I wonder if they'll have it back in stock next February

Would you like to post the hardness figures for your water before and after treatment? Not that I don't believe you, but......

Isn't an Aqua dial a conventional ion exchange unit? They do work as we all know.

Its the electronic descallers that don't which it waht the OP asked about.

[The Natural Philosopher]

Descalers are not water softeners.

Descalers only claim to prevent hard scale build up in certain places.

They are supposed to modify the type of crystals that are produced so that instead of scale constipation, you get carbonate diahoerrhea.

This - if it works* - may well protect central heating pumps, and even stop appliances scaling up, but it does nothing for soap consumption and will still leave calcium stearate scums everywhere on the bath.

*and even the most positive tests seem to indicate it only works close to the device in areas of cavitation like pumps.
