A cooling tower louver is a component of an efficient cooling tower system. It helps ensure that water is in good quality and quantity.

In a cooling tower, water and air are brought together. In effect, certain conditions are likely to happen. For instance,  species can grow, water and chemical quality might be reduced or water may splash out from the tower.

These conditions may reduce the effectiveness of the cooling tower and eventually the overall capacity of the plant, refinery or whatever project with cooling towers you are maintaining.

The louvers and panels will help prevent these instances from occurring to ensure optimum performance of the cooling tower.

• It hinders water splash out, which means water is retained inside the collection tank.
