Limited time left to put your 2026 budget to work

Year-End Water Treatment Budget

Put your remaining 2026 budget to work before December 31.

We'll review your last 12 months of service reports and show you the two or three projects that protect your systems through winter — and use this year's dollars before they're gone.

No-cost review · Written quote within 48 hours · 22 states served

Use it before you lose it

Capital and maintenance dollars left in 2026 go further on equipment and projects that are already overdue.

Winter is the work window

Layups, glycol, boiler and chiller descales and tower shutdown cleanings all happen in the next 60 days.

2027 budgets are being written now

Get real numbers into next year's plan instead of carrying forward last year's line items.

Year-end offerings

What are you seeing at your facility?

Start with the problem, not the product. Open the one that sounds like your site.

01

Compliance & Legionella

Seeing: no Water Management Plan on file, no Legionella results this year, or a cooling tower, pool or healthcare population on site.

NJ deadline Dec 12

Water Management Plan (whole building)

An ASHRAE 188 plan covering towers, domestic hot water, pools, fountains and ice machines — written by the team that already knows your systems.

Cooling-tower-only WMP

An entry-level plan for the device regulators and insurers watch most. Expand to a whole-building plan at your annual review.

Legionella testing

Quarterly tower sampling, plus domestic water sampling for healthcare and senior living. The proof your plan is working.

Chlorination & remediation

Fast response to a positive result, and routine disinfection for tower restarts and new or repaired piping.

Point-of-use filters

Same-day protection for vulnerable occupants while remediation runs, replaced on a fixed cycle.

Operator training

Tower and boiler chemistry, Legionella awareness and running your WMP — for new operators and plan teams.

02

Cooling-Season Close-Out & Layups

Seeing: towers and chillers shutting down for winter, scale or biofilm in the basin, or corrosion coupons above target.

Next 30–60 days

Cooling tower cleaning

Fall shutdown cleaning for scale, sludge, biofilm and algae. Book the spring startup cleaning on the same order.

Tower, chiller & heat exchanger layup

A wet or dry layup that protects the asset through winter — for less than the cost of one tube bundle.

Cortec VpCI corrosion inhibitors

Vapor-phase protection for surfaces liquid treatment can't reach: idle boilers, chillers, outdoor equipment and stored spares.

LPR corrosion monitoring

Real-time corrosion rates instead of a coupon read every 90 days, for critical exchangers and aging piping.

03

Glycol Program

Seeing: glycol below freeze-protection target, repeated top-offs, or no glycol test in the last 12 months.

Before first hard freeze

Glycol testing

Lab analysis for concentration, pH, inhibitor reserve and degradation. The test that sizes everything else correctly.

Glycol filling

Bring loops up to freeze-protection targets before the cold arrives, not after the first burst coil.

Glycol feeder

An automatic feeder that holds concentration between visits and ends the dilute-and-refill cycle.

Glycol inhibitor

Replenish the inhibitor package to extend fluid life and avoid a full change-out.

04

Loop Cleanings & Descales

Seeing: dark or rust-colored loop water, high iron, scale at inspection, or rising approach temperatures and fuel use.

Schedule with shutdown

Closed-loop cleaning

A cleanup flush and fresh inhibitor that reset the program and protect pumps and coils.

Boiler descale

Scale is insulation on the wrong side of the tube. Restore heat transfer, timed with your annual inspection.

Chiller descale

A fouled condenser costs electricity every hour it runs. Descale at seasonal shutdown and pair it with a layup.

Heat exchanger acid clean

Restore capacity without replacing the bundle, with before-and-after readings you can see for yourself.

05

Equipment & Chemical Feed Upgrades

Seeing: manual testing, results that swing between visits, pumps losing prime, or controllers 10+ years old.

Capital budget by Dec 31

Controllers

Automation that holds your program between visits and replaces manual testing or failing older units.

Gateways for existing controllers

Remote data and alarms on the controller you already own, so problems are caught before you have to call.

Chemical feed pumps

Replace pumps losing prime or running at the top of their range — in pairs, so the second isn't an emergency.

New programs & new systems

Bring untreated closed loops, domestic water, humidifiers or a second boiler plant into your existing program.

Program optimization

Right-size treatment strength when residuals, corrosion or scale trends show the program has outgrown its original design.

Gemini double-wall containment

Secondary containment for chemical storage — a safety and compliance upgrade for SPCC, insurance and fire-marshal inspections.

Filter presses

Turn hauled liquid sludge into dewatered cake that costs a fraction to dispose of.

06

Chemicals & Commodities

Seeing: another vendor's drums in your chemical room, or pool chlorine bought by the bucket.

Start anytime

Commodity chemicals

Acids, caustic and ferric for pH adjustment, neutralization and pretreatment, on your existing delivery.

Bulk chlorine & pool monitoring

Bulk delivery and chemistry monitoring for pools, spas and water features — no more buying chlorine in buckets.

Oil & gas wastewater chemicals

Treatment for produced water, separators and holding tanks from the team that already handles your boilers and cooling.

07

Contract Expansion & Specialty Services

Seeing: services bought one at a time, other sites on a different vendor, or a renewal coming up.

Plan for 2027

Bundled service contracts

Roll cleanings, layups, testing and glycol into one multi-year contract instead of buying them one at a time.

Additional systems & sites

Extend the program to your other buildings, plants or campuses — same team, same reporting.

Managed mechanical work

Tower fill, pumps, piping, valves and basin repairs. We manage the contractor and own the result — you make one call.

Not sure which fits? Book a review and we'll match it to your service reports.

How the year-end review works

Your service reports already show where the budget should go.

  1. 01

    We pull your reports

    Twelve months of service results, recommendations and equipment notes for your site.

  2. 02

    We flag what matters

    Out-of-range trends, open recommendations, aging equipment and systems nobody is treating.

  3. 03

    You get two or three options

    Not the whole catalog. The projects that fix problems you already see in your own results.

  4. 04

    Quote within 48 hours

    A written quote fast enough to clear approvals and get on the calendar before year-end.

The year-end calendar

Now – November

Cooling season shutdown. Tower cleanings, chiller descales and layups while equipment is coming offline.

Before the first hard freeze

Glycol protection. Test, fill and inhibit closed loops with outdoor coils and rooftop units.

December 12, 2026

New Jersey Legionella deadline. Covered NJ buildings need a Water Management Plan in place.

December 31, 2026

Budget close. Equipment, upgrades and prepaid service scheduled against this year's dollars.

New Jersey facilities

The Legionella deadline is December 12, 2026.

New Jersey's Legionella law puts ASHRAE 188 into effect for covered buildings, including cooling towers, pools and spas. If you don't have a current Water Management Plan, start there — we can cover the year-end review in the same visit.

Questions before you book

Year-end review FAQ

Is there a cost for the year-end review?
No. The review and quote are no cost and no obligation. You only pay for work you approve.
Do I have to be a current ChemREADY customer?
No. Current customers get a review of their last 12 months of service reports. New facilities get a site visit and a recommended starting program.
Can the work actually be done before December 31?
The earlier you book, the better. Shutdown work like layups, tower cleanings and descales is being scheduled over the next 30 to 60 days, and glycol work needs to happen before the first hard freeze.
Which states does ChemREADY serve?
Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas and Wisconsin.
What does New Jersey's Legionella law require?
Covered New Jersey buildings need a Water Management Plan that follows ASHRAE 188 in place by December 12, 2026. Cooling towers, pools and spas are covered equipment.
