This Limeblaster model is engineered to prevent scale formation standard tank-type water heaters. There is no system that can prevent scale inside your tank-type water heater as well as the Limeblaster
The Limeblaster totally prevents limescale inside your tank-style water heater, up to 80 gallons in size. The limeblaster technology effectively “seals” the plumbing surfaces so that calcium and magnesium (often called limescale) cannot stick. Additionally, the Limeblaster water treatment method is environmentally friendly, uses no electricity, and is 100% safe for drinking water.

How It Works
The US Water Systems Limeblaster system uses a unique and patented dosing system that adds a small amount of siliphos (a food-grade material to the water, effectively “sealing” Calcium and Magnesium from sticking to any surface or pipes inside your water heater. Silcopolyphosphate is a “food grade” product and is safe for human consumption according to the WHO and FAO recommendations. It meets all FDA requirements for being “food grade”. Cities have used it for years on a smaller scale – it is completely safe.
The Truth About Lime Scale
Limescale is formed when cold water is heated in a water heater, boiler or tea kettle. In the process of heating water, such as in a water heater, calcium carbonate precipitates and forms limescale. We recommend installing the US Water Systems Limeblaster on just the line to the water heater as the limescale does not form inside cold water pipes. About half the water used in a home is hot water, so the US Water Limeblaster cartridge lasts about twice as long as when it is on both the hot and cold supply.
Maintenance
The Limeblaster Scale Prevention Cartridge is a slow-dissolving, slow-release siliphos that is rated to last at least 100,000 gallons. This can vary based on your water hardness and usage. In some cases, it can last six months, and in others, it might last one year.
