Field Services
ICT’s Field Services teams are recognized in the industry for their ability to complete projects safely. This is a core value and the basis for our best practices when creating innovative ways to protect our workers and optimize productivity. We are a direct hire company and employ all of our field crews to ensure we have the best people and the most highly trained workforce. Our innovative methods include safe work platforms installed on each working surface of a tower, mobile assembly towers for larger installations and module assembly to limit down time for customers. We have over seven different methods to assemble or reconstruct your cooling towers.
ICT chooses the best and safest construction method for your project.
Cooling Tower Inspections
ICT conducts a range of cooling tower inspections depending on a client’s individual requirements. These include age, condition, severity of service and type of material. Once the requirements are determined, the level of inspection can be planned. From a simple walk-down to a Level 3 inspection, our trained inspectors work together with our engineers to provide a comprehensive report. Photos of deficiencies and bent line drawings are all reviewed by our engineers who are able to provide material testing for both wood and FRP. Any type of inspection can be custom tailored to help plan future capital expenditures or confirm a tower is fit for service.

Customer Training Programs
We offer a variety of training programs designed to provide our customers with knowledge applicable to any cooling tower system. These programs cover cooling tower fundamentals, inspection and maintenance best practices, and other essential topics that help customers better understand, operate, and maintain their equipment.

Winter Operations
With the support of our engineering team, ICT helps customers maximize cooling tower performance during winter operations. By evaluating site-specific environmental conditions and upgrading tower systems accordingly, we optimize efficiency, maintain reliable performance, and help ensure effective operation throughout the winter season.
We have created PLC logic controller programs to have automated tower operation in almost any weather condition. Developed inlet doors and controllable louvers for trouble free winter operation as well as partitions and cell isolation procedures for reduced flow applications. We can even operate without a headload.
