Project Summary
Reason of Water Filters Installation:
The building tenants are complaining about water discolor issue. After water testing report analysis, two contaminate did stand out which were Turbidity and elevated copper. Turbidity can be removed with sediment filtration. NYBSC design for those filters. The elevated copper will most likely be from electrolysis within the plumbing. A Galvanic corrosion that is caused by self-induced current created by electrical potential of two dissimilar metals in contact with an electrolyte. It can occur when two dissimilar metals (such as copper tube and steel pipe) are connected in the presence of an electrolyte. This can also be caused by cable, and security alarms hooked to the plumbing for a ground. Other symptoms of electrolysis are: pin holes in structure of the plumbing, blue/green
