DISTANCE BETWEEN COIL AND CONTROL BOX

The new high powered Star units can be mounted 10 to 20 feet away from the coil if necessary. We include 39 feet of wire with the 3 Star model. It takes about 14 feet for 2x20 wraps of coil on a 1” pipe, which allows for a maximum of 12 feet of cable length (each way) from controller to coil. With 3 Star units it is acceptable to add another few feet of cable if necessary. INSTALLING THE COIL Secure the middle of t ...

SCALEWATCHER™ PERFORMANCE GUIDE

The SCALEWATCHER™ hard water conditioner system treats all incoming water as it passes the coil and alters the scaling properties of the dissolved minerals so that it does not adhere to surfaces and form hard scale. Your SCALEWATCHER™ System will: 1. Prevent any further hard-scale buildup 2. Remove the existing scale that is inside your water system 3. Soften the existing hard scale around taps, basins, toilets, etc. ...

(depending on water usage and amount of existing deposits). You will notice your

softener working more efficiently and using less salt. TANKLESS WATER HEATERS Tankless water heaters and radiant heating applications: periodically inspect and clean the sediment filtering screens until no more scale particles are visible.

The water softener requires that you purchase salt periodically. 4. The softener gives you a silky feeling that you cannot get rid of soap from your body. 5. The water softener makes your skin d ...

REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEMS

The SCALEWATCHER™ System will gradually clean up scale deposits clogging the Reverse Osmosis membrane resulting in longer lifetime and more efficient drinking water production. REPLACING A SALT BASED WATER SOFTENER If you have replaced a salt water softener, you may notice the water becoming harder as the scale begins dissolving. You may wonder, “What have I done here?” Do not worry. This is a consequence of descaling, and t ...

unlike inside a pipe, the scale can be easily removed manually as it gets softer. After

initial cleaning, there will be no new accumulations. AFTER THE FIRST 90 DAYS All descaling should be complete and you will be left with: 1. Soft-feeling water from every tap. 2. Clean pipes, faucets and showerheads. 3. Cleaner dishes, sinks, tubs and shower stalls. 4. Savings in energy and detergent expenses. Check the SCALEWATCHER™ control panel periodically: It ...
