7. Commercial and Industrial Applications
7.5 Hospitals, Nursing Homes, Residences
Hospitals, nursing homes or health care facilities all go through a large
quantity of water on a daily basis. Traditional salt-based water softeners
produce sodium-rich water which is not recommended for elderly guests
and patients. Vulcan protects the piping system and appliances while
keeping the original, healthy composition of the water and decreasing
bacterial growth.
7.6 Agriculture: Plants, Livestock, Machinery
Vulcan keeps pipes free of scale deposits, protects fine nozzles used for
irrigation, and keeps the natural mineral-rich composition of the water.
It reduces or eliminates bacterial growth. Vulcan also has a positive
effect on water for lifestock and plants as they will absorb and process
the water better. Additives to water such as fertilizers, vitamins, etc. mix
very well with Vulcan-treated water
7.7 Industrial Applications
With Vulcan, your equipment and machinery will last longer, saving you
time and money. Use Vulcan to protect: cooling towers, heat exchangers,
refrigeration systems, vacuum pumps and valves, grinders and mixers,
condensers, industrial ovens or presses, chillers, etc.
7.8 Maritime Applications
A ship carries a lot of machinery and equipment, which come in contact
with water. Scale deposits in the piping system can cause fatal damage
to engines and turbines, which are very expensive to repair. In the daily
use of water on board (in bathrooms, kitchens, swimming pools, etc.)
Vulcan helps to eliminate problems caused by scale.
