Technical Insight – Glycol Systems Under Pressure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Closed-loop glycol systems, commonly used for HVAC and industrial cooling, face two critical challenges: fouling<\/strong> and corrosion<\/strong>. Over time, glycol degrades into organic acids, lowering pH and accelerating metal attack. Simultaneously, biofilm and particulate accumulation impair heat transfer, leading to performance drift and energy inefficiency. Without proactive chemical cleaning and corrosion protection, these systems become costly liabilities\u2014both in terms of maintenance and asset longevity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As water treatment professionals, it is our responsibility to ensure long-term system integrity through rigorous monitoring, targeted cleaning procedures, and tailored corrosion inhibitor programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
