Chief Engineers: Is Your BAS Ignoring the Most Water-Intensive Parts of Your Facility? Cooling towers. Boilers. Softeners. Chemical dosing systems. These are mission-critical, and they belong in your Building Automation System (BAS). Manual logs and disconnected systems lead to: ● Missed failures and trend deviations ● Higher utility and chemical costs ● Greater Legionella and compliance risk ● More firefighting, less proactive control A modern BAS brings your water systems into full view—alongside HVAC, lighting, and access control. The result? ● Real-time alerts ● Predictive control ● Measurable ROI ● Safer, smarter operations At EAI Water, we help engineers integrate water systems seamlessly into BAS platforms using open protocols (BACnet, Modbus, MQTT), automation-ready equipment, and water-specific logic sequences. Your BAS shouldn’t stop at the air handler. It should start with the systems that cost the most to run—and offer the most to gain.

Chlorine is only effective if it’s delivered correctly. Whether you're treating well water, managing Legionella risk in a hospital, or keeping biofilm out of a cooling tower, your chlorine injection pump matters. At EAI Water, we help facilities across the western U.S. design and maintain precise, reliable, and safe chlorine injection systems. Because when it comes to disinfection, there’s no room for guesswork. Here’s what we look for when specifying the right pump:  ● Accurate dosing based on real-time demand ● Material compatibility for long-term chemical resilience ● Flow-paced or sensor-based control integration ● Maintenance-friendly components that reduce downtime From diaphragm and peristaltic to solenoid and high-pressure piston systems—we match the right pump to your real-world conditions, not just spec sheets. Already have a system? We offer performance audits, monitoring upgrades, and service programs to keep things running smoothly. Better disinfection starts with smarter delivery. Let’s build a chlorine injection solution that fits your operation and evolves with your needs.

Is your cooling tower helping or hurting your sustainability goals? Every day, data centers, commercial buildings, and industrial plants lose thousands of gallons of water through cooling tower evaporation. And in drought-prone regions like California, Arizona, and Nevada, that’s not just an environmental issue—it’s an operational and financial burden. At EAI Water, we believe sustainable cooling tower management starts with smart strategy: ● Reuse alternative water sources like greywater and condensate ● Replace harsh chemicals with advanced oxidation processes ● Reduce waste through real-time monitoring and automation Case in point: One local university’s reclaimed water program—designed and supported by EAI—saved 140 million gallons of water in just 18 months. Whether you're managing a hospital, a high-rise, or a data center facility, we help you cut costs, stay compliant, and optimize performance without compromising the planet.

What’s Glycol Doing in Your Industrial HVAC System? (Hint: A lot more than just freeze protection.) In commercial and industrial HVAC systems, glycol helps prevent freeze-ups, reduce corrosion, and extend equipment life — especially in rooftop chillers, cold climates, and closed-loop systems. But choosing the right type of glycol (ethylene vs. propylene), managing concentration, and ensuring proper maintenance? That’s where expertise matters. In our latest article, we break down: ● What glycol is and how it works ● Key differences between ethylene and propylene glycol ● How glycol protects HVAC systems from freeze, fouling, and corrosion ● Best practices for testing, handling, and environmental compliance ● How EAI helps optimize glycol performance for long-term reliability Whether you're maintaining a hospital, data center, or industrial plant, glycol could be your system’s unsung hero — if it's managed the right way.
