The UBT Cooling Tower product line is an Advanced Technology design with dramatic advancements in structural technology to withstand the greatest forces of nature. Constructed with structural enhancements like heavier gauge steel, increased size and number of fasteners, reinforced mounting flanges and internal cross-bracing, the UBT line can withstand seismic accelerations up to 1.0g horizontal and wind loads of 125 psf. Stone and Webster, using computer modeling and actual proof tests independently certified the seismic and wind load rating of each model. In addition, the counterflow design provides the UBT Cooling Tower with inherently better operational and maintenance features. All of these features are described below.

The air inlet louver screens on the are constructed of corrosion-free PVC and stainless steel . They are a "Sight-Tight" two pass design that minimizes splashout and reduces the potential for algae formation inside the tower.

In single pass louver systems used by other manufacturers, circulating water droplets tend to splashout, especially when the fans are shut off. With the two pass louver system, the water droplets are captured on the inward sloping pass, minimizing splashout problems.

EVAPCO's unique louver design completely encloses the basin area. Direct sunlight is blocked from the water inside the cooling tower, thereby reducing the potential of algae formation. Water treatment and maintenance costs are substantially reduced.

While effectively containing the recirculating water and blocking sunlight, the louver design has a low pressure drop. The low pressure drop results in lower fan energy consumption, which reduces the operating costs of the cooling tower.
