Contact Waslix (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.  |  412-848-5058) for a comprehensive installation plan for your building.


* 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.


A0 Cape Cod
D0 - Elevator Co-op Conversion
(from loft/ warehouse)

Mineral Descaling Models:
8" Main Water Pipe: S250
8" Main Hot Water Pipe: S150

Installation Considerations:
Additional smaller descalers models (V3000 or V5000) can also be incorporated into each apartment if individual water heaters are used. This will reenergize the water before it flows into the apartment, offering additional descaling appliance protection, lowering energy consumption and lower cleaning maintenance.

D1 - Elevator Apartment
(Semi-Fireproof Without Stores)

Mineral Descaling Models:
8" Main Water Pipe: S250
8" Main Hot Water Pipe: S150

Installation Considerations:
Additional smaller descalers models (V3000 or V5000) can also be incorporated into each apartment if individual water heaters are used. Alternatively, significantly larger descalers can be used to (S250 / S350) and depending on the square footage of each level, additional descaler can be placed on ever second or third floor to reenergize the water supply.

A2 One Story
D2 - Elevator Apartment
Artists in Residence

Mineral Descaling Models:
6" Main Water Pipe: S150
4" Main Hot Water Pipe: S50
4" Cooling Tower Pipe: S50

Installation Considerations:
One or two additional descalers could be placed in upper levels to help ensure adequate long-term descaling benefits.

A0 Cape Cod
D3 - Elevator Apartment Fireproof
(Standard Construction Without Stores)

Mineral Descaling Models:
6" Main Water Pipe: S250
4" Main Hot Water Pipe: S100

Installation Considerations:
V3000 desclers could also be installed in each apartment for interested tenants motivated to lower water heater energy consumption, spend less time cleaning bathrooms and protect appliances from corrosion.

D4 - Elevator Cooperatives

Mineral Descaling Models:
6" Main Water Pipe: S250
4" Main Hot Water Pipe: S100
3½" Swimming Pool Pipe: S50
4" Cooling Tower Pipe: S100

Installation Considerations:
Placing additional mineral descalers in strategic locations will not only remove and prevent mineral scaling but also lower energy consumption, and extend the lifespan of vital operating equipment.

A0 Cape Cod
D5 - Elevator Apartment Converted

Mineral Descaling Models:
8" Main Water Pipe: S350

Installation Considerations:
Depending how your building operates and your motivation to remove and prevent mineral scaling you may consider using a S350 model (engineered up to a 14 inch water pipe) as a single contact point. Contact us to help you plan the best approach for your building based on your motivation, building equipment and how water is used.

D6 - Elevator Apartment
Fireproof - With Stores

Mineral Descaling Models:
10" Main Water Pipe: S350
4" Secondary Pipes: S50 (multiple)
6" Main Hot Water Pipe: S150
4" Secondary Hot Pipes: S50 (multiple)
4" Cooling Tower Pipe: S50
(supply and return lines)

Installation Considerations:
Considering this type of building has stores on the street level, it would not be necessary to install any additional descalers to support the stores.

D7 - Elevator Apartment
Semi-Fireproof With Storess

Mineral Descaling Models:
10" Main Water Pipe: S350
4" Secondary Pipes: S50 (multiple)
6" Main Hot Water Pipe: S150
4" Secondary Hot Pipes: S50 (multiple)
4" Cooling Tower Pipe: S50
(supply and return lines)

Installation Considerations:
Considering this type of building has stores on the street level, it would not be necessary to install any additional descalers to support the stores.

D8 - Luxury Elevator Apartment

Mineral Descaling Models:
10" Main Water Pipe: S350
4" Secondary Pipes: S50 (multiple)
6" Main Hot Water Pipe: S150
4" Secondary Hot Pipes: S50 (multiple)
4" Pool and Spa: S100
2' Laundry: none- benefit from other descalers
4" Cooling Tower Pipe: S50
(supply and return lines) 

Installation Considerations:
If the motivation is to descale the entire building while maximizing energy loss and lower overall general maintenance and repairs in replacing parts prone to corrosion, filters, and other considerations; then a customized plan would be a better approach. Contact us so we can learn more about your building and needs.

D9 - Elevator Apartment
(Miscellaneous)

Mineral Descaling Models:
10" Main Water Pipe: S250
4" Secondard Pipes: S50 (multiple)
4" Secondary Hot Water Pipe: S25 (multiple)

Installation Considerations:
Using mineral descaler models with their maximum pipe diameter configurations will still treat and descale your water supply; however, at a slower rate than if a stronger model was used. Taller buildings and properties with a larger square footage will require model with a larger configuration or additional descalers of the same size to ensure complete descaling potential.
