Challenges
The new Tornado ride was experiencing unsightly limescale deposit formation inside the “funnel” where the water was flowing. This was greatly restricting the water flow rate thus affecting the overall enjoyment of the ride. Considerable labor costs, chemicals and downtime were involved to keep the ride scale-free.
Solution
An old SB-XX model was installed on the 3” water line going to the ride which included an 18,000 gallon pool.
Installed
August 8, 2011
Outcome
The limescale has stopped forming where the water flows, allowing the water park ride to enjoy normal flow rates without all the labor, chemicals and downtime.
