Splash Fills
Splash fill consists of multiple layers of horizontal bars or slats. When warm water strikes these bars, it spreads and breaks into small droplets, increasing the water’s surface area. This design works on the principle of flowing water falling through a grid of splash bars, enhancing air-water contact time for efficient heat transfer in cooling towers.
Splash Fills maximize the water-to-air surface area by breaking water into small droplets. Made from PVC or polyethylene, they are ideal for poor-quality water, separating debris while ensuring efficient cooling in industrial towers.

The Perforated V-Bar system is a proven solution for upgrading crossflow cooling towers with old wooden splash fills and for use in NDCTs and IDCTs handling dirty or high-TSS water, where film fills may clog.
Widely used across industries, Thermal Care Engineers supplies stainless steel or FRP-coated wire mesh V-Bars, along with all supporting splash bar components.
The perforated surface design enables water to spread evenly and form a thin film. As this film ruptures into small droplets, it maximizes heat transfer efficiency while ensuring durable and low-maintenance performance.

Features and Advantages of Perforated V-Bar
- Diamond-shaped perforations provide optimal surface tension, allowing water droplets to rupture easily for maximum heat transfer.
- Reinforced top edge ensures superior bending resistance and load-bearing strength.
- Durable structure: Maintaining a 1.5 mm minimum thickness and 600 mm bar spacing prevents sagging and enhances stability.
- Secure installation: Compact V-Bar clip locking system ensures a strong and stable fill assembly.
- Optimized design: Limited 150 mm end overhang maintains balance and alignment in the grid system.
- Weather-resistant: Algae-resistant and fire-retardant materials ensure long-lasting performance in industrial environments.
Thermal Care V-Bar Clip Design ensures secure and stable locking, preventing wear on both the wire hanger and fill assembly. The built-in tab locks hold the V-Bar firmly in place, eliminating any risk of slippage and ensuring long-term durability and performance in cooling tower applications.

PP Grid Fills are a modern solution for counterflow cooling towers, offering reduced tower height compared to traditional splash bar systems. The Optigrid design provides excellent non-fouling performance due to its minimal surface area exposure, making it ideal for industrial applications with high TSS or poor water quality.
Widely used across industries, Thermal Care Engineers’ PP Grid Fills deliver durability, efficient heat transfer, and low maintenance, even under demanding operating conditions.
Features and Advantages of PP Grid Fills
- Efficient Splashing Mechanism: The Optigrid design allows water droplets to cascade across multiple horizontal layers, enhancing heat transfer.
- Shearing Action: Thin polypropylene strips break larger droplets into smaller ones, increasing surface area and cooling efficiency.
- Optimized Layer Configuration: Alternating strip alignment ensures continuous droplet interaction, maximizing the effectiveness of the splash fill principle.
- Robust Support Structure: Grids are mounted on stainless steel wires and polypropylene supports, ensuring uniform spacing and long-term durability.
- Secure Assembly: Each grid is interlocked with special clips, providing a stable, vibration-free fill assembly.
