Bulk Boiler Wash - Scale Remover

Boiler Wash is an alkaline cleaner formulated with potassium hydroxide at 3%-8% by concentration and disodium trioxosilicate both at 0-4% to remove scale, corrosion, and grease from boilers and heat exchangers. It works effectively on both fire-tube and tower boiler systems, promoting thorough cleaning without excessive reactivity. Ideal for maintenance of industrial boiler systems.

Boiler Wash Benefits:

• Non-flammable
• Low reactivity
• Effective scale & rust removal
• Available in bulk for industrial use

Boiler Wash Applications:

Boiler Wash is a water treatment solution formulated to remove scale, corrosion, oil, grease, and rust from new boilers, closed loops, heat exchange tubes, surfaces, towers, and offline boilers.

Fire-Tube Boilers

Fill the boiler with water and keep the top manhole or handhole open. Add 1–2 gallons of Boiler Wash per 100 gallons of water. Heat the boiler until the water begins to boil, then shut it off. For the next hour, cycle the boiler on for 1 minute every 15 minutes to prevent overflow. When cleaning is complete, drain and rinse thoroughly.

Towers

Use 1 gallon of Boiler Wash per 1,000 gallons of water. Close the bleed valve and keep the circulation pump running to ensure proper mixing. After 1–2 hours, open the lowest bleed valves to begin draining the dirty solution. Boiler Wash may continue to recirculate for several hours before bleeding. Once cleaning is complete, restore the bleed rate and resume normal tower treatment at four times the standard dose.
