SCALE BLOCK WHOLE HOUSE SCALE INHIBITORS
Salt-Free Water Softener Alternative
As a reliable, salt-free alternative to a water softener these scale block systems provide a ‘fit-and-forget’ solution to preventing limescale build-up in your pipework, boiler and appliances. Much like a water softener, they work to clear existing limescale deposits over time – requiring very little maintenance thanks to a lifespan of up to 3 years for whole-house applications or 1 year for point-of-use (such as feeding a single tap). After this period the filter cartridge can be easily changed, with replacement cartridges costing less on average than running a traditional water softener.
How Does The Scale Block Work?
These scale inhibitors work using TAC technology, where limescale-forming molecules such as calcium and magnesium are stuck together to form inactive crystals which are no longer able to form a hard scale. The chemistry of your water remains unchanged, meaning you can enjoy mineral-rich drinking water without the associated problems of hard water. This technology is the first effective salt and chemical-free limescale prevention method, independently tested to be 99.6% as effective as a water softener at preventing limescale build-up on heating elements.
How Long Does The Filter Cartridge Last?
For single appliance systems (SB10-SL) the cartridge should be replaced annually. For larger systems (SB10-BB & SB20-BB) the cartridge needs to be replaced every 2-3 years. There will be signs that the cartridge needs replacing such as scale formation on taps or shower heads.
Please note if new copper pipework is used on the feed then the system needs to be passivized for a minimum of 4 weeks before installation
