Benefits of Proper Filtration for LTHW and CHW Systems

​

Implementing the correct filtration system in your LTHW and CHW circuits offers numerous benefits:

• Reduced Component Failure: Proper filtration minimizes metal component failure, reducing the need for costly replacements and extending the lifespan of your system.

• Maintained Water Distribution: With effective filtration, water distribution is maintained throughout the system, eliminating the need for aggressive cleaning or flushing procedures.

• Controlled Biological Growth: Filtration helps control the levels of biological growth, preventing issues such as biofilm formation that can impair system performance.

• Extended System Life: A well-filtered system experiences less wear and tear, resulting in lower maintenance costs, reduced downtime, and longer component life.

• Optimized Heat Transfer: By preventing the build-up of solids and scale, filtration maintains efficient heat transfer, ensuring your system operates correctly and at its designed efficiency.

• Enhanced Energy Efficiency: Proper filtration helps maintain your system's energy efficiency, leading to lower running costs and reduced environmental impact.

• Minimized Chemical Costs: Effective filtration reduces the need for excessive chemical treatments, lowering operational costs while maintaining water quality.

 

Risks of Operating Without Adequate Filtration

​

Failing to implement the correct filtration system can result in a range of issues that negatively impact your LTHW and CHW systems:

• Erosion of Metal Components: Suspended solids can cause erosion, leading to premature failure of metal components.

• System Corrosion: Without proper filtration, corrosion can accelerate, compromising the integrity of your system.

• Build-Up of Solids and Scale: Unfiltered systems are prone to solids and scale build-up, which reduces water flow and decreases system efficiency.

• Increased Biological Growth: Lack of filtration can lead to uncontrolled biological growth, resulting in operational problems and increased maintenance requirements.

• Accelerated Wear and Tear: Components such as seals and valves are more likely to suffer from wear and tear, leading to higher maintenance costs and system downtime.

• Decreased Heat Transfer: The build-up of contaminants impairs heat transfer, resulting in decreased temperature performance and energy efficiency.

• Increased Chemical Costs: A poorly filtered system requires more chemicals to maintain water quality, increasing operational costs and reducing the effectiveness of water treatment.
