The Downside of Hard Water - The Downside of Hard Water

We are continuing our series of articles discussing some of the indicators and downsides of hard water. Our previous articles covered how the ScaleBlaster ecofriendly water softener alternative is a limescale eliminator that is effective in water scale removal and prevention. Some of the hard water problems an electronic descaling system can resolve include chalky buildup, poor water pressure, dry skin, and faded laundry. Today, we will look at two more reasons you may wish to consider a hard water descaler for your home.

Appliances in Need of Repair or Premature Replacement

When hard water runs through appliances such as dishwashers, clothes washers, coffee machines, etc. the accumulation of calcium and magnesium causes them to essentially “gunk” up, forcing them to work harder than intended.  This often results in the more frequent need for repairs, and eventually premature replacement, of appliances that utilize water. The ScaleBlaster electronic descaling system is a limescale eliminator that prevents new scale from forming, so appliances run more efficiently and are able to perform at optimal levels.

Water Heater Issues

Magnesium and calcium cause limescale that can build up on the heat exchanger of tankless water heaters. This results in poor water pressure and lack of hot water, not to mention higher water and electric bills.  The ScaleBlaster hard water descaler is an ecofriendly water softener alternative that is not only effective in water scale removal, but it prevents new scale from forming, thus allowing water heaters to be more efficient.

If you want to eliminate hard water problems in your home, look no further. The ScaleBlaster electronic descaling system is also a limescale eliminator, making it all you need for water scale removal and the prevention of new scale from forming. This affordable, effective, ecofriendly water softener alternative is easy to install, requires no maintenance and can be purchased at Home Depot or online at Home Depot, Lowe’s, or Costco. We encourage you to pick one up today!

What is Hard Water - What is Hard Water?

Hard water is a result of calcium, magnesium, and trace amounts of other minerals being dissolved in the water. It happens with both well water and city water systems.  The hardness level of your water depends on where you live. If you have city water, your service provider should be able to provide you with the water hardness levels in your area. You can also purchase a hard water testing kit at a hardware store or pool supplies store.

If you have hard water, you may want to consider a limescale eliminator and ecofriendly water softener alternative to address the issues that are caused by water hardness. Hard water has many signs, and there are certain things that may be happening in your home to cue you in on the fact that you have hard water. Our next series of articles will discuss some signs indicating the need for a hard water descaler/electronic descaling system in your home.

Chalky Buildup

If you notice a white, chalk-like buildup on your dishes as they come out of your dishwasher, then you have a problem with hard water. A hard water descaler will help alleviate this issue.

Poor Water Pressure

Hard water causes showers and pipes to get clogged as a result of hard water limescale buildup. This is a primary cause of most poor water pressure issues. An electronic descaling system is a limescale eliminator that can effectively address this issue.

Our next article will cover more signs that you may have a problem with hard water.

ScaleBlaster is the world’s leading ecofriendly water softener alternative.  This electronic descaling system is not only a limescale eliminator that is effective in water scale removal, but it also prevents new scale from forming.  If you have signs of hard water, we can help.

Should I Consider a Reverse Osmosis System When Shopping for Hard Water Treatment Options?

scaleblaster 1200x628 layout354 1gu0vj0 - Should I Consider a Reverse Osmosis System When Shopping for Hard Water Treatment Options?

We are continuing our series discussing a reverse osmosis system as a residential hard water solution.  As we mentioned in previous articles, a reverse osmosis system only makes a few gallons of water a day.  Although it is not suitable for preventing hard water in a residential setting, it can be used to complement an electronic water descaler.  When it comes to hard water treatment options, the ScaleBlaster electronic water descaler is an effective limescale eliminator and prevents new scale from forming. It also does not require ongoing maintenance or have any filters to clean or replace.

If you own a reverse osmosis drinking water system, you will need to clean, sanitize, and recharge it on a regular basis, once a year at a minimum. This is a process that you will either need to hire a professional to perform or do yourself. If you plan to do it yourself, you will need to consult your owner’s manual, but in a nutshell, the process will involve ensuring the surrounding area is clean and free of dirt and dust, completely shutting off the main water valve, and removing the water from the faucet on your reverse osmosis system (many models are equipped with an air gap faucet.) You will then need to remove all of the filters and membrane from their housings and pour either hydrogen peroxide, unscented bleach, or designated sanitizer into the pre-filter housing and cycle the system with water.

Each reverse osmosis system is different, so as we mentioned earlier, this is just a brief overview to give you an idea of what the process entails. You will need to consult your owner’s manual for instructions specific to your unit.

Bottom line, an electronic water descaler is effective at water scale removal / pipe scale removal and prevents new scale from forming.  It is one of the most affordable hard water treatment options on the market and is the one residential hard water solution that requires no ongoing maintenance. The ScaleBlaster electronic water descaler is available at Home Depot (in-store and online) and online at Lowe’s and Costco.  We invite you to give it a try today!

Is A Reverse Osmosis System A Favorable Residential Hard Water Solution - Is A Reverse Osmosis System A Favorable Residential Hard Water Solution?

We are continuing our series discussing whether or not a reverse osmosis system is a good residential hard water solution.  Our previous article acknowledged that a reverse osmosis system is effective in improving the quality and taste of drinking water. However, it has some performance issues when it comes to removing elements that cause hard water. And, since a reverse osmosis drinking water system only makes a few gallons of water per day, it is not suitable for preventing hard water in a residential setting.

A reverse osmosis drinking water system also requires ongoing maintenance that is not only time consuming but can become very costly. In addition to the system needing to be installed by a professional who has experience with how to implement and test a whole home system, there are numerous filters and a membrane that needs monitored and replaced at different intervals. We have previous articles that cover this in detail, but here is a brief rundown:

Sediment Filter – Catches sediment before it contaminates and clogs the membrane, needs to be replaced at least once a year.

Carbon Filter – Filters out contaminants to improve the taste of your water, needs to be replaced at least every six months.

Polishing Filters – Another filter that helps ensure the water has a pleasing taste and no foul odors, usually needs to be replaced at least once a year.

Membrane – The most expensive of all filters that filters out contaminants not caught by the other filters, usually needs to be replaced at least every two years.

The ScaleBlaster electronic water descaler is one of the most desired hard water treatment options on the market because it is the one residential hard water solution that is both effective and affordable.  In addition to preventing new scale from forming, it is also a limescale eliminator that is effective in pipe scale removal / water scale removal. If you have been comparing hard water treatment options and are ready to invest in a residential hard water solution, then we invite you to give ScaleBlaster a try.  Your satisfaction is guaranteed!  It can be purchased at Home Depot (in-store and online) and online at Lowe’s and Costco.  We invite you to give it a try today!

A Good Residential Hard Water Solution?

scaleblaster 1200x628 layout1647 1gsuus0 - Is A Reverse Osmosis System A Good Residential Hard Water Solution?

We are often asked if a reverse osmosis drinking water system is an effective residential hard water solution.  A reverse osmosis drinking water system only makes a few gallons of water per day so it is not suitable for preventing hard water in a residential setting. Our next series of articles will take a deep dive into additional aspects about a reverse osmosis system. Today, we will discuss its performance.

A reverse osmosis system uses a complex filtration process to remove chemicals to improve the taste and quality of drinking water.  However, the membranes and filters it uses are very fragile and often have a difficult time removing the calcium and magnesium that cause hard water. Homeowners specifically seeking hard water treatment options should consider a residential hard water solution that is effective in addressing the root of the problem.

An electronic water descaler produces an oscillating electronic field that changes the physical size, shape and charge of calcium molecules so that they are not able to produce lime scale. Not only is an electronic water descaler a limescale eliminator that is effective in water scale removal / pipe scale removal but it also prevents new scale from forming.

Our next articles will discuss the maintenance, cleaning, and sanitizing requirements of a reverse osmosis system.

If you have hard water, then the ScaleBlaster electronic water descaler is what is going to be effective in combating the problems that go along with it. This doesn’t mean you cannot have both an electronic water descaler and a reverse osmosis drinking water system because you can and many people do. However, if you want a limescale eliminator that is effective in removing existing scale and preventing new scale from forming, then an electronic water descaler should be considered. A small investment in the ScaleBlaster residential hard water solution will go a long way towards improving the quality of your water.  It can be purchased at Home Depot (in-store and online) and online at Lowe’s and Costco.  Give it a try today!

Maintaining Water Softeners - Maintaining Water Softeners vs. An Electronic Water Descaler

There are many differences between a water softener and an electronic water descaler.  Previous articles covered the costs involved with a water softener.  An electronic water descaler has an advantage over water softeners and other hard water treatment options because it is also a limescale eliminator which is effective in pipe scale removal/water scale removal. Our next series of articles will cover more differences between a water softener and an electronic water descaler, specifically when it comes to maintenance.  Let’s get started:

Resin Tank

If you choose a water softener as your residential hard water solution, expect to clean its resin tank at least every six months or more if your tank accumulates a lot of excess grime, gunk and other buildup.  Additionally, you may need to replace the resin on occasion, especially if the system is exposed to chlorinated water. An electronic water descaler does not use resin and is one of the few hard water treatment options that does not require any maintenance.

Brine Tank

Water softeners have a brine tank that needs to be cleaned on a regular basis.  This is generally performed during a time when the salt is low. You will need to first drain the brine tank and remove the salt grid.  You can then proceed with cleaning, being sure to remove any sediment, sludge, or salt that is in the tank and then scrubbing/washing it with dishwasher detergent.  An electronic water descaler is a residential hard water solution that has no tank to clean, thus requiring no ongoing maintenance.

Our next article will discuss more differences between the maintenance of a water softener and electronic water descaler.

If you are seeking an affordable, efficient, and effective residential hard water solution, then we invite you to consider ScaleBlaster.  In fact, it is one of the most popular hard water treatment options on the market today.  Don’t settle for costly alternatives.  ScaleBlaster can be purchased at Home Depot (in-store and online) and online at Lowe’s and Costco.

Have a Hard Water Problem - How Do I Know If I Have a Hard Water Problem?

The ScaleBlaster electronic water descaler prevents calcium carbonate from adhering to pipes and fixtures, thus keeping new scale from forming. ScaleBlaster is an effective lime scale remover as well.

Appliances Not Working Efficiently

Lime scale buildup can cause appliances that come into contact with water (i.e. washer, dishwasher, coffee maker, etc.) to be less efficient.  Less efficient appliances have to work harder and often require more electricity to operate.
