The Challenge
Plaça Vuit is a traditional pizzeria in the heart of Sa Pobla. With a busy kitchen, service bar, and guest restrooms, they needed a simple, effective solution to prevent mineral scale throughout their water system. One unit on the main cold water pipe would need to protect everything.
The Solution: One Unit Protects All
Cold Water Main Pipe
Installation: 1 x Vulcan 3000 on the cold water pipe
By installing a single Vulcan 3000 on the main cold water line entering the restaurant, every outlet receives protected water. The kitchen dishwasher and prep sinks, the bar glasswasher and ice machine, and the guest restroom fixtures all benefit from scale prevention.
Vulcan Model Used
This pizzeria installed the Vulcan 3000, ideal for smaller commercial applications with pipe diameters up to 1.5 inches and flow rates up to 13 GPM.
