WHAT IS PH?
• ‘Potential of Hydrogen’ is a logarithmic scale to determine the acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
• Ground water often between pH 6 – 8.5
• Acidic water is corrosive and can damage piping and fittings by leaching metal ions.
• Acidic water makes soluble metal ions harder to be converted to insoluble ions.
• Alkaline water typically has greater scale forming tendencies.
• pH is closely linked to other key components of water.
HOW CAN WE tREAT PH?
• Treated through a sacrificial media or by the additIon of chemicals.
• Different grades of pH correction media depending on how it needs to be elevated by.
• Maintenance will be required to replenish pH correction medias.
• Key to helping other minerals be filtered out.
• Self-cleaning units will perform a scheduled daily clean .
• Chemical dosing often used in boiler tower feeds. If dosed incorrectly can result in significant problems.
