Air-Cooled Chiller Scaling Issue Troubleshooting | Expert Diagnostics by EKG M&E Sdn Bhd

Why is Scaling Troubleshooting Essential for Air-Cooled Chillers?

Scaling buildup in air-cooled chillers can reduce heat transfer efficiency, increase energy consumption, and lead to system overheating. Factors such as hard water deposits, dirt accumulation, and poor airflow contribute to scaling, which can restrict refrigerant flow, overwork compressors, and shorten equipment lifespan. EKG M&E Sdn Bhd provides professional troubleshooting and descaling solutions, ensuring optimal cooling performance, energy efficiency, and system longevity.

Our ISO-certified scaling diagnostics and solutions cater to:

• Industrial & Manufacturing Facilities
• Commercial Buildings (Offices, Malls, Hotels, Hospitals)
• Data Centers & IT Cooling Systems
• Pharmaceutical & Healthcare Cooling
• Food Processing & Cold Storage Units

Signs of Scaling Issues in Air-Cooled Chillers

• Reduced Cooling Performance – Chiller struggles to maintain set temperatures
• Increased Energy Consumption – Higher power usage due to inefficient heat transfer
• Overheating Components – Excess heat retention in heat exchangers and coils
• Restricted Refrigerant Flow – Pressure imbalances and reduced cooling output
• Frequent Compressor Cycling – System turns on/off more frequently due to inefficient operation
• Visible Scale Deposits – White or chalky deposits on coils, pipes, and heat exchangers
