EVAPCO, Inc., an industry‑leading, employee‑owned manufacturer of heat transfer solutions, is celebrating its 50th anniversary on June 14, 2026, marking five decades of innovation, customer partnerships, and global growth. Founded in 1976 by Wilson E. Bradley and William E. Kahlert, the company began as a small refrigeration‑focused business at 3120 Frederick Avenue in Baltimore, Maryland, with a team of about five employees and a single product line of evaporative condensers using ammonia as a refrigerant. “When we started the company, we really planned to stay just in the refrigeration

In the early 2000s, energy efficiency stood as the dominant force shaping equipment selection and facility design. During this era, open cooling towers were widely adopted as the primary method for heat rejection, valued for their effectiveness and relative simplicity. In the data center space, power usage effectiveness (PUE) quickly became the industry’s foundational metric, guiding decisions aimed at reducing the amount of energy consumed by supporting systems relative to computing workloads. This metric-driven approach led organizations to invest heavily in technologies minimizing

EVAPCO proudly introduces PuRe-JET™, an innovative pumpless recirculation adiabatic system designed to simplify operation, reduce maintenance, and deliver highly efficient thermal performance. By completely eliminating the need for mechanical pumps, PuRe-JET minimizes system complexity while reducing water usage and long-term operational costs. Engineered to respond to changing conditions, PuRe-JET uses a demand-based control strategy. Under standard conditions, the system operates with energy-efficient fans that ramp up as load and ambient temperatures increase. When additional cooling

Wilson E. Bradley, Chairman Emeritus of EVAPCO, co-founded the company in 1976 alongside Bill Kahlert and helped grow it into a global leader in heat transfer technology. A pioneer in engineering innovation, Bradley holds 35 U.S. patents and more than 200 international patents. His leadership and dedication have also left a lasting impact on the International Institute of All-Natural Refrigeration, where he served as Standards Review Chair, Chairman, Honorary Life Member, and NRF Trustee. The NRF Legacy 100 Club honors individuals whose contributions have helped shape the future of the cooling

Underground computers and data storage were generating so much heat in rural Missouri that cooling towers were needed urgently to stabilize temperatures throughout the sprawling network of tunnels and commercial development.
