Specifications
AquaSolve scale prevention system shall be installed
on the main water service pipe just after it enters the
building, but after other whole building water safety
devices (backflow preventers or pressure reducing
valves), to effectively address water hardness con-
cerns. A system may also be installed further down-
stream to protect specific equipment or areas within
a plumbing system. The system shall be plumbed
with a bypass valve to allow isolation of tank(s) and
to allow the bypass of untreated water in the event
that service or media replacement be necessary. The
installation area should be suitable in size for the
tank(s) to be serviced without encumbrance and sit
upright on a flat level surface.
The system must operate in an upflow manner and
does not require additional water to backwash, flush,
or regenerate once put into service. The system does
not require any chemical additives and does not
require electricity for operation.
Multi-tank systems shall be installed in parallel
with PVC/CPVC manifold to meet peak flow rate
requirements – see image below.
Spotting May Occur on External Plumbing Surfaces.
AquaSolve media systems perform best in single pass pota-
ble water applications with NO additional chemical additives.
Depending on hardness, soft scale spotting may occur. Soft scale
spots in most cases can be easily wiped down with a damp cloth
and will not form hard scale deposits. A Point of Use (POU) Water
Softener should be used on mandatory spot-free applications (e.g.
glass stemware, dishware).
NOTICE
Using AquaSolve With Other Water Treatment Equipment.
Due to the unique properties of AquaSolve, there are some unique
requirements for using AquaSolve in conjunction with other forms
of water treatment:
1. AquaSolve must be the last stage in the treatment chain. Do
not install any filters after Lync AquaSolve or before any devic-
es for which scale prevention is required. POU filters, e.g. car-
bon, RO or Ultraviolet (UV) are exempt from this requirement.
2. Do not apply any other antiscalants before or after AquaSolve.
3. The addition of soaps, chemicals, or cleaners, before or after
AquaSolve treatment, may reverse its anti-scale treatment
effects and/or create water with a heavy residue or spotting
potential. Any adverse conditions caused by the addition of
soaps, chemicals, or cleaners are the sole responsibility of the
end user.
4. AquaSolve is not a water softener and does not soften the
water - water treatment chemistry (e.g. antiscalants, seque-
trants, soaps, chemicals or cleaners etc.) will most likely have
to be changed to be compatible with Lync AquaSolve treat-
ed water. Laundry and ware-washing chemistry will likewise
require adjustments.
WARNING
• Not for use on closed loop systems.
• Do not let the system freeze. Damage to the tank may result.
• System must be operated in a vertical position. Do not lay
it down during operation. The system may be placed in any
position for shipping and installation but must be operated in
the vertical position.
• Place the system on a smooth, level surface. Because the sys-
tem operates in an upflow, fluidized bed mode, having a level
surface is more important than with a softener or media filter.
• A bypass valve should be installed on every system to facili-
tate installation and service.
• Observe all local plumbing and building codes when installing
the system.
CAUTION
Standards
Independent scientific testing has confirmed
Template Assisted Crystallization (TAC) technology
provides scale reduction of over 95+%. Testing was
conducted under protocol based on DVGW W512
test to access control of scale formation.
