Industrial Hard Water Descaling Solution - Why Wastewater Operations Need a Reliable Industrial Hard Water Descaling Solution

We are continuing our series of articles on why wastewater operations need a reliable industrial hard water descaling solution. Our previous articles covered how an electronic descaling system is beneficial in lime and soda ash treatment, can prevent resin bed calcification, reduces polymer usage, benefits effluent systems, and prevents scale on pumps.  Today, we will look at more reasons why wastewater operations need a dependable industrial hard water descaler.

Protects Sensors & Instruments

Limescale can build anywhere, and control valves, probes, and sensors are no exception. An electronic descaling system will act as a limescale eliminator, performing existing water scale removal and preventing new scale from forming, thus ensuring none of the instrumentation is disrupted or damaged as a result of limescale.

Improves Efficiency of Mixing Tanks

Lime / soda ash is mixed with water to form a slurry and is then pumped into the water for treatment. The mixing is performed in a large mixing tank. The tank, as well as the mixing propeller, are prone to scale buildup. An industrial hard water descaler prevents limescale from forming inside the mixing tank or on the propeller.

ScaleBlaster has been a preferred industrial hard water descaling solution for more than three decades.  In fact, it is arguably the most trusted residential, commercial, and industrial electronic descaling system on the market today. It is affordable, has a proven track record, and is an ecofriendly water softener alternative.

We are continuing our series of articles highlighting some of the benefits of utilizing an industrial hard water descaler in a wastewater plant. Our previous articles covered the benefits it brings to the treatment of lime and soda ash, how it prevents resin bed calcification, and the fact that it reduces polymer usage. Today, we will look are more reasons why wastewater plants need a dependable industrial hard water descaling solution.

Effluent System Benefits

Heavy concentrations of calcium carbonate cause limescale that clogs the discharge line.  An industrial hard water descaler is a limescale eliminator that not only performs existing water scale removal, but prevents new scale from forming, thus keeping effluent system discharge lines free from limescale.

Prevent Scale on Pumps

Pumps are prone to limescale, especially chlorine injection pumps that emit chlorine into the treatment stream. An industrial hard water descaling solution such as ScaleBlaster will help keep pumps clean and operational.

Our next article will take a closer look at reasons why wastewater operations should implement an ecofriendly water softener alternative such as the ScaleBlaster electronic descaling system.

I Want to Consider an Ecofriendly Water Softener Alternative - I Want to Consider an Ecofriendly Water Softener Alternative

We are continuing our series of articles exploring the downsides of water softeners. Our previous articles discussed how water softeners involve a large initial investment, require professional installation, take up valuable floor space, increase water bills, are not eco-friendly, and require expensive, time consuming ongoing maintenance.  Today, we will look at more downsides to water softeners and reasons to consider an ecofriendly water softener alternative.

Not Ideal for Individuals on Salt-Restrictive Diets

Water treated with water softeners is high in sodium, making it less than ideal for individuals on salt-restrictive diets and/or those who are watching their sodium levels. Water with higher sodium levels is also not ideal for family pets to consume. A hard water descaler such as ScaleBlaster does not add salt or chemicals to the water.

Makes Soap Difficult to Remove

Water softeners make it more difficult for water to remove soap from skin and laundry. This is why your skin often feels somewhat slippery after bathing or showering with soft water. When you use a hard water descaler such as ScaleBlaster, you will notice the water feels silkier, your skin feels softer, and soap easily washes away.

ScaleBlaster is a trusted, ecofriendly water softener alternative that has been installed in thousands of homes, commercial buildings, and industrial operations worldwide. Not only is ScaleBlaster a hard water descaler that prevents new scale from forming, but it is also a limescale eliminator that is proven effective in water scale removal. If you want an affordable, reliable hard water descaler, then we encourage you to give the ScaleBlaster electronic descaling system a try.

Disadvantages of Water Softeners - Disadvantages of Water Softeners

When searching for a solution for hard water problems, water softeners are what most frequently come to mind. However, water softeners are not always the best option, for numerous reasons. We are continuing our series discussing the downside of water softeners. Our previous articles covered the fact that purchasing a water softener is expensive, requires professional installation, takes up floor space, and increases water bills. Today, we will look at more of the disadvantages of choosing a water softener over an electronic descaling system.

Not Eco-Friendly

Water softeners are not environmentally friendly, period.  In addition to utilizing extra water as we discussed in our previous article, they also require salt and discharge chlorides into the waste stream. On the contrary, an electronic descaling system does not require any chemicals and does not discharge anything into the water stream, making it an ecofriendly water softener alternative.

Requires Ongoing Maintenance

A water softener requires a lot of ongoing maintenance. In addition to purchasing salt and resin on a regular basis, owners of water softeners must inspect the system, clean and adjust valves, and sanitize the resin and water tanks.  The beauty of the ScaleBlaster electronic descaling system is that it’s an ecofriendly water softener alternative that requires no ongoing maintenance.

Our next article will explore more disadvantages of water softeners.

If you are seeking an ecofriendly water softener alternative, then the ScaleBlaster electronic descaling system is something to seriously consider. Not only it is a hard water descaler that prevents new scale from forming, but it also is a limescale eliminator that is effective in water scale removal. In otherwards, it addresses existing scale as well!  Homeowners can purchase the ScaleBlaster residential hard water descaler online or in-store at Home Depot. It can also be purchased online at Lowes and Costco.

The Downside of Water Softeners - The Downside of Water Softeners

As we’ve discussed in a previous article, we have had homeowners tell us that their plumbing professional recommends a water softener instead of an electronic descaling system. We beg to differ, and we have dedicated the past four decades towards helping both homeowners and professionals deal with their hard water issues.

The ScaleBlaster electronic descaling system is a hard water descaler that is effective in water scale removal. It is also a limescale eliminator that prevents new scale from forming. The ScaleBlaster hard water descaler comes in residential and commercial models.

Our next series of article will take a closer look at some of the downsides of water softeners. Let’s get started.

Large Investment

Water softeners cost thousands of dollars and require an ongoing investment in both maintenance and chemicals. The ScaleBlaster residential hard water descaler and industrial hard water descaler models are not only affordable, but they do not require an ongoing investment and they save money in the long run.

Requires Professional Installation

Water softeners can cost hundreds of dollars in professional installation fees.

My Plumber Said I Need to Get a Water Softener - My Plumber Said I Need to Get a Water Softener

“My plumber told me I needed to get a water softener instead of an electronic descaling system.” Ahh, yes. We hear this often. There are two primary reasons why homeowners are advised as such by their plumbing professional. It could be that their plumber is simply not familiar with how an electronic descaling system works. Or, it could be that their plumber gets a commission on each referral for a water softener system and/or on each one they install.

If your plumber recommends a water softener instead of an electronic water descaler, don’t hesitate to ask them why.  You may even wish to bring up some of the benefits of an electronic descaling system such as the fact that it is a limescale eliminator that is effective in water scale removal and prevents new scale from forming. An electronic water descaler is also an ecofriendly water softener alternative.

Would you like to learn more about the differences between an electronic descaling system and a water softener? Our next series of articles will discuss some of the downsides of water softeners. If your plumber wishes to learn more about the ScaleBlaster electronic water descaler, or would like to inquire about how to become one of our professional dealers or wholesalers, we encourage them to give us a call or send us an e-mail at sales@scaleblaster.com.

Five Star Review from Homedepot.com:

I am a real estate appraiser and have seen this product in a few homes. Each time, the homeowner has spoken positively of it. When my softener was beginning to show signs (not going through the volume of salt like it usually does) of slowing down/age/malfunction and the water was feeling a harder, I decided to pick this up and give it a try. My wife, my daughter and I all have all noticed an immediate improvement in the water. Now 2 weeks later, the water feels as good as it ever has! I installed it right after the meter and it took about an hour to install. The hardest part was counting the number of “wraps” around the pipe. So far so good, we would certainly recommend the ScaleBlaster to a friend or neighbor with hard water.

How Can I Test My Home for Hard Water?

Test Hard Water - How Can I Test My Home for Hard Water?

The hardness of your water can determine what issues you may be presented with in the future. Fortunately, a hard water descaler is an effective limescale eliminator that also prevents new scale from forming, so even if you have extremely hard water, you can easily resolve the problems it may be causing or will cause soon. In fact, the ScaleBlaster electronic descaling system is one of the most effective water scale removal and prevention solutions on the market today. Even if your water is only slightly hard, you can benefit from having a hard water descaler for your home. Let’s look at some ways to determine if you have hard water:

Test Strips

Hard water test strip kits can be purchased at most hardware and/or home improvement stores. Simply dip the strip into a sample of your water. The strip will change color, which you can then match per the kit instructions to indicate the level of hard water.

Water Reports

Your county or city will generally have readily available reports on the quality of water in your area. Some municipalities even post them online. If you are unable to locate them online, then contact the municipality that supplies your water and request the report.

The Bottle Test

If you want a quick and easy way to test your home for hard water, then you can always count on the old standard – the bottle test.  Simply take a clean, clear bottle and fill it about ½ to ¾ with water from your tap. Then, place 10-12 drops of unscented, clear soap into the bottle and shake it. If the water has few bubbles and is cloudy then you likely have hard water. While this is not a scientific indicator of hard water, it will give you a good idea if you may have an issue or not.

Tackling hard water problems doesn’t need to be difficult or expensive. The ScaleBlaster electronic descaling system is easy to install and requires no ongoing maintenance, making it one of the most affordable and effective water scale removal and prevention solutions on the market today. The ScaleBlaster hard water descaler 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!
