This is what your pipes could look like if you live in a hard water area and suffer from limescale!

Hard Water harms the environment via in-efficient water heating and chemcial to combat limescale.

Scale Manager 2 is the most advanced electronic water descaler on the market.

Water Descalers: Scale Manager 2 is the industry’s top performing electronic water descaler (also known as a water conditioner). It has a life time warrantee and also carries a 6-month no risk money back guarantee. Scale Manager 2 should not be compared to any other similar device available that are mostly called water conditioners or water softeners. Scale Manager 2 is the only water descaler that harnesses 2 systems of treatment to ensure complete limescale eradication, designed to treat all types of hard water in all domestic situations. Scale Manager 2 is the maintenance free solution to hard water problems; removing existing limescale and preventing further build-up without the need for chemicals, salts, alteration to plumbing, or a separate drinking water supply, unlike a water softener. The Scale Manager 2 effect does not alter the waters chemical composition, but achieves the many advantages of limescale free water. Scale Manager 2 costs as little as £1.30 a year to run, unlike water softeners that cost between £50 - £150.

Water Conditioners: As mentioned above water conditioners are similar to a water descaler. However, many water conditioners have a single R.F output that changes frequency very slowly; therefore not treating all of the water with all of the known frequencies all of the time. We prefer to call Scale Manager 2 a water descaler as apposed to a water conditioner, as it is exactly what Scale Manager does – descales the whole property.

Water Softeners: Traditional water softeners work by changing the very composition of the hard water through 'ion-exchange'. This process results in a low-level introduction of sodium (salt) into the water. For an impartial view the softener process, take a look at the British Heart Foundation's (BHF) article on water softeners and their affects. The cost of Water Softeners, dependent on size, is generally between £650 and £1,500. Water Softeners are relatively expensive to install, requiring plumbing modifications - the salts used in water softeners will cost between £50 and £150 per year - the water is not suitable for babies and some adults to consume - a separate drinking water supply is essential and the effluent water is environmentally unfriendly - unlike a Water Descaler or Water Conditioner. Compared to a descaler a water softener is far larger and requires a lot more space. Also the salts used in water softeners are bulky and need storage space. Some water softeners are difficult to fill with salt, particularly when in a confined space.

Magnets, Catalytic & Ionisation Devices: These are only partially effective as they are not usually able to remove existing limescale and generally are not suitable for long term whole house application.

How does it work? There are two technologies employed to produce the magnetic charge that Scale Manager 2 delivers so effectively - Radio Frequency (RF) and Direct Inductive Coupling (DIC). The two systems are modulated onto independent antennas, allowing greater fitting versatility and increased outputs, in excess of two ordinary water descalers or conditioners.

Most water conditioners have a square-wave output and change frequency very slowly in steps (not covering all frequencies known to treat scale). Scale Manager 2’s outputs are digitally produced sine-wave, ensuring greater frequency coverage. Most brands of water conditioners translate the outputs of their products in terms of pulses, Scale Manager 2 delivers an unparalleled 13000 magnetic pulses per second, covering all the known frequency’s to reduce limescale. It is this action that neutralises the calcium carbonate’s ability to adhere. Both RF and DIC systems are produced via the very powerful PIC 16 microprocessor that has a proven accuracy and reliability record.

As the treated water flows through your plumbing system it will reverse the limescale forming process and disintegrate the build-up already present, the process starts immediately Scale Manager 2 is installed. It may take several months to eradicate limescale where heavy deposits are to be found. However, the beneficial effects will be observed usually within 2-10 days or so - see benefits when? The reason for a delay is the unconditioned stored water takes some time to be totally replaced with conditioned water. Read how the Water Descaler actually works.

Scale Manager 2 is a belt and braces product. Designed and manufactured in the UK by Waltham Electronics up to the highest of standards, not down to a price. Our unique no quibble replacement guarantee is for life.

Others may well have attempted to follow where Waltham Electronics has led, but Scale Manager 2 has set the benchmark for all descalers, water conditioners and water softeners to strive towards.

Hard Water: Hard water in simple terms is caused by rainwater passing through chalk and/or limestone, where it collects deposits of mineral salts. The principal salt contributing to hard water is calcium bicarbonate (CaHCo3).

The calcium bicarbonate is in a solution form, but precipitates out into calcium carbonate (CaCo3), which is a sub-microscopic, insoluble molecule. The molecules are attracted to each other, and adhere to the wall of pipes, etc, creating limescale deposits.To get a mental picture of this process, simply bring to mind the stalagmites and stalactites found in caves. The calcium carbonate content of limescale exceeds 98%, therefore if the sub-microscopic molecules can be made to reject instead of attract, limescale cannot form.

Limescale: Whilst limescale itself is not considered a health hazard, hard water has been known to exasperate eczema and irritate those with sensitive skin conditions. It has been noted by medical authorities that the mineral content of hard water is beneficial. Most water softeners rely on removing these minerals, thereby removing any associated benefit, but Scale Manager 2 retains the calcium in the water. For a more in-depth explanation, read how the Scale Manager 2 electronic water descaler actually works.

The higher the temperature, the more limescale will form. Therefore limescale build-up will be greater in the hot water system, particularly immersion heaters and boilers. See our savings page to work out how much money you could save with Scale Manager 2, and of the environmental reasons for doing so.

Limescale in your water heating system translates into lower heat transfer. Heating your water through limescale takes longer, this means your water heating costs will keep rising as the scale increases. Limescale build-up also dramatically reduces the life and increases maintenance costs of appliances such as, washing machines, dishwashers and your water heating system. Combination boilers are particularly susceptible to limescale as well as the problems above, it can cause poor hot water flow and noise/kettleing within the boiler - it is strongly recommended in hard water areas that a descaler or water softener be fitted.

Most of us are familiar with the problems related to hard water, however there is also a plus side. It is now medically accepted that hard water reduces the risk of heart disease and the high calcium content is also beneficial for healthy bones and teeth, particularly in growing children.

Scale Manager 2 does not alter the chemical composition of your water; therefore the health benefits of consuming hard water are retained - unlike a water softener.
