For nearly a century, an unchanged technology has been used to address the significant negative effects of hard water. Ion exchange is a method that works, but at a high expense, a high cost to the environment, and poor reliability. In an era where sustainability and efficiency are no longer optional choices, Aqua-Rex steps into the breach.
Hard water caused by dissolved calcium affects millions of people globally. It could be considered the single biggest challenge to households and commercial operations worldwide. As water is heated, the calcium precipitates, forming a hard scale surface that coats pipes, appliances, and heating systems. Over time, that buildup restricts water flow. It reduces heating efficiency, causes heaters to fail, and leaves unsightly deposits on surfaces and appliances. "You can't simply wipe the scale away," says President Jonny Seccombe. "Scale sticks and only an acid can remove it."
