* 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.
C0 - Three Families
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: Optional: V3000 or V5000 for individual units on main hot or cold water pipe |
| • Apartment Building Studies |
C1 - Over Six Families
(Without Stores)
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: Optional: V3000 or V5000 for individual units on main hot or cold water pipe |
| • Apartment Building Studies |
C2 - Five to Six Families
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: Additional smaller descalers could be used to support other equipment. |
| • Apartment Building Studies |
C3 - Four Families
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: Using stronger descalers will create longer and stronger crystal bonds to remove more mineral scale in less time. |
| • Apartment Building Studies |
C4 - Old Law Tenementsy
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: Additional descaling units may be required on upper levels depending on the size of the building. |
| • Apartment Building Studies |
C5 - Converted Dwelling
(or rooming house)
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: If an additional descaler (V3000 or V5000) is placed on the hot water pipe from the water heater, it will cause a stronger descaling effect in showers, bathtubs, sinks, etc becuase the adjusted mineral bonds will be longer and stronger. |
| • Apartment Building Studies |
C6 - Walk-up Cooperative
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: Using stronger descalers on the primary water pipes for the building has the benefit of significantly impacting the water supply as it moves throughout the secondary pipes and into tenant apartments. |
| • Apartment Building Studies |
C7 - Walk-up Apartments
(6+ Families With Stores)
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: Smaller descaler models can be uses to support these estimated pipe sizes and placed in strategic locations instead of using larger models to try to descale the entire building. We can customize an installation plan for your property. |
| • Apartment Building Studies |
C8 - Walk-up Co-op
(Conversion From Loft/ Warehouse)
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: If this type of building is not being used to house multiple family units, additional descalers would not be necessary. |
| • Apartment Building Studies |
C9 - Garden Apartments/ Mobile Home Park/ Trailer Park
|
Mineral Descaling Models: |
| Installation Considerations: Mobile Home/ Trailer Park: V3000 (main water pipe ifor each unit) |
| • Apartment Building Studies • Residential Studies |
