Services
Cooling Tower Services
We design, supply, and maintain industrial cooling towers for commercial and defense applications. Our SPX Marley agency partnership provides access to full-line cooling tower manufacturers. We specialize in retrofitting systems in confined spaces while ensuring compliance with CTI and Australian standards. Our engineers optimize thermal efficiency and reduce environmental impact through hybrid and plume abatement technologies.
Pump Sales & Service
Our team installs and repairs industrial centrifugal pumpsets for HVAC and fuel transfer systems. We offer laser alignment services to within coupling manufacturers' tolerances, reducing vibration and extending equipment life. With 100+ years of combined experience, we handle pipework in ABS, copper, and stainless steel while maintaining systems for major defense infrastructure projects.
Laser Alignment
We provide precision laser alignment for industrial shafts, couplings, and pumpsets up to 4.5 meters in length. Our technicians produce detailed alignment reports to verify compliance with engineering standards. This service reduces equipment downtime by preventing premature bearing and seal failures caused by misalignment in critical industrial operations.
Facilities Maintenance
Our planned and emergency maintenance services cover pumps, valves, compressors, and fuel systems for commercial and defense clients. We use MEX maintenance planning software to ensure compliance with Australian standards and provide electronic reporting for asset management. Technicians hold confined space and hazardous area certifications for safe operations.
Defence Force Engineering
We support Australian military bases with fuel system maintenance, compressed air services, and emergency repairs. Our team performs API 653 tank inspections and environmental compliance monitoring for defense infrastructure. We maintain critical systems including fire pumps, emergency generators, and hazardous area electrical installations under strict defense contract requirements.

Questions
What cooling tower materials do you recommend for industrial use?
We recommend stainless steel for corrosion resistance or fibreglass for cost-effectiveness, depending on environmental conditions and budget considerations.
Can you retrofit cooling towers in heritage buildings?
Yes, we specialize in modular cooling tower replacements that fit through lifts or stairwells in challenging access locations.
Do you provide emergency pump repair services?
Yes, our technicians offer 24/7 emergency repairs for industrial pump systems with rapid response times.
What defense sector services do you offer?
We provide fuel system maintenance, tank inspections, and compressed air services for Australian Defence Force bases nationwide.
How do you ensure laser alignment accuracy?
We use calibrated laser tools and provide detailed alignment reports verifying compliance with coupling manufacturers' tolerances.
Can recycled water be used in cooling towers?
Yes, but may require changing to splash fill systems. We conduct water analysis to optimize system compatibility.
