FAQs

How does this electronic scale inhibitor work?

It uses variable low radio frequency waves generated by the electronic unit, transmitted through wires wrapped around your pipe. These waves alter the properties of dissolved minerals, preventing them from forming hard limescale deposits.

What size pipes can this device be used on?

The wires are designed to wrap around pipe sizes ranging from 15mm to 42mm in diameter.

Does it require any chemicals?

No, this is a chemical-free solution. It relies on electronic wave technology.

How long does it take to see results?

Results can vary depending on your water hardness and existing scale. It typically takes several weeks to notice a significant reduction in new scale formation.

Is it difficult to install?

No, it is designed for DIY installation. It involves wrapping wires around the pipe and plugging the unit into a power source. No plumbing modifications are needed.

What maintenance is required?

The device requires very little maintenance. Periodically wipe the unit clean with a dry cloth and ensure the power connection is secure.

Will it remove existing scale?

This device is primarily designed to prevent new scale formation. While it may help to slow down the buildup of existing scale, it is not intended as a descaler for heavily scaled pipes.

Troubleshooting

Unit not powering on

Check that the power adapter is securely plugged into both the unit and a working electrical outlet. Verify the outlet is functional by testing with another appliance.

No noticeable reduction in scale

Ensure the wires are wrapped tightly around the pipe and are not loose. Confirm the wire placement is on the main water inlet pipe. Allow several weeks for effects to become noticeable, as mineral structures change gradually.

Device making unusual noises

Unplug the device immediately and contact customer support. This may indicate an internal issue.

Wires feel loose after installation

Re-wrap the wires ensuring they are taut against the pipe. Use the provided screws or mounting tape if necessary to secure them in place.
