How does the anti-scaling media function?
We use a catalyst-based media with molecular patterns on its surface on which, depending upon the calcium and magnesium carbonate content of the water, calcite crystals grow. When the crystals reach a size in the range of nano-meters they detach and are carried away by the water flow. These calcite crystals are heat resistant and can no longer cause lime deposits. The treated water coming out of the unit is also able to remove existing scale. Depending on the thickness of the existing scale it will take some weeks to remove it 100 %. But after this the pipe system and the heat exchanger surfaces will be absolutely clean. Within the Scale Prevention Unit water hardness is transformed into firm lime crystals and not removed. The crystals are transformed out of solution. The crystal cannot attach to pipes or appliances. There is no need for regeneration of the bed because the system works like a catalyst (the media is not used up in the process). The Unit does not use salt and therefore d
