What Is Limescale & How Do Get Rid Of Limescale?

WHAT IS LIMESCALE HOW DO GET RID OF LIMESCALE?
How to prevent scale and where it originates from.

WHAT IS LIMESCALE AND HOW DOES IT LOOK LIKE?
Scale is a deposit of a white, chalk-like
substance which is often referred to as limescale
that develops when water accumulates or is
dispensed. When water is heated or in water-using
appliances that heat water, scale is a common
issue. Check your faucets, tubs, sinks, shower
head, shower curtain, and shower glass doors.
Scale formation in most cases is inevitable. In
spite of the fact that you cant see inside your
water pipes, scale is probably forming there and
would build a uniform scale inside your pipes and
externally in your homes. Does not matter if you
are using city water or well water, your home may
be affected by scale.

WHAT CAUSES SCALE?
Minerals are dissolved by water as it
passes through the earth. The main causes
of water hardness, calcium and magnesium, are
present in the majority of water supplies. The
calcium and magnesium in the water can be seen as
scale, which forms when water evaporates.
Scale can accumulate over time, become
unattractive, and cause issues in water-using
locations around your home, particularly hot
water. Scale can sometimes seriously harm
plumbing, fixtures, and other items that
use water, necessitating expensive repairs or
even replacement.

WATER PROBLEMS CAUSED BY SCALE/CORROSION SCALE
BUILD-UP IN WATER PIPES CORROSION
Your homes water pipes may have significant
limescale buildup if you have hard water. The
flow rate of the water is significantly
decreased as the scale accumulates in
the pipes. You might need to replace your water
pipes if the scale accumulation is severe
enough, which is both expensive and annoying.

APPLIANCES DETERIORATION
Scale can cause harm to many water equipments
when it accumulates over time. Scale
accumulation decreases appliance performance,
lifetime, and efficiency, increasing your costs
for maintenance, repairs, and early
replacement. The typical home appliances
that are vulnerable to scale damage are listed
below. Water Heater Whether you have an
electric or gas water heater, limescale can
accumulate over time on the heating
element, lengthening the time and energy needed
to heat the water. In essence, the device is
inefficient and wasteful because it must first
heat the scale before heating the water. Scale
can also develop all over the tanks inside.
Scale ultimately shortens the longevity,
efficacy, and efficiency of water heaters.

Dishwasher Scale development from hard
water affects your dishwasher as well. After
your dishwasher has finished running, you could
have seen a white, chalky residue within. The
scale is probably being formed when the hot hard
water cools. Dishes and silverware both exhibit
similar issues. These blotches and streaks
are obvious evidence of the reaction between
the hard water and the high temperatures
and detergents. Washing Machine Scale building
has an impact on how well laundry is done. On
washing machine parts that come into touch with
water, the scale will build up and decrease
the machines performance and efficiency. In
addition, the minerals in hard water prevent
detergents from cleaning well, which is why
garments washed in hard water frequently turn
out dull. Fabrics frequently include minerals
from hard water and detergent residue, which
makes them deteriorate more quickly.

Water Kettles Coffee Machines Limescale
harms several smaller water-using gadgets,
including coffee makers and tea kettles. Scale
causes the appliance to work harder as it
accumulates. Utilizing filtered water will
enhance the flavor of your beverages while also
having a significant impact on the
performance and durability of these
appliances.

SHOWER, SINKS SURFACES
On shower doors, sinks, tubs, and other places
where a lot of water is used, especially warm
water, you could occasionally see white patches
or a white film. These stains are brought on by
hardness minerals that are left behind after
water evaporates, just as the stains on
glassware. When water drains, soap scum or film
frequently develops around the tub, in the sink,
or in the shower. Hard water and soap mix to
create a soap curd that is difficult to
remove off surfaces as well as your skin and
hair that does not easily rinse away. SCALE MAY
SOMETIMES SERIOUSLY HARM PLUMBING, FIXTURES,
AND OTHER ITEMS THAT UTILIZE WATER,
NECESSITATING EXPENSIVE REPAIRS OR EVEN
REPLACEMENT

LIMESCALE PREVENTION TREATMENT SOLUTION FOR
LIMESCALE
The good news is that there are various efficient
ways to get rid of scale accumulation in your
house, including salt- free and salt-based water
softening techniques. A recent development in
water treatment technology, salt- free water
conditioner prevents water scale without the
use of salt (Sodium Chloride) or harsh chemicals.
The best salt-free scale prevention with
FILTERSORB SP3 prevents all types of scale
formation and prolongs water pipes, heaters,
and plumbing fixtures. The environmentally
friendly technology known as Nucleation
Assisted Crystallization (NAC) efficiently
neutralizes the characteristics of hard
water without the usage of electricity,
backwashing, or regeneration with salt (Sodium
Chloride).
11
Calcium and magnesium in water are
instantly attracted to the catalytic surface
of FILTERSORB SP3 beads which transforms Calcium
and Magnesium scale into a scale-resistant
crystalline form (CaCO3 micro-crystals) that
wont attach to surfaces. FILTERSORB SP3
Sale-Free technology (NAC) is a healthier
alternative to conventional water softening
methods since there are no maintenance or energy
and is 100 salt-free!
12
Traditional water softener which requires salt is
slowly being reduced due to the increase of
regulations for brine waste waster which imposes
ecological problems and constant maintenance
cost. Simple scale prevention technology with
Filtersorb-SP3 adds no salt or chemical and is
100 Environmentally friendly technology! On
top of eco-friendly technology, Filtersorb-SP3
is certified by Water Quality Association
(WQA) to NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 Drinking water standards
NSF/ANSI 372 Lead-free materials.
