drinking water - healthy and clean
Water is a precious commodity. What in Switzerland, flows from the tap is of high quality, clean and healthy d. In many parts of the country is t be lime is very high and the water quality hard.
Hard water can be drunk safely . Limestone deposited si ch but a b and caused many systems, machinery and equipment damage sensitive. This is particularly true if the what heated water. For example, in boilers, washing machines, coffee machines, showers and pans. Who needs more additional washes with hard water detergent.
How lime enters our drinking water?
in the global water cycle What amounts of water contained are in constant exchange with the materials of their environment. S nce the water because of the sunlight from the sea surface (ect or lakes and rivers.) Ago evaporates, it comes with the NEN air environment in contact with the in the atmosphere phere gases located in the rising water vapor release. This includes vital for un s human S accurate material, such as and carbon dioxide that we exhale. Ase but also Rep. - such as sulfur dioxide from industrial plants - solve in water vapor, resulting in a pH-lowering of the water (acid rain).
the next contact, the water then during passes through the ground. The seepage, slightly acidic rain dissolves on its way from the surface down to the ground minerals from the soil and transported it in dissolved Form on the water works away up in our households.
The greater the amounts of limestone in the soil, the harder the water, the more we rtvolle minerals such as calcium and magnesium are dissolved in water.
How much is the energy loss when the heat exchanger with a millimeter hard lime is occupied?
When using fossil fuels:
1mm calcification = 10% energy loss
2mm calcification = 17% energy loss
3mm calcification = 23% energy loss
4mm lime deposits = 28% energy loss
For electric boilers, the deposits lead to the defective heating elements, resulting in high repair costs with the result.
What flows with lime the drinking water through our water pipes ?
It depends on the amount of water and water hardness.
following assumptions:
water annual consumption for a detached house 200m3
- 20 ° f (11.2 ° dH) flows through our annual 40 kg lime water pipes
- at 30 ° f (16.8 ° dH) flows annually 60 kg of lime through our water pipes
- 40 ° f (22.4 ° dH) flows annually, 80 kg of lime by u ur water pipes
With these enormous quantities of lime is understandable that erleitugen problems Was and heat exchangers are inevitable.
What does a high water hardness for a homeowner?
A too high water hardness is not harmful to health. T seen but not to technical. Due to a high water hardness may arise for the homeowner, a high damage. It's just a matter of time until lime problems occur.
Some examples:
- Difficult to remove calcium deposits on the ceramics in the bathroom and kitchen.
- water damage as a result of defective appliances, and porous hoses.
- calcification or blockage of the pipe installations.
- destruction of electrical appliances such as coffee eMaschines, kettles, water heaters or washing machines.
- Poor cleaning results when washing dishes and glasses.
- High consumption of detergents in the washing machine.
- Increased risk of contamination by enlarged inner surface of the pipe obligations and the hot water tank.
magnetic force instead of chemicals and salt
The magnetic force is the most ecological solution for the prevention of calcification in the conduction system and the production of so-called "soft water".
Running water occur through a strong magnetic field, some physical phenomena that can be up to now by science in theory only explains to some extent. M to estimates that is in the water negatively charged water molecules (H2O) and mineral complexes with a positive charge may be. Then takes place simultaneously with the lime crystals, smashing increased approximately 40-fold and a conversion to "aragonite", a softer calcareous. These much smaller aragonite particles are now also positively charged and remain n in the water permanently in suspension. With a total evaporation of the water as in a pan or on a surface remains a nic ht liable white powder.
can
This Kalkwandler directly on the line be mounted. Condition is that the existing water line, brass, copper, plastic or stainless steel. Only in this way the magnetic field can penetrate the water flowing through properly. For galvanized steel pipes in older buildings, a short piece of pipe by the local plumbing to be replaced with a brass tube.
Why Kalkwandler for example, by the company or Mediagon Maratch
Clean:
Soft water makes for shiny fittings and tiles throughout the house. The water pipes do not calcify. It is a long-term protection against expensive repairs
well-being:
Soft water stimulates the skin with all important minerals. It also saves Shampoo , bath and shower gel and soap. The wash is gentle and soft and keeps much longer.
Aroma:
With soft water, you can enjoy the tea, coffee and food even more. Also, the pastries are made with ionized water taste more intense. Because the limestone can no longer store the flavors.
Beauty:
Many plants need a soft Water. They thrive better and thus grow faster with healthy beauty. Without the usual unsightly lime spots on flowers and leaves.
reflection of the work process:
I have dealt with this topic because I was confronted with it and I just think you should tell more. About 2 months later a representative of the Company Mediagon to our home and of course wanted to sell his product. At first we were a little skeptical, then he said we could test the unit six weeks free and then decide whether we like it or not. We agreed, and ultimately a positive surprise. The cleaning is much easier now and in the bathroom and the kitchen it has only soft lime. We need less detergent and shampoo and, above all, the drinking water has improved. So I'm personally excited about this device and would recommend it to anyone. For the device speaks also of course that it's not so expensive (1900 francs for a single-family house), and therefore really worth when you see what All of this saves you time, money and nerve!
