Water Conditioning Equipment



Phosphate Conditioners.
The phosphate version will actually actually work in the the exact same way as the water softening tablets that you can buy in supermarkets for your washing machine or dishwasher. This process works by using trace amounts of phosphate as opposed to zinc which has a conditioning effect on the water. This idea is that the resulting treated water is less likely to form the limescale deposits that appear on the inner walls of pipework. These units will cost more money but do really work. They need to be topped up with the phosphate every so often and won’t work if the dosing holes block.

Zinc Conditioners.
In appearance, these units look very similar to the electric/magnetic water conditioners and often come with electric or magnetic type fields. These units will, when operated, release zinc into the water supply. The zinc then binds itself to the hard minerals in the water, which has the affect of stopping them from coating the inner walls of the pipework. There is a snag with this system that is self defeating, that being, the zinc source often gets covered in limescale, itself, which, stops the release of zinc and stops the device from operating. These units tend to be more expensive than their electric and magnetic counterparts, but have the same pros and cons. Paddington Plumbers have the correct tools to fit all appliances.

Electric/Magnetic water conditioners.
The affect of this unit is not to soften the water, as the chemical composition of the water doesn’t change at all. What they do claim to do is physically condition the water by pushing it through a magnetic or electrical field. The principle is to alter the minerals in a way that will stop them from leaving coat on the walls of the pipework. They are cheap and really easy to fit. They will not interfere with components like boiler filling loops or water filters. They can stop working over a period of time with little or no warning, A Paddington Plumber is experienced with all conditioners.
