Twi-5001 Mineral Ii Magnetic Water Conditioner, Gray Product Details Product Description The strong magnetic field created by the Mineral Magnet II helps stop scale and deposits from forming in fresh water pipes and can help improve the taste of your tap water. The strong magnetic field modifies the polarization of mineral salts in fresh water and restricts the formation and build-up of sediments and calcium in water pipes, hot water tanks, and hot water furnaces, which over time, can obstruct the flow and efficiency. In from 15 to 90 days (depending on levels of minerals in your water and the condition of the water pipes and heating elements), you will notice the improved flow and volume of water. Mineral Magnet II can not only help to eliminate maintenance and repair bills for plumbing and appliances but can also help to lower energy costs by restoring appliances to peak efficiencies as it helps to eliminate deposit build-up. Most importantly, Mineral Magnet II does not modify the chemical composition of tap water as a water softener does. It keeps all of the essential mineral properties which are vital to good health and hygiene but eliminates the harmful effects of calcium on skin, hair, laundry, and kitchen utensils. Mineral Magnet II fits most incoming fresh water pipes (PVC, PEX, copper, iron, and galvanized iron) up to 1.5" in diameter. It installs in seconds and requires no tools to do so. 5 year limited warranty. From the Manufacturer The Mineral Magnet II from Trillium Worldwide uses a powerful magnetic field to modify the polarization of mineral salts and reduce calcium deposits and build-up in fresh water pipes. Scale build-up occurs as a result of hard water that is piped into the majority of our homes and as a result over time the build-up costs us money due to inefficient water flow. Hot water takes longer to heat due to inefficient flow, water flow is weak or varies and water bills are higher due to running water longer. The pockets of build-up can even cause clogs in pipes leading to them needing to be replaced or having to hire someone to come fix them. Through the use of the Mineral Magnet's powerful magnetic field mineral salts in water will continue to flow rather than settle and harden on water pipes. This means scale build-ups will be reduced which can lead to tastier tap water, healthier skin and cleaner dishes to name a few. Installation is a breeze as well and can be done in a matter of minutes upon determining the pipe it will be installed on. The Mineral Magnet II should be installed on an incoming fresh water pipe that is 1.5-Inch in diameter or smaller. The scale build-up in the water pipe prior to installation will determine how long it will take to notice results as pipes with heavy build-up may take time to break down the existing deposits. *Helps to resolve hard water issues without the use of salt, chemicals, electricity or maintenance, leaving healthy minerals in suspension and reducing scale buildup. *Helps to descale the water system and prevent future scale buildup. Can reduce energy use and pays for itself quickly. Ideal for the home, hard water areas, the environment, people on salt-restricted diets and can assist in creating healthier skin and hair. *Fits plumbing up to 1.5?, including copper, galvanized, PVC, PEX and iron.
