Factors of Difference |
Chemical Dosing |
Water Softener |
DELTA DEVICE A Scale Preventer |
| 1. |
Composition of Water |
The Water becomes acidic thereby eating away Copper tubes and pipelines |
Increases the corrosion of tubes and pipelines as water becomes acidic. |
The water remains neutral only the physical properties changes. |
| 2. |
Recurring Cost |
A recurring capital expenditure every year |
Heavy monthly expenses in procurement, inventory, storage, handling and supervision of chemicals and salts to be dozed. |
No Recurring Cost. |
| 3. |
Prevention of Scale |
Removes deposited scale |
Water softener is designed for a particular hardness level (max 600ppm) |
Prevents scale formation and removes existing scales hardness level (upto 2000ppm) |
| 4. |
Maintenance |
Requires daily maintenance and check of water quality. |
Requires regular maintenance and supervision. |
No maintenance required. |
| 5. |
Man Power |
Requires extra manpower for monitoring and dosing of chemicals. |
Special manpower required for regeneration of resin and operation. |
No man power required as DELTA DEVICE - is an online equipment. |
| 6. |
Energy Consumption |
Energy required for running chemicals in condenser tubes. |
Needs electrical energy for operation. |
No energy required for operation thus saves the electricity bills. |
| 7. |
Pollution |
Causes water pollution. |
Disposal of untreated Brine water is a major problem. |
No pollution. |
| 8. |
Inventory |
Extra space for storing chemicals. |
Space for softener is required. |
No space is require as it is installed online. |
| 9. |
Risk Factor |
High risk of burn injury and accidents due to negligence as chemicals are hazardous in Nature. |
NIL |
No risk. |
| 10. |
Pay back |
Adds on recurring cost per financial year. |
NIL |
Low payback period. |
