Do you have a problem with hard water?

If you live in a hard water area of which up to 80 percent of the country is, you will suffer the effects in your home. You will see scale in your kettle and around the taps and bathroom fittings, also around the kitchen sink and even tea stains around the waste. Did you know you can’t stain Stainless Steel with tea? It’s the scale on the surface of the sink that’s been stained! What you won’t see though is the scale in the pipe work around your home, blocking and restricting the flow to your taps. The scale builds up on the heat exchanger inside your hot water cylinder or ‘Boiler’, preventing the transfer of heat through to your water.

What can you do about hard water?

Did you know the average scale buildup on the heat exchanger is 3/16 to 1/4 of an inch? That’s a loss of efficiency of around 40%! That’s 40p in every £ you spend heating your water through scale, wasted! It then flakes off and gradually fills the tank with scale debris, reducing the capacity for the storage of hot water, causing a delay between the ability to fill a bath and of  course, increasing the cost again! By installing a water softener in your home, it will remove all the scale around your home naturally, including the hidden damage. No acids or chemicals involved!  Kettles will descale in about 6 weeks, in your central heating system the heat exchanger will take about six months & pipe work throughout the home will clear in a couple of years.
