Working with government agencies involves additional considerations. The contractor must understand the government bidding process. Additionally, they must understand the additional importance of security at the facility. Chardon Labs maintains an active GSA contract #47QSWA20D009F.
Chardon Labs’ service managers are ASSE 12080 Certified for Legionella Control. Thousands of GSA facilities require testing for Legionella. We can perform Legionella testing, sampling, and remediation for potable and non-potable water sources such as sinks, showers, cooling towers, fountains, etc. The legal landscape around Legionella continues to change and Chardon Labs are staying on top of it.
Cooling towers, chillers, and closed loops provide efficient cooling with a relatively low energy cost in large government facilities. While they have low energy costs, they will have significant replacement or repair costs. As such, it is important to maintain them with regular water treatment.
Many municipal buildings utilize water cooling systems. Given that the size can vary greatly depending on whether it is a small office or a large complex, the equipment and chemicals utilized for them will also vary greatly.
Boilers and hot water loops are a common heat source for many government buildings, whether it is a small building with an old boiler system and cast-iron radiators or a massive facility with multiple 15-foot boilers. All commercial boilers need regular chemical water treatment to avoid costly issues and to run efficiently.
High-pressure boilers require inspections every 6 months or year based on state and local boiler inspection laws. Downtime, safety, mechanical failures, and efficiency issues are all considerations for someone performing a boiler inspection. Here at Chardon Labs, we will ensure that corrosion, scale, and other waterside issues will not cause damage to your boiler. We are so confident in our ability to deliver on our services that we offer a Scale-Free Guarantee. This is if you follow our minimum equipment/service recommendations.
