🔧 Project Feature: Watertower Square Cooling Tower Upgrade
Our Commercial HVAC & Refrigeration team recently completed an energy-saving cooling tower upgrade at Watertower Square in Newport, KY.
The challenge? A high-torque motor startup was creating disruptive noise for nearby residents and businesses. BMP installed an outdoor-rated Variable Frequency Drive, paired with a temperature sensor and controller, allowing the motor to ramp up gradually and adjust speed based on real-time system demand.
The result:
✅ Reduced startup noise
✅ Improved system efficiency
✅ Lower energy use during low-load conditions
✅ Expected payback within 1–2 years
Smart building maintenance is not just about fixing problems. It is about improving performance, reducing disruption, and helping facilities operate more cost-effectively.
