Evaporative cooling with water
treatment strategies saves water.
Do the math.
Want to find out just how big a reduction in water usage
you could achieve with SPX evaporative cooling? Go to
www.spxcooling.com/en/green and click on our Water
Usage Calculator. Simply enter your operating conditions
to calculate a variety of key data, such as blow down
and total usage in cubic metres per hour (m
3 /h). We think
you’ll find your potential savings very cool indeed.

Where water resources are available, evaporative cooling is
the lowest-cost, most energy-efficient solution – delivering
benefits that are central to any sustainable building design:
Energy savings
Water savings
LEED credits
Clean air
Cost savings
Recyclability
Depending on local weather, HVAC evaporative cooling systems can reduce energy consumption
one-half to one-third of air-cooled equipment, thereby reducing your carbon footprint.
Depending on climate and configuration, the Marley NCWD cooling tower can conserve up to 20% of the
water usage of a standard cooling tower.
Evaporative cooling systems* from SPX Cooling Technologies can achieve significantly better than
ASHRAE 90.1 minimum efficiency thresholds, providing green builders one more way to receive
LEED energy reduction credits.
Not only is evaporative cooling an environmentally friendly process that uses naturally replenished
water –
it provides about 95% effectiveness at cleaning the air that flows through the system.
Evaporative cooling systems require significantly less maintenance over the lifecycle than
other cooling systems – which translates, simply, into more green at the bottom line.
SPX Cooling Technologies’ evaporative cooling towers are comprised of 70% recycled materials
when made from stainless steel, and 29% recycled materials when made from galvanized steel.
* The difference between the energy consumption of a cooling
system more efficient than the ASHRAE 90.1 minimum,
and the minimum value, contributes to the LEED energy
savings credit for a building.
