About Our Services

FIST Cooling Tower Capabilities

Inspections & Evaluations

We conduct detailed inspections for all makes and models, evaluating structural integrity, heat transfer media, and mechanical components to recommend targeted improvements.

Maintenance & Cleaning

Our crews provide thorough cleanings of fill material, cold water basins, and remote tanks to improve heat transfer and remove buildup that can impact performance.

Repair & Refurbishment

We restore aging cooling towers to their original or improved condition using modern materials that enhance thermal performance and extend lifespan, often boosting efficiency by 10–30%.

Component Replacement

FIST supplies and installs replacement parts, including fan assemblies, gearboxes, motors, nozzles, fill media, drift eliminators, and valves sourced from trusted OEM and aftermarket suppliers.

Mechanical Upgrades

We upgrade mechanical systems with precision—installing or retrofitting components such as drive shafts, couplings, gear drives, and structural supports for improved reliability.

New Construction

When refurbishment isn’t viable, FIST can provide complete turnkey installation of new cooling towers offering factory-assembled and field-erected options in wood, fiberglass, concrete, or steel.

Custom Fabrication

Our in-house fabrication capabilities allow us to produce custom components like hot water basins, service platforms, walkways, louvers, or other elements no longer available from manufacturers.
