Description
Most water supplies are usually saturated with large amounts of minerals, such as calcium carbonate (lime scale), calcium sulfate, iron and manganese, which can cause corrosion and scaling. Scaltrol stops mineral scale by introducing a measured amount of sequestrant into the water. The mineral molecules, which have a positive charge, are attracted to and held in suspension by the negative charge of the sequestrant. The mineral molecules are unable to join together, so scale is unable to form.
Features
The Scaltrol SC-100 includes both the housing and a Scaltrol cartridge. The SC-100 will treat up to 100,000 gallons of water per cartridge and is well suited for larger families or higher usage applications. The SC 100 has 3/4″ female connections.

Energy Savings
A layer of scale 1/4″ on a heating element will decrease the efficiency and will subsequently increase your energy bills by up to 40%.

The mineral molecules, which have a positive charge, are attracted to and held in suspension by the negative charge of the sequestrant.
