Anti-Scale Systems
An Anti-Scale System helps protect your water heater from scale build up. The following three systems are popular choices that are effective at limiting scale build-up. Each system works differently but the end result is to keep Calcium and Magnesium particles suspended in the water rather than precipitating out as hard water scale.
Flow-Tech Max
Sends a low frequency signal into the water and throughout entire plumbing network to neutralize the magnesium and calcium ions in hard water, allowing them to stay in your water and go out with the flow-instead of sticking to your pipes and appliances.
-Maintenance free
-Protects 24/7
-Protects both the hot as well as the cold
-Power outlet required
-3 Year Manufacturer Limited Warranty
Halo Ion
The Halo Ion uses multi-reversing polarity permanent magnetic fields to affect the “ionic charge identity” of the CaCo3 and MgCo3 so that they remain suspended in the water rather than precipitate out as hard water scale.
-Maintenance free
-Conditioned effect lasts about 12 hours
-No power outlet needed
-25 Year Manufacturer Limited Warranty
Aqua-Pure AP430SS
The 3M™ AP430SS Whole House Scale Inhibition Water Treatment System contains polyphosphates to bind calcium and magnesium hardness minerals, preventing them from precipitating out (or becoming a solid) and building up on metallic surfaces such as water heaters and plumbing fixtures like faucets, pipes and shower heads. Polyphosphates also helps prevent corrosion by forming a thin protective layer on the metal surface. Manufactured using FDA CFR-21 compliant materials and is suitable for drinking, cooking water, and food applications.
-Requires cartridge replacement every 6 months or sooner
-No power outlet needed
-25 Year Manufacturer Limited Warranty on Head
