Cleaning & Decontamination

Reducing Health Risks & Ensuring Compliance

Hospitals, research centers, and university facilities must maintain the highest standards of cleanliness and efficiency. Cooling towers are susceptible to biological growth, which can compromise air quality and regulatory compliance. Our cleaning and decontamination services mitigate these risks, improve system efficiency, and help facilities meet ASHRAE 188, CDC, and OSHA guidelines.

Our Process Includes:

Hyper-chlorination and surfactant applications for bacteria and algae control
Pressure washing to remove debris, scale, and biofilm
Fill media deep cleaning to improve water distribution and efficiency
Basin and distribution system flushing to prevent blockages
Post-cleaning water treatment recommendations
Certified Cleaning & Decontamination - Reduce Legionella risk and ensure compliance with infection control protocols for healthcare and high-occupancy facilities.

Regular cleaning reduces the risk of health-related outbreaks, enhances indoor air quality, and supports mission-critical operations in hospitals and research institutions.

Preventative Maintenance

Protecting Uptime for Critical Operations

Unplanned downtime in hospitals, labs, and university buildings can disrupt essential services and research. OBR’s preventative maintenance programs ensure cooling towers remain reliable, compliant, and cost-efficient, helping facilities prevent unexpected failures and extend system lifespan.

Key Preventative Maintenance Services:

Oil & Lubrication Services: Extend the life of fans, motors, and gearboxes
Belt & Drive System Adjustments: Ensure proper alignment and tensioning
Fan Blade & Pitch Optimization: Improve airflow and cooling efficiency
Water Treatment & Scale Prevention: Reduce the risk of corrosion and fouling
