FAQs

How often do I need to replace the Siliphos balls?

The balls typically need replacement every 6 to 12 months, but this depends on water usage and hardness. Check your system's manual for specific recommendations.

Can I use these balls in any water system?

No, these are designed for compatible inline scale reducing units, such as the Cistermiser Combimate.

What happens if I use too many Siliphos balls?

Using too many balls can potentially restrict water flow. Always follow the manufacturer's recommended amount for your system.

Are these balls safe for drinking water?

Yes, Siliphos is approved for use in potable water systems. However, always ensure your system is properly maintained.

Where can I buy replacement Siliphos balls?

Replacement balls are available from various retailers, including plumbing supply stores and online marketplaces.

How do I know if the Siliphos balls are working?

You may notice a reduction in scale buildup in appliances and plumbing fixtures. Regular inspection and maintenance are important.

Troubleshooting

Reduced water flow after refill.

Check if the refill balls are blocking the inlet or outlet. Ensure they are evenly distributed and not clumped together. If the problem persists, consult your system's manual.

Scale buildup still occurring.

Check the water hardness and flow rate to ensure the Siliphos balls are adequate for your needs. Consider increasing the frequency of ball replacement or consulting a water treatment specialist for more aggressive solutions.

Leaks after refilling.

Ensure the O-ring is properly seated and the unit is securely closed. Tighten connections if necessary and check for any cracks or damage in the unit itself.

Pros and Cons

  • Provides an economic and reliable water treatment solution.
  • Crystal sphere form ensures even distribution and consistent performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Compatibility: Ensure your inline water system is compatible with Siliphos refill balls, specifically designed for use with the Cistermiser Combimate and similar units. Verify the unit's specifications to confirm compatibility.
  2. Refilling: Turn off the water supply to the unit. Open the unit according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually by unscrewing or unlatching a compartment.
  3. Replacement: Remove the old Siliphos balls. Clean the compartment, and replace them with the new 800g refill pack balls, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
  4. O-Ring: Ensure the O-ring is correctly positioned to create a tight seal, if applicable. Close the unit securely.
  5. Water Supply: Slowly turn the water supply back on and check for leaks. The unit should now be operational, providing scale reduction.

*Care*: Regularly inspect the unit for any leaks or damage. Replace the Siliphos balls as recommended by the manufacturer (typically every 6 months to a year, depending on water usage and hardness) to maintain optimal performance.
