Polyphosphate is not hazardous to plant-life although it is not recommended to water your plants with the filter attached. Note: If you are not in a hard water / limescale area then save yourself money by getting a standard inline filter. It has kept our kettle descaled and a plumber who came round to repair our washing machine couldn't believe how clear of scale our element was, considering the water hardness where we live. Hard water is water that has high mineral content and is formed when water percolates through deposits of calcium and magnesium-containing minerals such as limestone, chalk and dolomite.

This replacement filter uses an ultra- dense CarbFiber Block made from powdered activated coconut shell carbon. This will result in a temporary peak in flow above 8 lpm however will not effect the performance of the system.

The shower filter uses natural carbon and patented copper-zinc alloy kdf both provide the most effective means of removing chlorine in water at high temperatures and limescale with this technology, the shower filter has proven to effectively remove 97% - 99% chlorine, up to 3 times more effective than other shower filters. Limescale causes countless problems for people in hard water areas, from damage to appliances to limescale formation on taps and showers.

We also have a full bore compression fittings bypass kit and flexible hoses available as an optional extra, these are useful for tight installations where the system cannot be installed in-line with the pipe and needs to go underneath / above the pipe instead. You will also get limescale clogging up the pipes and radiators of your central heating making them less efficient - you'll need to turn the radiators up to get the same temperatures, using even more costly energy!

You need to replenish the sat supply regularly, 2 to 3 times a week depending on the type and flowrate of the system.Based in Devon, with distributors throughout Europe, Silverline UK Limited manufactures a wide range of water treatment systems and products.
