HVAC Water Treatment: Preventing Fouling and Scaling - Sidestream Filtration with Filter Bags

HVAC Water Treatment: Preventing Fouling and Scaling - Sidestream Filtration with Filter Bags

The Challenge

HVAC systems suffer from reduced efficiency due to fouling and scaling in heating and cooling circuits. Untreated water leads to increased energy consumption, equipment wear, and system failures.

The Solution: Preventive Water Filtration

Filter bags remove particles that contribute to fouling and scaling, maintaining system efficiency and extending equipment life. Regular filtration is more cost-effective than reactive maintenance.

Recommended Filter Selection:

  • Standard Systems: Polypropylene felt (5 - 50micron)
  • High-Temperature Applications: Polyester felt (5 -25 micron)
  • Closed Loop Systems: Extended life media for longer intervals

Key Benefits

  • Maintains heat transfer efficiency
  • Reduces energy consumption
  • Extends equipment service life
  • Lower maintenance requirements

System Design

Size 1 or 2 bags typically handle most HVAC applications. Consider sidestream filtration for large systems to treat a portion of flow continuously.
