Problems and their solutions

Where do the costly problems with water systems come from?

The water circulation system in a property is like the blood circulation in a human being – but what happens when it starts to clog up with limescale, corrosion, sedimentation and bacteria?

Heating systems

  • Heating is not evenly distributed between apartments or rooms.
  • The heating capacity remains low, and some rooms are too cold.
  • Uneven heat distribution in underfloor heating
  • Thermostats and radiator valves become blocked.
  • The energy transfer capacity of water decreases.
  • Energy efficiency is falling. Maintenance and repair costs are rising.

Cooling systems

  • Cooling is not evenly distributed between apartments or rooms.
  • The efficiency ratio will decrease and operating costs will increase.
  • Energy efficiency is falling.
  • Failures of control systems (e.g. heat sinks) will increase.
  • Maintenance and repair costs are rising.
  • The life cycle of the heat exchanger and piping is shortened.
  • Bacteria are spread into indoor air as a result of leaks.

Domestic water systems

  • The pipes are blocked or leaking.
  • The water pressure deacreases.
  • Limescale and sedimentation damage equipment and cause problems for building users.
  • Legionella and bacteria grows in pipes.
  • The water has an unpleasant taste.
  • Pipe renovations are needed earlier than planned.
  • Maintenance and repair costs increases.

Industrial processes

  • The flow is weakening.
  • Large quantities of environmentally harmful chemicals are needed.
  • Downtime in production processes is becoming more common.
  • Legionella and bacteria cause problems.
  • Recycling costs for chemically treated water will increase.
  • Maintenance and repair costs are rising.

Humidification systems

  • The humidification efficiency of the system decreases and the operating costs increase.
  • Uneven distribution of humidification
  • Bacteria are spread through the humidification system.
  • Service intervals are increasing.
    Maintenance and repair costs are rising.
  • The life cycle of the system is shortened.

Beneflow solves and prevents

Water pipes accumulate nasty blockages and sediment deposits over time. They consist of fine particles, limescale and impurities that come with the water. The Beneflow water purification system softens and dissolves the deposits and prevents them from forming in the future.

  • Dissolving and preventing blockages: over time, limescale, rust and other contaminants build up inside pipes. Beneflow softens and dissolves these deposits, preventing further build-up and keeping pipes and heat transfer surfaces clean.
  • Control pitting: copper pipes can develop pitting, which, as it progresses, leads to leaks. Beneflow cleans the pipes, and thus also slows down the progression of corrosion.
  • Functioning valves and even heat: radiator valves can become blocked by deposits, preventing efficient heat transfer. Beneflow cleans the valves, ensuring even heat distribution in all rooms.
    Bacterial freedom from biofilms. Beneflow quickly removes biofilms and prevents the spread of bacteria into the plumbing system.
  • Long-term water flow: Beneflow dissolves the precipitates and the water flow remains normal, extending the life of the pipelines and avoiding premature pipe repairs.
