CASE: Investment paid off in under a year

Limescale in domestic hot water caused major issues with poor heating economy and scaling in aerators and sanitary fixtures.

At a property in Copenhagen, Guldager has installed a ”UniSoft® Hydrus” softening system in the property's central heating plant to descale the domestic hot water for more than 400 apartments. In addition to fewer issues with clogged aerators for residents, the property achieved savings on district heating costs of more than 20%.

The savings were achieved through a significantly improved cooling of the district heating water, allowing the investment in the softening system to pay for itself in less than a year.

FAQ – find answers to the most frequently asked questions

Is corrosion protection necessary today?

Yes, although most modern installations are built using corrosion-resistant materials, it is still necessary to protect steel vessels, sand filters, etc. Furthermore, there are tens of thousands of older installations made of galvanized steel that can remain operational for many more years with active corrosion protection.

Once the hot water tank is removed, we surely no longer need corrosion protection?

Yes, remember that the piping system still requires protection against corrosion.

How can water softening improve system operation?

You prevent scale deposits on heating elements as well as in pumps and valves, thereby reducing maintenance expenditures.

Is it necessary to disinfect the vessel annually?

Yes, an annual cleaning of the vessel combined with chlorine dioxide disinfection is recommended as the most effective countermeasure against Legionella.

Does corrosion protection not remove limescale?

No, it solely prevents corrosion. However, limescale can be removed by installing a water softening system.
