What is Scale?

Scale is a problem in many area's of Ireland and is due to Limestone in the ground. In the home water system it can build up on appliances, Kettles, Hot Water Cylinders, Showers, Washing Machines etc. For areas with minor scale in the water, a filter housing can be placed before devices with a specialist cartridge. The internal cartridge is changed every couple of months. For any reasonable amount of scale the most economical solution is a water softening unit that consumes salt.

Scale Testing Kits

We also sell a quick and easy testing kit to measure the amount of scale in your home water supply.
