* Sizing an appropriate mineral descaler model/s is a combination of the building’s primary use, diameter of the water pipes where the mineral descaler will be installed, and the anticipated water flow. Other variables such as building height, square footage and supporting equipment (boilers, heat exchanges, cooling tower, etc.) also play a role in developing a holistic descaling plan to lower energy consumption and extend equipment and piping infrastructure lifespans.
Note: to offer a general mineral descaling model sizing plan for the building classifications below, assumptions were made for pipe diameter, number of floors, building size, etc. A final installation plan for your specific building may require more or fewer installed models.
K1 – One Story Retail
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: If your building occupies a large square footage on one level and you are interested in descaling all the piping you may require an additional descaler. A dedicated descaler can also be used to support heating and cooling equipment. |
| • Shopping Center/ Stores |
K2 – Multi-Story Retail
(2 Or More)
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: Installing additional mineral descalers may be necessary to maximize the efficiencies of your equipment (cooling tower units, pumps, heat exchanges, etc) based on the total size and stories of your building. Contact us for a customized plan. |
| • Shopping Center/ Stores • Cooling Towers |
K3 – Multi-Story Department Store
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: The predominant water usage will be used in water supply to bathroom facilities, sprinkler systems, building cooling operations, etc. Unlike apartment or hotel building of equal size, installing multiple descalers to compensate for higher water demands is not necessary in a multi-story department type of building. |
| • Shopping Mall |
K4 – Predominant Retail
With Other Uses
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: Varying water demands are expected. Installing a significantly larger mineral descaler on the main water pipe entering the building will ensure core water based mechanical equipment is thoroughly descaled before the water supply is pushed to upper levels. Depending on the size and function of the building additional mineral descaler may be necessary on various levels to recharge the water supply. |
| • Shopping Center/ Stores • Cooling Towers |
K5 – Stand-Alone Food Establishment
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: The Vulcan 5000 model is robust solution for this type of property and can effectively treat water flowing at up to 35 GPM. One descaler installed on a main water line can support water pipes, commercial dishwashers, toilet facilities, grease traps, etc |
| • Food Service Industry • Wolfies Waterfront Grill |
K6 – Shopping Center
With Or Without Parking
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: Shopping center locations are typically shorter buildings with larger square foot size per story. Descaling all the water pipes through the building will benefit more from slightly stronger descaling units positioned in several pipe locations. Additional mineral descaler/s will be incorporated into the cooling network of the property. This will lower energy demands, lower cooling tower blowdowns, reduced water waste, lowered maintenance checks and all other associated labor requirements. |
| • Shopping Mall |
K7 – Banking Facilities
With Or Without Parking
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: Similar to an office based environment maimed at reducing energy demands in building support equipment and descaling general water pipes and pumps to extend the operating lifespan of equipment and prevent corrosion. |
| • Office Buildings • Boliers |
K9 – Miscellaneous Store Building
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: Contact us to help you choose the best installation plan for your building. |
| • Shopping Center/ Stores • Boliers • Cooling Towers |
Without knowing the intrinsic specifications for your property classification, the examples above are offered as a possible solution. However, this may not be completely accurate until the above-mentioned variables are considered.
