Middle East Hospital: 17 Months With No Acid Cleaning

Home 9 Case Studies and Results 9 Middle East Hospital: 17 Months With No Acid Cleaning
Key results
17+ months scale-free operation
0 acid cleanings since install
0 shutdowns for cleaning

The Challenge

  • Shutdowns every 3–4 months for acid cleaning
  • Reduced thermal efficiency in heat exchangers
  • Safety risks from chemical handling
  • Seal and gasket wear from cleaning agents

The Solution

Two HydroFLOW® units — a Pearl Plus on the make-up water line and an i100 on the heat exchanger inlet — were installed on 5 February 2024 with a HydroKNCT remote monitoring unit, with no downtime or plumbing changes. The signal disrupts the conditions that bond scale to surfaces, so limescale crystallisation is prevented despite municipal water above 380 ppm CaCO₃.

Key Outcomes

R

No cleaning required for over 17 months

R

Pressure, temperature and flow remained stable

R

Shutdowns every 3–4 months eliminated

R

Results confirmed by site team after 17 months

Independent Verification

All results in this study were measured and verified by third-party facilities managers and technical staff.
