WATER QUALITY UPDATE PROTECTS SCHOOL MECHANICAL SYSTEM
PROJECT-AT-A-GLANCE
Location: High School, Kansas
Engineers: Latimer Sommers & Associates
Lead: William Bassette, P.E., LEED AP, and Vice President
Product Focus: SEP4TM 4-in-1 hydraulic, air, dirt and magnetic separator
Challenge: Water hardness and quality
Overview:
Sometimes, things don’t go as planned. Sometimes, you discover that a new heat exchanger is leaking on a commercial boiler after it had already been replaced once before, within the last three years. William Bassette, P.E., LEED AP, and vice president of Latimer Sommers & Associates, was asked to provide design support to a high school in Kansas that was tired of bad news.
“The SEP4 helps scrub the microbubbles out of the system effectively.
Since the system had a VFD driven system pump, the SEP4 also
ensured proper primary/secondary piping for the new boiler.”
