A 5-star luxury hotel in Kunming, China, part of the globally renowned InterContinental Hotels & Resorts brand.
A mineral descaling device was installed to support the kitchen facilities due to:
Reduced water volume
Increased water pressure
Clogging of the dishwasher outlet
Scaling of the steamer
Low heating efficiency
Increased maintenance
Overall reduction in efficiency
2
Months
Scale transformed from hard flakes to soft powder

Hotel: InterContinental Kunming
Location: Kunming, China
Brand: InterContinental Hotels & Resorts
Model: Vulcan S10
Installation Area: Main water line for the kitchen area
Test Method: No cleaning performed before installation to verify effectiveness

Main water line of the restaurant kitchen

The steamer turned the mineral scale into hard flakes that could not be drained out of the steamer's drain hole. To test the effectiveness of the Vulcan device, no cleaning process was carried out before installing the Vulcan descaler.

The mineral scale has been completely turned into powder, so there is no need to open it for cleaning. The steamer and hot water tank could be kept clean just by operating the regular drainage function.
