Clean air for
gas turbines

Gas turbine, process, and HVAC filters, supplied and installed by our crews. We haul away the old ones too. One partner from quote to clean air.

Inside a turbine inlet house

Multiple filtration stages stand between the outside air and your compressor. We supply and service every one of them. Click a stage to see what it does.

01 / 06

Weather Hoods

The first barrier against rain, snow, birds, and debris. Hoods slow the incoming air so droplets fall out before reaching the filters.

  • Screens
  • Drainage
  • Anti-icing
02 / 06

Coalescers

Pads and vane separators merge fog and sea spray into droplets that drain away, keeping salt-laden water off the main filters.

  • Coastal
  • Offshore
  • Humid sites
03 / 06

Prefilters

Panels and pockets catch coarse dust, insects, and pollen. This protects the expensive final stage and extends its life by years.

  • G4–F7
  • MERV 8–13
  • Pockets & panels
04 / 06

Pulse / Static Main Stage

Cone-and-cylinder pulse cartridges clean themselves with reverse air bursts, while static V-cells deliver high efficiency at low pressure drop.

  • F8–F9
  • Nanofiber
  • Self-cleaning
05 / 06

EPA / HEPA Final

E10–E12 final filtration stops fine particles and salts, so compressors stay clean and offline water washes become rare.

  • E12 ≥ 99.5%
  • Hydrophobic
  • Water-tight
06 / 06

Evaporative Cooler

Wetted media cools the inlet air on hot days, restoring output. Drift eliminators catch water carry-over.

We don't just
drop off a pallet

Most suppliers stop at the loading dock. We plan the change-out, stage the filters, install them, and take the old ones away.

  1. Assess

    Walkdown, filter inventory, pressure-drop review, and a fixed quote.

  2. Supply

    Elements, gaskets, and hardware staged on site before your window opens.

  3. Remove & Install

    Spent filters out, seals and tubesheets inspected, new elements in and verified.

  4. Dispose

    Old filters crated, hauled, and disposed of, with documentation for your records.

Run the numbers

What is a clogged
filter costing you?

Every inch of water column of extra inlet pressure drop takes megawatts off the top. Move the sliders to see what it means for your unit.

0MW lost while running
0MWh of lost generation per year

Rule-of-thumb estimate (~0.45% output per inH₂O of extra inlet loss). It covers lost output only, not heat-rate penalties or extra water washes. Your actual numbers depend on turbine model and ambient conditions.

The old filters
leave with us.

Spent filters are bulky, dirty, and sometimes loaded with salts or hydrocarbons. We bag, crate, and haul them, and coordinate proper disposal with paperwork for your environmental records.

Need filters, or a full change-out?

Send us part numbers, inlet house details, or a photo of the filter label. We will cross-reference it and quote supply, installation, and disposal together.
