Noticing elevated copper levels in your water system? This is a common problem we come across…
If you’re carrying out a CPC clean (as we recommend) and not flushing the system to drain, you may occasionally see raised copper levels. This is usually linked to poor installation practices – particularly an excess or incorrect use of flux.
There’s an approved method, highlighted in BG 29 (2020), the BSRIA guide on Pre-Commission Cleaning, known as the WRAS-Approved Installation Method (AIM) that outlines the correct approach and points out that it is important to avoid excessive use of flux.
Whatever the cause, Hydrosphere provides a free test on water samples to confirm whether our specialist equipment to remove copper is the correct solution for your setup.
Let’s keep systems clean, efficient, and compliant.
