◆Background of the Introduction of NMR Pipe Protectors at Buckingham Palace In addition to the Queen's private rooms, the palace includes offices, meeting rooms, the administrative headquarters of the royal household, a museum, and a ballroom, serving as a venue for official duties and accommodations for foreign leaders. Therefore, the presence of red water from the British royal palace's bathrooms and toilets is certainly not something that reflects well on the monarchy. The impetus for Buckingham Palace to introduce NMR pipe protectors came from Harrods, a long-established department store that is a royal warrant holder. In March 2006, NMR pipe protectors were urgently introduced as a countermeasure against red water, and within 1.5 months, the occurrence of red water was completely halted. Following this result, Harrods' executives introduced NMR pipe protectors to Windsor Castle, which was also facing issues with red rust. In November 2006, NMR pipe protectors were installed in the Queen's Tower, where Her Majesty the Queen stayed every weekend, and the reddish-brown water transformed into clear water after 42 days, concluding the verification. As a result of this, NMR pipe protectors were introduced at Buckingham Palace, which was also experiencing red rust issues. Next time, I will discuss the results of the introduced NMR pipe protectors!
