Why Do Steam Boilers Need Water Treatment?

It’s crucial to ensure that the water fed into your boiler is of an adequate quality, otherwise, you’re likely to experience a range of frustrating and costly issues.

How Steam Boilers Work

While the objective of all steam boilers is to heat water to generate steam, there are two different types, each with its method of achieving that aim.

 

  • Fire tube – Heat is generated using energy, which is then passed through tubes in the boiler, heating the water around them.

 

  • Water tube – In an opposite method, water is passed through tubes in the boiler while heat is circulated through them, heating the water in the tubes.

 

Regardless of type, all boilers rely on the use of either electricity or a combustible fuel such as gas or oil to heat water and produce steam. Some operate at a higher pressure than others, and different industries require varying levels of pressure.

The universal factor is the need to control the quality and pH level of the water within the boiler in order to prevent issues such as corrosion, scale buildup or pump failure.

Our Testimonials

RB Cleobury
RB Cleobury
Managing Director

We are a company specialising in water audits and leak detection and we are often asked about Legionella and Risk Assessments by our client. Having met and assessed WaterCare Solutions we were happy to put them forward to a client managing a large industrial estate, who was unaware as to their level of non-compliance in respect of the A.C.O.P L8 (Rev4) & HSG274 Part 2.

Following a risk assessment of the unoccupied units and a very successful training session, the client is now compliant and understands their responsibilities. We have furthered our relationship with the client and are pleased to recommend WaterCare Solutions whenever we get an enquiry.

Mark and now WaterCare Solutions have looked after our water tube boilers for most of their 34 years life and despite them having a predicted 25-year lifespan they are still going strong. A fitting testimony to the great water treatment they have received over the years.

With our pre-treatment plant and ultra-pure turbine water injection system also in safe hands you need look no further for a complete chemical and service package for your plant.

Highly recommend.

Switching water treatment companies was not a decision we made lightly, however, I am pleased to say Mark and the team at WaterCare Solutions exceeded our expectations. Not only was the transition seamless but we now realise we should have made the move much sooner. We finally have the confidence that our water systems are fully compliant. Don’t be afraid to change and don’t put up with second rate, there are quality companies out there and WaterCare Solutions are one of them.

Looking forward to a long successful partnership.

We were looking for a new equipment package for our cooling tower, but after having look at several manufacturers online we were confused as to what to go with. WaterCare Solutions discussed the pros and cons of several different options and costs with us and feel we now have the best fit for our process. A great install and commissioning too; unit is working well and we could not be more pleased.
