Without professional water treatment<\/strong>, steam and hot water plants<\/strong> will experience enormous problems<\/strong> and high follow-up costs<\/strong>. Feed water must always be treated and controlled<\/strong> because natural waters, groundwater or drinking water carry various accompanying substances<\/strong>. For example, hardness constituents<\/strong> in water can form poorly soluble compounds<\/strong> that settle in steam boilers, pipes, tanks and walls<\/strong>. These deposits<\/strong> are the cause of corrosion<\/strong> and heat loss.<\/strong><\/p> For example, if untreated water<\/strong> with 20 \u00b0dH flows into a steam boiler<\/strong>for 10 hours, already 1 mm of lime layer<\/strong> is formed on the inner wall of the boiler. In this case, 1 mm of lime layer<\/strong> may already lead to a loss of efficiency of up to 20%.<\/strong> The thicker the lime layer, the higher the risk of overheating, cracking and corrosion<\/strong>. At the same time, theconsumption of energy and water increases<\/strong>. In the worst case (e.g. heat accumulation and partial overheating<\/strong> between the lime layer and the boiler wall), operating and production losses<\/strong> occur.<\/p> Significant savings potentials can be generated<\/strong> with suitable water treatment<\/strong>. Our Hagelschuer experts help you to save water and energy,<\/strong> so you not only protect<\/strong> the environment,<\/strong> but you also ensure an economical operation of your boiler system<\/strong>.<\/p>
