An example of the dollar savings expected for refurbishing a tower vs. replacement is when Bond Water Technologies completely refurbished four (4) 200 ton cooling towers (800 tons total) at a cost of approx.$80,000.00 vs. the cost of new towers quoted at $100,000.00, plus installation costs.ooling Tower Replacement can be a costly proposition and the average life expectancy of a commercial cooling tower, according to most manufacturers, is 15 â 20 years, before they need to be rebuilt or replaced.
A cooling tower is a heat exchanger, inside of which heat is withdrawn from the water by contact between the water and the air. The heat transfer occurs through the heat exchange between air and water and through the evaporation of a small part of the water that needs to be cooled. cooling tower is a heat exchanger, inside of which heat is withdrawn from the water by contact between the water and the air.
