Can Air Intake Filters help fight algae and bacteria growth?
Yes. Air Intake Filters are highly effective at helping to reduce bio- activity in cooling towers. The reason for its effectiveness is two-fold. First, by stopping organic debris from being drawn into the tower, the nutrient source that supports bacterial proliferation is eliminated. Secondly, because air intake filters diffuse sunlight, it thwarts the algae growth that depends upon sunlight for photosynthesis and growth. In the absence of sunlight, algae cannot proliferate.
