8. Commercial and Industrial Applications: Benefits

harsh detergents can now be avoided. This saves many 
hours when cleaning the rooms. 

Kitchen and kitchen appliances

Kitchen  surfaces,  sinks,  faucets  and  fixtures  stay 
cleaner. You will quickly notice that scale is visible but 
acts like a fine ‘dust’ which can be removed easily with 
a damp cloth. Surfaces and tiles will be smoother and 
shinier again.

Cleaner dishwashers

Dishwashers  operate  with  less  detergent  and  less 
additives.  The  use  of  dishwasher  detergent  can  be 
reduced by up to 25%. Typical spotting on dishware is 
reduced or no longer apparent.

Laundry and washing machines

Cleaning  is  more  effective  as  Vulcan-treated  water 
lathers noticeably more. The same amount of detergent 
will  give  you  better  cleaning  results.  You  can  often 
reduce  the  amount  of  washing  detergents  in  your 
daily  use  or  stay  away  from  very  aggressive  agents. 
Furthermore, Vulcan extends the life of the machine‘s 
heating element.

Grease traps

Vulcan  improves  the  handling  of  grease  separators  in 
two ways: The grease that is collected on top forms less 
clusters and is more homogenous which makes it easier 
to pump it into an external tank. The Vulcan-treatment 
also prevents the remaining water from scaling in the 
tank; pipes, valves and pumps stay cleaner.

Gardening and irrigation

Garden irrigation with sprinklers becomes more reliable 
as the nozzles stay free of scale longer. Vulcan-treated 
water can be absorbed and processed better by plants. 
As there are less scale spots on the leaves your plants 
take up water and rain water better and look healthier.

Reverse osmosis filters

Reverse osmosis filters for your tap drinking water last 
longer. Water filters and RO-membranes will work more 
efficiently and the permeate is easier to handle.

Spas, swimming pools and jacuzzis

Swimming pools:

 Vulcan makes pool cleaning much 

easier: scale on the water line is looser and easier to 
wipe off. Pool covers and tiles on the floor or walls will 
show less hard csale stains. Vulcan reduces deposits in 
the  pipes  and  valves.  The  sensitive  circulation  pumps 
last longer, sand filter need less changing and you can 
cut down on chlorine tablets.

Jacuzzis: 

The  combination  of  water,  circulating  air 

and pressure in a hot tub tremendously enhances scale 
build-up. Vulcan makes the cleaning of the tub easier. 
Vulcan reduces deposits in the pipes and valves. Covers 
and tiles on the floor or walls will show less hard scale 
stains.

Spa  Treatment  Areas  &  Wellness: 

Shower  heads 

stay clean longer. Soap and detergent use can be cut 
back by up to 25%. The water will feel as if it is "softer" 
(due to a decrease in water surface tension). Generally, 
soap  will  lather  up  more.  Skin  will  feel  smoother  and 
hair will be much more manageable because the scale 
particles no longer makes it so frizzy.

8.5  A healthier Lifestyle

Mineral rich drinking water

Vulcan does not interfere with the natural composition 
of  drinking  water.  Important  minerals  remain  in  the 
water for a healthy diet. Especially young children and 
elderly  people  benefit  from  the  healthy  calcium  and 
magnesium content that naturally is found in tap water.

Water  tastes  and  smells  better  and  gives  food 
and beverages its natural flavor

Vulcan  keeps  the  natural 
taste  of  water  as  it  does 
not  change  its  chemical 
composition.  This  gives 
you  the  best  tasting  water 
possible. Vulcan cleans the 
piping  system  once  again 
and therefore cleans it from 
rust particles. Rust is gone 
and can no longer add any 
unwanted flavor any more.
