Mineral scaling has been proven to increase energy consumption, decrease equipment longevity and waste water in building support equipment

“NYC climate commitment is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 80% by 2050”

Energy Loss and Productivity caused by hard water scale



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.


L1 – Loft Over 8 Stories
L1 – Loft Over 8 Stories
(Mid Manhattan Type)

Mineral Descaling Models:
8" Main Water Pipe: S350
4" Main Hot Water Pipe: S50

Installation Considerations:
Additional mineral descaling models may be required based on the core water based equipment and machinery used to support this building.
• Office Buildings
• Cooling Towers

L2 – Loft Fireproof And Storage
L2 – Loft Fireproof And Storage
(Without Stores)

Mineral Descaling Models:
8" Main Water Pipe: S250
(multiple locations)
6" Main Hot Water Pipe: S150
2½" Cooling Tower Pipe: S25

Installation Considerations:
This installation is based on a higher occupancy rate than L1 Loft buildings. Instead of installing 1 significantly larger descaler model to descale the entire building smaller descaler can be positional on primary water pipes to support multiple levels.
• Office Buildings
• Cooling Towers

L3 – Loft Semi-Fireproof
L3 – Loft Semi-Fireproof

Mineral Descaling Models:
8" Main Water Pipe: S250
(multiple locations)
3½" Main Hot Water Pipe: S50
2½" Cooling Tower Pipe: S25

Installation Considerations:
This installation is based on a higher occupancy rate than L1 Loft buildings. Instead of installing 1 significantly larger descaler model to descale the entire building smaller descaler can be positional on primary water pipes to support multiple levels.
• Office Buildings
• Cooling Towers




L8 – Loft With Retail Stores
L8 – Loft With Retail Stores
(Other Than Type One)

Mineral Descaling Models:
6" Main Water Pipe: S150
(multiple locations)
3½" Main Hot Water Pipe: S50
2" Retail Support Pipes: S10
2½" Evaporative Cooling: S25

Installation Considerations:
Lofts used as a residential dwelling will have a different installation plan that an office occupied space due to the higher water demands.
• Office Buildings
• Cooling Towers
L9 – Miscellaneous Loft
L9 – Miscellaneous Loft

Mineral Descaling Models:
6" Main Water Pipe: S250
(basement/ street level and upper half)
3½" Main Hot Water Pipe: S100
2½" Evaporative Cooling: S25

Installation Considerations:
If part of the loft space I being used by a health club/ gym, a stronger descaler can be used on the primary hot water pipe. This will significantly help to keep showering and change room facilities cleaner with less effort.
• Office Buildings
• 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.
