Limetron Inline Water Conditioner/Hardwater Limescale Remover ¾’’ (22mm)

Fitted in but will not know the results for a few months. You need to buy the connector fitting spearately

Only one star because I don’t think I can give it zero stars. We are in an area with TDS (total dissolved solids) of 210 to 220 PPM, so considered hard water. This product seemed like a cheaper alternative to a water softener, but did it work? The pseudo science (essentially some form of template-assisted crystallisation) is not backed up by published scientific literature, could a 6 inch length of pipe with very little constricted flow really make much difference? I was highly sceptical, but thought I’d give it a try.When it arrived the packaging seemed well constructed as did the product. It would certainly pass “UK building regs part L”, but so does a length of copper pipe. I tested it by connecting it to our cold water outlet in the kitchen, measuring the TDS with and without the device in place using a calibrated TDS meter. I found there was no difference in the TDS measurements. It had no measurable effect. If microcrystalline changes occur then those species are no longer in solution and a TDS meter would detect that change. I decided to ring the manufacturer and discuss what I’d measured, give them the opportunity to respond in case I had overlooked something. I was disappointed to find their phone number is no longer in service. Not good. Buyer beware.

I have had this installed for 3 years. I still get limescale build up particularly in the toilet. Did email the company a year ago with my concerns and never got a reply. I probably get less limescale than I used to but it has not been a cure for my house. Oh and kettle still has to be descaled?

wonderful results would recommend anytime!

As the saying goes, 'It does what it says on the tin'. Have to say it's spot on. I was going to have to replace my shower units but it seems to have help clear them too. What a differance it has made.
