Hot Water HPF Closed Loop Filtration System Solves Problems in Office High-Rise

GoalImprove closed-loop system performance by reducing corrosion and suspended solids through enhanced filtration and corrosion protection.

Improved system performance by reducing iron levels from over 14 ppm to less than 1 ppm within four months.

Reduced corrosion and suspended solids through enhanced filtration and corrosion inhibition.

Increased operational efficiency while lowering total costs of operation.

<p><!-- wp:heading {"level":5} --></p> <h5 class="wp-block-heading">Customer Challenge</h5> <p><!-- /wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>A 407,855 square foot high-rise office building in New Brunswick, Canada had a 6 module Multistack<sup>&reg;</sup> chiller system installed for one year that was experiencing problems. The chiller system was continuously plugging with corrosion by-products and shutting down.
