Waslix: Impulse Frequency Mineral Descaler Technology
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.

Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: This building type can be up to 9 stories high and the office environment covers 1 story. The primary descaling purpose would be to support building equipment. Additional descaler can be installed for each level. |

O2 – Office Only
2 – 6 Stories
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: The primary descaling purpose would be to support building equipment- typically grouped in a mechanical room. A stronger descaler would be installed on the primary water pip for the building as a centralized treatment location. Additional descaler can be installed on rooftop equipment. |

7 – 19 Stories
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: A standard installation plan is to always install a mineral descaler on the primary water pipe that supplies the building with water. This descales the water before it comes into company with any mechanical components, parts or filters. A primary concern will be to remove and prevent mineral scaling in building support equipment to lower energy costs, extend equipment lifespans and decrease general maintenance. |

|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: The best approach for a building of this use and size would be to support individual equipment. If there is an interest to descale the entire build as part of a holistic energy and sustainability plan to then incorporate multiple mineral descalers instead of relying on one or two very large descalers. |

O5 – Office With Commerce
1 To 6 Stories
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: If the building ownership is interested in descaling the entire building it would be better to install multiple descalers. 1-3 larger descalers installed on primary water supply lines could also be used but installing smaller descalers in strategic locations will reenergize the water as it moves through the building (and equipment) creating even long and stronger descaling bonds. |

O6 – Office With Commerce
7 – 19 Stories
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: This installation primary purpose is to support building equipment to lower energy consumption and the wasted water associated with cooling tower blow downs. A secondary descaling benefit will occur over time in general water pipe lines as water circulates from street to upper building levels. |

O7 – Professional Buildings
(Stand Alone Funeral Homes)
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: Using a stronger mineral descaler on the main cold water pipe line will carry the benefit through hot water tanks/ boilers/ heat exchangers and into the hot water supply for restroom facilities. |
| • Office Buildings • Heat Exchangers |
O8 – Office With Apartments Only
(No Commerce)
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: Installing smaller mineral descalers on the main water pipe entering tenant units will reenergize the water to offer a stronger descaling benefit in water heaters and general appliances. This will help to prevent shortened water heater lifespans caused by mineral scale damage that often results in water tanks bursting and leaking. |

O9 – Miscellaneous And Old Style Bank Buildings
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: This type of building can benefit greatly from a holistic mineral descaling plan to help prevent future corrosion and repetitive general maintenance involved with preplacing degraded equipment parts connected to mineral scaling corrosion. |
