About

We build the chiller we wanted to buy.

AquaForge Technologies exists because the industrial water chiller market is dominated by disposable, commodity-grade units engineered to a price point — not to a duty cycle.

AquaForge was founded by refrigeration engineers and operators who had spent too many years replacing the same chillers in the same applications. We watched fish farms lose stock, hydroponic operators lose harvests, and cold plunge facilities lose entire weeks of revenue because a $4,000 chiller couldn't hold setpoint past its second summer.

So we built a different one. Heavier. Better components. Standard refrigerants. Real controllers. Documented schematics. The chiller we wanted to buy.

We're not the cheapest option. We were never going to be. Our customers are operators who depend on water temperature, who calculate their cost of equipment failure in livestock, harvests, or downtime — and who have already learned that the cheap chiller is the expensive chiller.

Every AquaForge unit is engineered for continuous duty, built around commercial components, and shipped with the documentation any qualified refrigeration tech needs to keep it running for a decade.

Built to outlast.

Operating Principles

What we won't compromise on.

Components

Name-brand commercial. If we can't source service parts for it, we don't ship it.

Duty Cycle

Designed for 24/7. Residential-duty parts get residential-duty units — built elsewhere.

Documentation

Every system ships with schematics and a service manual. No black boxes.
