The Facts About Water DescalersWater 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. 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. 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.
