What Central Florida water and heat mean for your systems
Most Central Florida utilities draw from the Floridan aquifer, and water that moves through limestone picks up hardness. Orlando Utilities Commission, for example, reports average hardness of about 129 ppm and uses ozone treatment, in part to remove naturally occurring hydrogen sulfide. Supplies elsewhere in the state can be much harder.
Add a cooling season that barely ends, and towers here run hard for most of the year. That keeps steady pressure on scale control, biological control and Legionella risk management. We design from your utility’s published data and your system details, and test on site where that would change the program.
Year-round cooling load
Towers run most of the year, so scale and biological control cannot lapse between seasons.
Hardness from limestone
Aquifer water carries calcium hardness that sets tower cycle limits.
Legionella risk
Warm water and constant operation raise the stakes on water management.
Made and serviced locally
Product is blended and service is run from Kissimmee.

What happens when you book a Health Check

A member of our Kissimmee water treatment team will contact you to understand your facility and your systems.

We visit your facility and sample the water circulating in your boilers, cooling towers or closed loops.

Where each system sits against its control range, what needs attention, and what can wait. No obligation to proceed.

If the program makes sense for your facility, we’ll handle onboarding, commissioning, and ongoing service from day one.
