Balancing Thermal Efficiency and Fouling Resistance with ShockWave®
In this webinar, Balancing Thermal Efficiency and Fouling Resistance with ShockWave®, you'll learn what separates Brentwood's ShockWave from the competition. We'll present an overview of ShockWave's patented design before diving deeper into various aspect of the product, including its target market, benefits, and characteristics - such as its thermal efficiency, pressure drop, and susceptibility to fouling.
Striving for Sustainability: Brentwood's Mechanical Assembly
In this webinar, Striving for Sustainability: Brentwood's Mechanical Assembly, we'll explore the fundamentals of several assembly methods. We'll start with a quick overview of gluing, solvent bonding, and heat welding before taking a deep dive into Brentwood's Mechanical Assembly (MA).
Taking Thermal Performance to the Next Level with ThermaCross®
Join us for the first installment of the Brentwood Innovation Webinar Series, diving into our groundbreaking ideas behind various Brentwood innovations. Taking Thermal Performance to the Next Level with ThermaCross® is led by Dylen Ziegler, Brentwood's Manager of Application Engineering. In this role, Dylen leads a team of engineers who provide global technical support to Brentwood’s customers and internal staff. Dylen also works closely with Brentwood's R&D test laboratory, conducts performance ratings, supports the launch of new products, and represents Brentwood in technical associations.
Modern Splash & Trickle Fill for Cooling Tower Applications
In this webinar we will look at the manufacturing and application of injection molded trickle and splash fills such as HTP20, Net150, and HTP25. Injection molded packs have seen increased use in the cooling tower industry when water quality precludes the use of fouling-prone film fills. We will review why these types of products provide a good solution in water with high solids content and high temperature. Although these injection molded products look similar at first glance, we will explain how the products can differ in their performance characteristics and assembly. This information will assist users in selecting the best product for their particular scenario, allowing them to find the optimized solution considering tower capability, maintenance, and lifetime of the installed packing.
Load Bearing & Beam Widths for Cooling Tower Fills
In this webinar, we take an in-depth look at the factors that must be considered for the design of beam supports to properly support cooling tower fill. Topics that are covered include: live loads, temperature effects, creep, material choice, water hold-up, and fouling. We also highlight the equipment and testing methods used at Brentwood’s R&D lab and run through examples of beam design for a few fill designs at varying fill heights and gauge thicknesses.
Package Crossflow Cooling Tower Repacks
You might be wondering, "why repack a tower?" In this webinar, Dylen Ziegler answer that question and covers all the steps required to completing a successful package crossflow cooling tower repack.
How to Rate Your Tower: S.T.A.R. XF Launch
Jason Zerbe leads a hands-on, instructional walkthrough of Brentwood's new crossflow tower rating software, S.T.A.R. XF, running two models and answering questions on the program's new functionality.
Water Quality & Fouling: Parameters to Determine the Useful Lifetime of Fill
Jason Zerbe leads this presentation focused on selecting the best cooling tower fill based on the water quality present for the application. We discuss how fouling occurs, what properties of the circulating water affect the fouling, and how those properties are measured. We also examine available fill geometries available for different types of water quality.
Flammability of Film Fills: A Comparison
This webinar is hosted by Dylen Ziegler, one of Brentwood's Application Engineers. Dylen covers the flammability of various types of film fill media.

- Water distribution & spray patterns
- Counterflow & crossflow nozzles
- Installation & operating recommendations
- Nozzle maintenance
Drift Eliminator Basics: What is Drift & How Do We Get Rid of it?
This webinar is hosted by Dylen Ziegler, one of Brentwood's Application Engineers. Dylen reviews the basics of drift, including:
- What is drift?
- Why eliminate drift?
- How do we eliminate drift?
Introduction to the All-New Brentwood Separator System
Application Engineer, Dylen Ziegler, provides in-depth analysis on how the Brentwood Separator System can be installed directly into the cooling tower basin or cooling loop. This new offering can be used to remove troublesome solids, dirt, and debris from a cooling tower.
How to Rate Your Tower & Why it's Important (Part 2)
In Part 1 of this series, we completed an interactive walkthrough of Brentwood’s S.T.A.R. web-based counterflow rating program. In Part 2, Dylen Ziegler dives deeper into understanding a previous rating, and walking through all possible outputs and variables.
