The Staffordshire based company is ISO certified for its quality, environmental and occupational health management systems. It constitutes a vitally important link in the chain that enables domestic and commercial water and heating systems to function to the optimum level. In water systems regulated by products from Scalemaster chemicals are used sparingly and sensitively, with environmental issues always in mind. A huge number of systems are fitted with a Scalemaster inhibitor where its effectiveness in combating troublesome minerals in the mains water supply is proven. Instead of following the more traditional chemical route, the Scalemaster magnetic inhibitor range uses a magnetic field to modify the way limescale behaves. Instead of developing into calcite crystals, which are the hardest, unwelcome surface deposits, the scale develops instead into aragonite crystals, which heat-exchange surfaces are much better at resisting. A magnetic inhibitor is appropriate for single appliances such as boilers. The Scalemaster speedfit scale inhibitor is an easily installed electrolytic model which also avoids the use of chemicals, has no moving parts, and requires no power supply. The Scalemaster speedfit scale inhibitor operates by adding a very small amount of zinc to the water. The effect of this is to retard the growth of limescale by bonding with the dissolved calcium ions. Any micro-crystals that do form are small in number and won't stick to heat-exchange surfaces because they are easily washed away by the system's water flow. The Scalemaster speedfit scale inhibitor is the perfect whole-house solution. Scalemaster also manufactures a range of water softening appliances under its trademark Softline name. The Scalemaster Softline 100 is a popular compact electric metered model suitable for the rigours of the family home. It uses ion exchange resin together with a choice of either tablet or granular salt and it has the extra convenience of water hardness test strips. With a manufacturer's five-year parts and labour guarantee, the Scalemaster Softline 100 is an ideal domestic water softener system. These are just a few of the items from Scalemaster's extensive range, which covers all water softening and water treatment needs.
