Power Generation Cleaning with Less Outage Time in Houston
Electrical substation
Professionals who need to keep their equipment in prime condition will find Houston Dry Ice Blasting’s power generator cleaning services to be very useful. We can provide you with non-conductive, environmentally friendly cleaning processes that can be applied to a large range of power generation equipment, without the need to disassemble or move heavy equipment, reducing the danger of moving heavy equipment to another area.
With dry ice blasting, particles of carbon dioxide are propelled at supersonic speeds, and the pellets break apart upon impact, cleaning the surface by removing contaminants and dirt off the substrate without creating any secondary waste. Also, non-abrasive CO2 is used in our power generation cleaning services, so that your equipment won’t be damaged, scratched, or etched. – even the most delicate circuit boards.
While reducing the need for laborious scraping, the chance of insulation damage from tools during cleaning, and the need for drying time from solvents or water, our cleaning services can remove contaminants from turbines, motors, generators, and electronics.

Safe, Non-Toxic Cryogenic Blasting
Contrary to many solvents used by the cleaning industry, dry ice blasting does not pose a threat to human health. By using this safer chemical-free cleaning method, employees will be significantly protected from hazardous chemical agents and other harmful cleaning methods. This creates a safer work environment by improving operator safety and reducing health risks.
By eliminating disassembly, we can reduce equipment damage during disassembly, thereby reducing fatigue and injury to workers, and saving valuable hours or days by reducing downtime. Cleaning equipment using cryogenic blasting is portable, so equipment can be brought to the blasting unit instead of bringing the equipment to the blasting unit.
