Pitfalls in using well water for make-up in cooling towers?
(OP)
I am working on converting multiple cooling towers to well water. Other than the benchmark where storage tanks would be required to provide the necessary volume and notification of the responsible chemical company for change from city water, are there any other concerns I should be focused on?

Since you haven't given enough detail for us to really help you, let me offer an example. If you have 304 SS heat exchangers on this CT water circuit, and you have any manganese in your well water, you are setting yourself up for problems.
That should give you enough 'hints' or 'tips' to give you a good start.
