American Efficiency Services is recognized as the industry leader because we put safety and efficiency first in everything we do. We support electrical generating, petrochemical, paper, food processing, pharmaceutical, and ethanol-producing facilities, providing a full range of condenser related services, products and solutions, from six full-time offices located across the United States.
Since 2001, AES has provided open, clear communication and valuable system information to our customers for leak detection services and tube cleaning, which has now evolved into include expansion joint repair and replacement, eddy current testing, vibration resolution, and retubing. Our reporting system transfers photographs, diagrams and video images directly from the work area. Our findings are detailed in comprehensive final reports providing the information, including charts, analysis, and recommendations, you need to determine potential patterns of failure for maintenance and to aid plant personnel in prioritizing and making repairs. In fact, our final reports are so thorough and contain so much valuable information, a plant manager remarked that they were “almost too good”.
Leave nothing to chance when you hire AES—we get the job done and ensure you know what we know every step of the way. We are the Efficiency Experts.
American Efficiency Services utilizes helium as a tracer gas to locate various leaks in vacuum and pressure systems for industrial industries. A leaking component allows the helium to enter the system for negative pressure operation or be forced from the system for positive pressure operation. Our technicians monitor for excess amounts of helium recorded on their helium mass spectrometer. Each leak location is recorded, noting severity and potential repair options. You, as our customer, receive definitive leak tags, close-up and clear photos of the leak location, and a comprehensive written final report.
AES employs the most educated and experienced staff of inspectors in the industry. While no inspection or scenario is ever the same, our experience level combined with our employees’ vast knowledge base, means we will locate all leaks while on-site; in fact, we guarantee it.

It is important to understand the health of your condenser tubes and the eddy current services provided by American Efficiency Services can help do so. Eddy current Testing is the use of electromagnetic testing to identify surface and sub-surface flaws in conductive materials. It is also commonly used to examine non-ferrous tubing in condensers and heat exchangers.
When coupled with our tube cleaning program, these services can reduce the cost of both cleaning and eddy current inspection. Routine cleanings assist with immediate improvements to heat transfer and allow for quality eddy current data to be collected.

American Efficiency Services’ philosophy about tube cleaning services is this: anyone can put a cleaner in a tube and push — it’s the individuals doing the work that make the difference in quality. We offer the most complete, comprehensive tube cleaning you will find in the industry. When we perform tube cleaning and other tube services, you always receive updates on progress, photos and videos of the work completed, and a project plan, including tube deposit analysis, for future cleanings to stay ahead of any issues.
Whether you are a new client or coming back for repeat services, we have a strategy in place to tackle your tube cleaning. Working closely with Goodway, we offer a variety of cleaners and chemicals for the various fouling mechanisms identified inside of condenser tubes. We will create a cleaning project plan to help keep your tubes clean and improve your plant’s performance.

Since November of 1988, Cradle-Lock® has been the industry’s solution for vibration-induced tube failures in steam surface condensers and heat exchangers. Pioneered and patented by Bob Hahn, Cradle-Lock® Anti-Vibration Tube Stakes are now offered exclusively through American Efficiency Services.
Tube vibration, if left unresolved, may result in catastrophic tube failures and the subsequent unplanned shutdown of the unit. All AES Cradle-Lock® stakes are custom-engineered and fabricated of 304 stainless- steel using precision dies to precisely mimic the tube pitch and spacing characteristics of your condenser or heat exchanger. No matter you design, tube spacing, or tube material we have a Cradle-Lock® stake design that will protect your tubes from damage as a result of vibration.
Trust AES to solve your tube vibration challenges and see why we are the Efficiency Experts.
