# HydroFlux Technology

> HydroFlux is a patented magnetic water treatment system that removes iron oxide and biomass from closed-loop HVAC water systems without chemicals or electricity. Protected by US Patent 9,719,738, it uses a Halbach-array configuration to concentrate a 1 Tesla magnetic field inside the pipe, promoting iron flocculation for downstream filtration capture.

HydroFlux is based in Santa Monica, California. The technology is designed for enterprise-scale chilled water and cooling tower systems at airports, hospitals, university campuses, data centers, and large commercial buildings.

- No chemicals required
- No electricity required (passive magnetic system)
- No system shutdown for installation
- 30-year product guarantee
- $2M insurance coverage per installation
- Selected for USGBC Net Zero Accelerator Cohort
