Drastically Reduce Your Fuel Bills by Using the Chemical De-Scale

As
well as the risk of scale build up causing damage to a boiler, it can
also drastically increase fuel costs. Just 1.5 mm of scale could add
more than 5% to the fuel bill - for a continuously operating 5 t/h
boiler this is additional fuel bill of approximately £60,000 per annum!
Cochran service department strip down hundreds of boilers each year
for their annual insurance survey and on many occasions find evidence of
scale. If scale has built up, for whatever reason, it should be removed
as a priority.
The problem became being able to get people to site quickly to carry
out a de-scale whilst the boiler was off line. The solution for Cochran
is to do it ourselves. We have recruited a specialist water treatment engineer, Mr John Leach and his technicians, who can respond immediately to the call from site when scale is found.
Cochran will provide the labour and chemicals (and arrange their safe
disposal) so that the boiler can be de-scaled whilst the boiler is
off-line, minimising disruption and maximising the life and efficiency
of the boiler.
Depending on the condition of the boiler and the operating regime the
payback on removing scale from the water-side of your boiler is a
matter of weeks
