STAINLESS INTERNATIONAL Cooling Tower, Rancho Cordova, California

STAINLESS INTERNATIONAL is a cooling tower facility located at 2441 MERCANTILE DR STE B, Rancho Cordova, California, United States. The plant is operational and serves the local industrial sector in Sacramento County. The facility operates under U.S. regulatory frameworks, including ASHRAE 15 for refrigeration safety and the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol for refrigerant management. Cooling towers in California typically use evaporative cooling, which requires significant water consumption, a key environmental consideration in the region. As part of the industrial infrastructure in Rancho Cordova, this cooling tower supports manufacturing processes, contributing to the local economy. The facility's location in a water-sensitive area underscores the importance of efficient water use and refrigerant management to minimize environmental impact.

Cooling towers in California operate under strict water efficiency regulations due to the state's frequent drought conditions. Evaporative cooling systems consume large volumes of water, making water conservation a critical environmental factor. Additionally, refrigerants used in cooling systems have varying global-warming potentials, and facilities must comply with the Kigali Amendment to phase down high-GWP refrigerants.
