# Heat Exchanger Cleaning Best Practices for Higher Efficiency

Best practices for heat exchanger cleaning using UHP systems to restore heat transfer and improve turnaround performance.

## What fouling costs a facility

As fouling accumulates, heat transfer drops, energy demand increases and process performance suffers. In many plants, exchanger cleaning is one of the most commercially important maintenance activities.

## Why UHP cleaning performs well

UHP jet pumps support internal and external tube cleaning with high consistency. This improves surface condition, restores performance and helps maintenance teams return equipment to service faster.

## Planning the work correctly

Good exchanger cleaning starts with access planning, tube assessment, pressure selection and safety control. The contractor should align cleaning execution with turnaround logic rather than treat it as an isolated task.

## How to choose a contractor

Look for specialists who understand exchanger internals, time-critical work and industrial safety. The quality of execution affects both plant performance and the duration of your outage.
