Tower Tech Coils and Fill Media Now Use XchangeTech™ Technology
01/23/2026
Tower Tech announced all cooling tower models will now incorporate proprietary XchangeTech™ technology. This lightweight, corrosion-resistant design maximizes service life and prioritizes maintenance worker safety. XchangeTech fill media is standard in all Tower Tech modular cooling towers. XchangeTech polymer coils are standard in all closed-circuit towers.

XchangeTech materials are significantly lighter than stainless steel, a common material for industrial-grade cooling tower fill media and coils. Stainless steel weighs approximately one pound per 3.5 cubic inches; it takes nearly 20 cubic inches to equal a pound of most polymers. XchangeTech’s lighter weight makes it safer for installers and maintenance professionals to handle. It also eliminates the need for cranes and other heavy machinery for replacements. The lighter parts’ weight can also minimize or eliminate total tower replacements, common when extremely heavy metal parts corrode.
Polymer XchangeTech coils deliver the same weight benefits to closed-loop towers. The coils have similar heat transfer capabilities to metal at a fraction of the weight. They have a very low internal pressure drop and do not corrode when exposed to the water, glycols, brine, chlorides and other chemicals that may be present inside the cooling tower.
“XchangeTech helps continue Tower Tech’s mission to never take convention as a given,” said Mathu Solo, President, Tower Tech. “We were founded on the belief towers could be both sustainable and efficient and could be safer to maintain. XchangeTech is the next evolution of this process.”
XchangeTech fill media is also compatible with legacy Tower Tech towers.
