SCALA2 Installation Tips (Water Hammer)

In this video, Becky Henderson discusses water hammer and its substantial impact on your plumbing system and the SCALA2 booster pump. Water hammer is notorious for its ability to damage system components, leading to gradual leaks, and generating disruptive noise.

To alleviate the effects of water hammer on the pump, it is essential to maintain an optimal pre-charge pressure in the built-in tank of the SCALA2. The recommended pre-charge pressure should be set at 70% of the target value.

Furthermore, it is advisable to consider the use of a hammer arrestor. This device not only offers additional protection for the system's components but also safeguards your SCALA2 pump.
