Trying to alleviate the problems of being in a hard water area. I cannot use a normal salt softener as I have a sewage treatment plant and the little bugs are not keen on sodium nor is the wildlife in the stream into which I discharge, with an environment licence I may add. Looked at the units that contain resin. Not cheap to buy and every year cost a couple of hundred to replace the resin. Have always been dubious of the magnetic jobs, even though at my last work we had 2 massive units that did seem to help. I was always told that using magnetic conditioner the salts recombined after a certain time so back to square one.
Now I have come across this unit which looks magnetic but is not. Have been told the water will still be "treated" up to 3 months later. Has anyone opinions or experience of one of these as for a 22mm unit the cost is about £140 which looks very reasonable if it works. I am not after soft water just a reduction in limescale.

Trying to. Bit of a joke nobody displays prices online. "Sorry but we are not allowed to sell this product via our website as the manufacturer does not allow us to display the low price on the website in case it upsets our competitors! What a load of bollocks.
