Too expensive.
Not a big enough problem to warrant the huge cost.
A few places do it, most obviously with desal plants, but that only when only really bad water like sea water is available.

IN soft water areas they put a bit of hardness in. Of course that's easier - they just have to tip it in with the wagon loads of aluminium acetate.

They might try to sell it but no one is buying. I bought some kettle descaler in Lanarkshire. It was reduced to 10p a packet and was rather dusty.

Plenty 'think' all sorts of shit, but that doesn't make it true.
But plenty are too stupid to work out if the snake oil they pissed their money against the wall on actually does anything and too stupid to admit they were conned too.
Its completely trivial to test if shit like that does what it claims.

Could it? I did wonder about Bakelite. I knew it wouldn't melt but I wasn't sure whether it might become brittle and chip/crack after that.
If it could withstand repeated boiling water and not become brittle, I wonder why Bakelite kettles were never (AFAIK) developed.

How would you test it? Looking for you kettle furring up would take a long time and you'd have to have some way of quantifying how much scale there was n days after installing the device compared with the same time without the device.
You could measure how much soap you need to generate a lather, but that's also rather difficult to quantify.

Isn't that how you tell your water softener needs recharging? ISTR you have a special detergent and a little bottle you shake up.
