In June of 2023, a 4" ScaleRx Redline was installed on the main water line of a large, well known assisted living facility in Bismark, ND. Bismark has a water hardness rating of 7.2 gpg, which results in large amounts of limescale build up on plumbing fixtures and piping systems. After 2 years of operation with ScaleRx Redline, limescale build up on fixtures, faucets and drinking fountains was virtually eliminated. Additionally, limescale accumulation on piping connections was dramatically reduced. Combined, this saved hundreds of hours of cleaning time and resulted in substantial cost savings.

NSF/ANSI 61 Compliance and Cost Benefits:

NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 certification ensures that Scale RX meets stringent health and safety requirements for drinking water system components, verifying that no harmful contaminants leach into your water supply. This compliance translates directly into significant cost savings as Scale RX’s patented Turbulent Galvanic Polarization (TGP) technology prevents up to 76% of limescale buildup on heating elements and throughout plumbing systems . By maintaining system efficiency, Scale RX reduces energy consumption costs associated with limescale (which can waste up to 29% of energy with just 1/8" scale thickness) , extends equipment lifespan, and eliminates expensive maintenance and replacement costs typically required with traditional water treatment systems .

NSF/ANSI 372 Compliance and Cost Benefits:

Scale RX’s certification to NSF/ANSI/CAN 372 confirms it meets the stringent lead content requirements of less than 0.25% weighted average, ensuring compliance with the Safe Drinking Water Act and various state regulations . Unlike traditional water softeners that require salt, resin beads, backflushing, and regular maintenance, Scale RX offers a “set it and forget it” solution with no filters, power source, or maintenance requirements . This maintenance-free operation provides immediate ROI through eliminated chemical costs, reduced labor expenses, and prevention of premature equipment failure due to lead contamination concerns, making it an economically advantageous solution for both residential and commercial applications .

Zero-Maintenance Scale Inhibitors Reduce Hospital Maintenance Needs

Hard water issues are pervasive, affecting nearly 90% of healthcare facilities like yours. Traditional water softening systems, while effective, demand significant labor and upkeep to combat limescale buildup. This translates into extensive downtime, increased maintenance costs, and a strain on your maintenance team. Enter ScaleRX®, American Valve’s innovative zero-maintenance scale inhibitor, designed to revolutionize the way you address hard water challenges in your healthcare facility.

Compared to traditional water softening systems that require frequent regeneration, backwashing, and the handling of bulky and expensive salt and a nearby power source, ScaleRX stands out as a zero-maintenance alternative. With ScaleRX, the need for constant monitoring, preventative maintenance, and manual interventions is eliminated. Its cutting-edge technology works proactively to prevent limescale formation, sparing your staff from the burden of extensive descaling chemicals and maintenance. This not only saves time but also contributes to a more streamlined and efficient operation of your plumbing and HVAC systems.

Incorporating ScaleRX into your health facility’s water systems is not just a commitment to water quality but also a strategic decision to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of equipment, minimize labor, and free your budget from the expense of maintaining water softeners. Make the switch to ScaleRX and experience a maintenance-free solution that reduces operating expenses and maintenance needs, ensures the longevity of your water systems, and contributes to a more sustainable and cost-effective healthcare environment.
