  • Page 7: Water Conditioning

    WATER CONDITIONING Furnishing the steam generator with treated water to reduce scale formation is important. Scale formation will reduce steam output, cause premature component failure, and shorten equipment life. Most water supplies contain scale producing minerals such as Calcium and Magnesium. As steam is generated, the minerals remain and dissolve into the water.
