of the casing panels were corroded and needed to be replaced.
Challenge
The school’s fall semester was about to begin, and the towers needed to be refurbished quickly and efficiently before the first students moved in.
Solution
Factory Authorized Service, along with Evapco, rushed the parts order to meet the move-in deadline.
Outcome
With parts in hand, we installed the new fan wheel, shaft, and pully in 2 days, allowing students to move in on the third day. The tower was brought back to the original thermal performance from Evapco. The customer was extremely pleased with the speed of installation and the tower’s corrected efficiency.
