"I was sick of lime blocking the pipes and I even had one hot water tap that just wouldn’t let water through. Now the tap works perfectly, the shower is cleaner, the jug has less limescale and my hair is softer, so I’m quite happy with my Water Buddy,” says Mrs E. Greg, Central Otago.
“Our hot water element died and when the plumber replaced it he was astonished there was no lime-scale on it. We knew it must have been working well because we have twice had to turn the thermostat down and that’s been a big saving on our power bill,” said Mrs S Anderson, Central Otago.
“The improvement in our dishwasher has been amazing. I’ve been able to cut down on rinse-aid by half and can now take out the dishes and not feel a horrible, powdery residue on them,” says Gaye Schurgers, Canterbury.

In the home, Calclear-softened water has several benefits ranging from better lathering of soaps and shampoos, to alleviation of itchy skin/scalp whilst progressively removing shower mould and inhibiting its return. (The sub 4 micron particle size is below that required for mould formation).
Ceramic, glass and stainless steel surfaces brighten up as the residue formerly left by the calcium crystals are removed.
Examination of the toilet flushing cistern will show the scale being broken down below the water level with the dislodged particles collecting at the bottom of the cistern. These particles where they are gradually broken down are flushed away.
The kettle, dishwasher and hot water cylinder element will become de-scaled and it will cost less to heat hot water.
Garden plants will flourish.
LIMESCALE
The visible problems:
- Scaled-up shower heads and taps
- Scaled-up kettles and steam irons
- Over use of shampoo and detergent
- Itchy and dry skin
- Black mould on shower curtains and tiles
- Scaling in baths, toilets and sinks
REDUCTION OF LIMESCALE IN HOT WATER SYSTEM
The hidden problems:
Scaling of hidden pipes, boilers, elements and safety valves
Increasing fuel and de-scaling costs
Early replacement of heating elements and appliances such as kettles, washing and dishwasher machines
Appliances take longer to heat, consume more electricity and eventually burn out
