Challenges

The player’s sauna room’s heating elements were scaling up dramatically from the steam being generated. The problem got so bad, the sauna had to be shut down often to be able to undergo cleaning out or replacing the heating elements from the limescale formation.

Solution

A commercial ScaleBlaster model was installed on the water line going to the sauna.

Installed

September 23, 2013

Outcome

Immediately after installing the ScaleBlaster unit, the scaling issues went away. The maintenance department no longer has to shut down the sauna to clean out the heating elements or replace them. The NBA stars are now able to enjoy their sauna without any maintenance issues closing down the first-class recreation facility.
