Calorifiers & Hot Water Cylinders

Prevent Scale Build-Up and Improve the Efficiency of Your Calorifiers & Hot Water Cylinders

Optimising the Performance of Commercial Hot Water Systems

Calorifiers and hot water cylinders are critical to the efficient operation of commercial buildings, providing a reliable supply of heated water for various applications. However, where hard water is present, limescale accumulation can significantly impact performance, leading to higher energy consumption, increased maintenance requirements, and a reduced lifespan of equipment.

The Integro™ offers a proven solution to mitigate these challenges. By actively removing existing scale deposits and preventing further formation, the technology ensures optimal heat transfer efficiency without the need for chemical softeners or traditional water treatment methods.

The Impact of Limescale on Hot Water Systems

Limescale build-up is a common challenge in hard water areas, affecting the efficiency and longevity of calorifiers and hot water cylinders. Over time, scaling can cause untold damage.

Key Issues:

Reduced Heat Transfer Efficiency

Scale acts as an insulator, forcing heating elements to work harder to maintain water temperature.

Increased Energy Consumption

Even a thin layer of scale can increase energy use by 10% or more, adding to operational costs.

Frequent Maintenance & System Downtime

Regular descaling is required to restore performance, leading to disruption and increased servicing costs.

Accelerated Wear & Component Failure

Persistent scale build-up leads to overheating, mechanical strain, and premature system failure.

Without intervention, these issues can result in higher operational costs, lower system reliability, and a shorter service life.

How the Integro™ Supports the Efficiency of Hot Water Systems

The Integro™ provides a sustainable, non-intrusive approach to managing limescale in commercial hot water systems. Unlike conventional water softeners, it requires no chemicals or salt, making it both cost-effective and environmentally friendly.

How the Technology Works:

Prevents New Scale Formation – By introducing a controlled electron charge into the water, the Integro™ neutralises scale-forming minerals, preventing them from adhering to heat exchange surfaces.
Quick Removal of Existing Deposits – Over 1-3 months, accumulated scale naturally dissolves and is flushed from the system, restoring lost efficiency.
Optimised Heat Transfer – Without scale interference, heating elements and heat exchangers operate as designed, improving overall system performance.
Minimised Maintenance & Downtime – The need for chemical descaling is significantly reduced, allowing for more predictable and cost-effective maintenance schedules.
Environmentally Sustainable – No consumables, no chemical discharge, and no disruption to water quality.
