Hi everyone
Does any one know the best way to clean out scaled up chiller pipework?
I have a customer who has a Blue Box chiller serving process cooling for a plastics factory and a lot of the internal bore of the cold water/glycol pipework is badly scaled up. I would like to clean out the pipe and not replace it. I have heard of descaling pumps but have never used them. Is this the answer and if so what would be a good descaling solution to use?
Thanks in advance for any replies.

Sounds like a rather sick system.
What is the scale? That is the question before treatment! and how did they scale it up?
What is pipe composition? and pipe size?

Fastest and cheapest will be to replace the HE.
