System Benefits:

• Prevents Calcium Deposits
  The anti-scaling device works to suspend the calcium in the water as it passes through, causing the scale not to stick to pipes or appliances. This extends the life of water heaters, reverse osmosis systems, ice makers, dishwashers, shower heads, and all other appliances utilizing water in the home or business.
• Removes Existing Scale
  The existing scale deposits in your plumbing, water heater, and fixtures are conditioned and eventually flushed out. This causes all plumbing, fixtures, and appliances to perform more efficiently.
• Requires No Chemicals
  The anti-scaling device requires no chemicals or salt. When compared to softeners the antiscaling device will save you equipment, salt, space, and maintenance costs. It also never stops working for you!
• Will Not Drastically Change the Water’s Feel or Taste
  Soap rinses off clean and easy without any persistent residue. It does not add a salty or metallic taste to the water either.

How it Works

Hard water entering the anti-scaling device inlet flows across the catalyst element. The surface of the catalyst element consists of millions of bi- and tri-metallic junctions similar in geometry to calcium carbonate, the dissolved mineral that makes hard water. Through a phenomenon called lattice matching, minerals attach to each other and form crystals. Minerals in solution can also be made to attach to other surfaces with similar lattice patterns. Calcium carbonate collects onto these catalyst element junctions. These deposits form microscopic crystals that are less stable, but still attractive to the calcium carbonate still in solution.

This process is called nucleation and is familiar to those scientists who work in the area of semiconductors, physical chemistry, and metallurgy. These crystals grow to a size believed to be between .0000004" and .000004", which is too small to be seen with an optical microscope, before they are flushed off the catalyst surface due to combination of crystal instability and the shearing force of the flowing water. Billions of these calcium carbonate crystals, or calcite "seeds" are now in the treated water exiting the Anti-Scaling device.

These billions of calcite "seeds" appear to be more attractive to dissolved calcium carbonate than those surfaces that do not closely match their geometry, so the surface of the pipes and those devices using the water lose their tendency to build scale. In addition, since these "seeds" also seem to be slightly more attractive to calcium carbonate than the rectangular structure of normal hard scale, over a period of time, calcium carbonate that has already been deposited as hard scale should slowly be drawn to the "seeds" and then removed with water. Since the calcium carbonate in the treated water is not actually removed; only “converted”, the treated water that dries on a surface might leave a small amount of calcium carbonate residue. However, this powder does not strongly attach to the surface and, if visible, can be easily wiped off. Beneficial mineral content is not lost.
