FACT: Softened water descales. It will dissolve away existing scale back into the water without breaking away in lumps. Speed of descaling is proportional to water temperature. examples:- Kettle @100ºC up to 14 days. Hot water cylinder with 12 years of scale @60ºC up to 6 months.
HARD WATER: Typical scaled hot water tank and pipe: The heating coil shown on the left is now a solid column of heat wasting scale.
	SOFTENED WATER: After 13 years of softened water, this tank is still scale free. It is running with as new efficiency and has the original heating element still working in it. We've left the harmless blue-green staining that you get with all copper piping intact to show the integrity of this photo.
	Look carefully at the dishwasher heating element shown in this photo. Does yours look this scale free and this efficient? This dishwasher has been running on softened water since new and 16 years later it is still scale free with an Ensign water softener.

From our experience I can tell you that a kettle @100ºC will clear in about 14 days, whereas 12 years of scale in a hot water immersion tank @ 60ºC can take up to 6 months to dissolve. After this has happened they will stay scale free permanently.

NOW THE SCALE HAS GONE

It's a fact that scale quickly gets forgotten as a thing of the past. What people tend to remember is the dramatic enhancement your new Ensign water softener has on the soaps, washing powders, shampoo etc.

FACT:
Soaps and detergents dissolve efficiently in softened water meaning that only 1/8th of the usual amount achieves the same results as before.

Ask anyone who's used their regular amount of soap or detergent when visiting a soft water part of the UK if they've noticed enhanced suds!

In reality most people get used to using about 1/4 of what they did before and enjoy the extra lather.

How to use less soap have no scale, no scum
and lots more lather!

Softened water will be available on the mains cold water straight away. This is usually the kitchen cold tap.
