Aqua Energy Solutions Ltd

Introducing a revolution in limescale protection using the UK designed and manufactured AquaVantage digital water treatment system. The AV treatment not only prevents limescale formation but actively dissolves existing limescale within a water system leaving pipes and appliances clean and free of scale, usually within weeks of operation. Units are non-invasive, rarely requiring modifications to existing pipework, meaning no system downtime.

No servicing or maintenance required. No chemicals or salt required. Environmentally friendly. A true fit and forget product with clearly visible indication of active treatment.

Improved water quality results in positive benefits for skin conditions such as psoriasis and eczema and softness of hair. 

Running costs are minimal. A typical residential unit will cost 1p per day in energy, annual cost less than a single block of water softener salt.

Design operational life span is 20 years minimum.

By removing any existing limescale formations the breeding grounds for bacteria, in particular Legionella, are removed resulting in a significant risk reduction of system contamination.

Carbon Trust statistics state that a 1mm build up of limescale on a heating element or heat exchanger surface requires 7% more energy to heat water. Increased thickness of scale can require up to 40% more energy to heat water. Actively removing limescale results in an energy saving, reducing energy costs and improving green credentials.

Effective range of treatment is 2km. Water remains treated for a minimum of 7 days in static water conditions.
No restriction regarding minimum or maximum flow rates. Range of units available to treat pipe sizes from 15mm diameter up to 2000mm diameter.

Swimming pools – what are the benefits of AquaVantage water treatment when fitted to a swimming pool installation?

1. pH bounce is reduced.
2. Acid, chlorine, coagulant  and sodium bicarbonate are all reduced
3. Heating energy required is significantly reduced as limescale on heat exchangers is removed restoring efficiency to optimum levels and extending the operational life of the heating plant.
4. Turnover period – treated water in a pool circulates more efficiently which allows for faster re-opening of a pool after a contamination incident.
5. AV treatment reduces the frequency of cleaning required – reduces maintenance costs
6. Improves general pool cleanliness with a noticeable reduction of scum lines
7. Filters are kept cleaner for longer, extending their effective life and reducing costs for replacements.
8. The introduction of calcium hypochlorite can increase calcium hardness levels even in soft water areas.
9. Water quality is significantly improved creating crystal clear, sparkling water which feels softer. Reduced “red eye” is a major benefit to the bather and therefore the operator

AV treatment comparison -vs- traditional salt regeneration water softener

AV UNIT

  • No plumbing modifications generally required
  • Physically small size. Can be installed without loss of storage space
  • Does not require chemicals or salt
  • Retains essential minerals, calcium and magnesium
  • AV water is safe to drink and can improve the taste. Treated water is beneficial to plants and safe to use in boiler systems and water heaters
  • Requires no servicing or maintenance
  • No risk of water leakage
  • No water wasted
  • No flow restrictions or limitations
  • Fit and forget technology with no ongoing servicing costs
  • Will actively remove existing limescale deposits within a system improving flow and reducing energy costs
  • Designed to last 20 years with minimal energy consumption. Residential unit costs 1p per day in electricity
     

WATER SOFTENER

  • Needs to be physically plumbed in to water system
  • Physically large using up useful storage space and requiring access for servicing
  • Requires a constant supply of salt
  • Removes calcium and magnesium and replaces them with sodium chloride (salt)
  • Advisable not to drink softened water due to sodium content. Not suitable for watering plants. Not suitable for use in most boilers due to the corrosive effects of sodium. (Exception is the hot water side of combination boilers)
  • Should be regularly serviced. Resin beads will require replacement during the operational life of the unit
  • Pipework seals will require replacement during the operational lifespan of the unit
  • Regular regeneration cycles will flush resin beads and discharge water into the drainage system wasting water and, on metered supplies, will cost money
  • Maximum flow rates apply dependent on the model selected
  • Continuous ongoing costs for salt and servicing
  • Cannot remove existing limescale deposits
  • Operational lifespan dependent on model and usage
     

Why stop at water?– 

With factory modifications to software and power outputs, units have been successfully fitted to fuel lines, gas, oil, diesel, LPG resulting in energy savings between 5-15% with no loss of performance. 

Improved combustion efficiency results in cleaner burning, lower emissions and less frequent component replacements. 

At Aqua-Energy-Solutions Ltd we offer a free, no obligation site survey, report and recommendations throughout the UK. 

Globally wherever there is a pipe containing water or fuel, AV technology will offer a significant benefit.
