Are you looking to replace a cooling tower part or component? Perhaps you need a part for a cooling tower to repair it, replace a part that is on its way out, or simply need some expert advice about a part or component that you can’t find?
Finding the right cooling tower part can be confusing as there are so many makes, series, and models, it is time-consuming, and from what we learnt from our conversation with Darren Driscoll and Jason Christensen, owners of Flow Matrix, very risky if you get the wrong information.
In fact, we found out that experience and knowledge in this very niche industry are critical if you want to get the best cooling results, correct heat rejection, save time and money, and of course keep people in their air-conditioned office cool, food production lines cool, and process cooling lines working correctly in factories.
FlowMatrix is one of the few companies that can provide the “supply, sell, and delivery” of spare parts for absolutely every type of cooling tower in Australia. They also provide a very rare after-sales service care to their clients, where Darren or Jason regularly provides a service for instructions at distance, over a mobile call, even a facetime call during a cooling tower part assembly start your team are installing.
FlowMatrix also offers a “supply and install” service to those that want a professional, hassle-free, and compliant, installation of cooling tower parts or components, in Victoria, NSW, the ACT, South Australia or Tasmania. Some cooling tower components like infill pack media drift eliminators, and air inlet screens need to be cut to size on-site to fit into the cooling tower casing and around the supports. We also can advise of the correct material such as PVC or Polypropylene for high-temperature applications
FlowMatrix experience and expertise:
Darren and Jason have more than 33 years of experience in the cooling tower industry, meaning that they know
- If a part your seeking will actually work or not.
- What replacement part is the best for any particular type of cooling tower.
- How to recommend a high-performance part or component
- What the government or Australian standards are, always making sure their parts are certified, approved and up to date. AS / NZS 3666 is a critical cooling tower standard
- The best options and solutions
- How to guide people to consider modular parts and components such as fill pack drift eliminators and air intake splash louvers.
- If the mechanical drive components such as the motor, fan, shaft, bearings, pullies, belts, gearbox, taper locks, are in a sound condition so that it does not fail in service
- What is a correct drift eliminator to control drift, mist, spray, aerosol and Legionella / Legionnaires Disease
Indeed, FlowMatrix doesn’t just sell cooling tower spare parts to people, rather they use their knowledge and technical experience to help people get the best results they possibly can, that could introduce a new part or recommending something that’s better for you. OEM parts can be obsolete components, so FlowMatrix offer modern parts like Brentwood Industries cooling tower PVC parts
With so many options and cooling tower manufacturers available, FlowMatrix have the experience and engineering data to understand the best outcomes that do save companies time and money.
An example of this is a story Darren mentioned “You can put an OEM part that was designed 30 years ago for your old cooling tower, but it may not be right part for you these days. You may prefer to upgrade your cooling tower or condenser to high cooling performance parts that have improve the kw heat rejection, the correct water flow rate, the thermal performance, range, work at a higher wet bulb temperature WB, or withstand higher water temperatures to reject heat. “I have seen many part replacements that have ended terribly with melted fill pack medium, distorted drift eliminators, brittle air intake splash louvers, electric motors that have blown up after a few months as they were not cooling tower waterproof or protected, fans or impellors where the blades have broken”

Cooling tower spare parts and accessories
Unlike other brands that are using parts that are old designs, using old materials that don’t do the job properly, the cooling tower parts Flowmatrix uses are up to date, top-performing, all come with datasheets, top literature, engineering data, operation and maintenance instructions and part number (traceability).
Cooling towers have a lot of parts and components that can also become things over time that can go wrong and need replacing.
FlowMatrix always recommends getting a quote and advice for any cooling tower parts or component repairs before you would even consider installing a new one.
There are always many options that can be provided that are cheaper, easier and more sustainable to fix your cooling towers.
