Mineral Scale Buildup: Understanding Hard Water Issues

Hard water is one of the most significant challenges for tankless water heater owners. When water contains high levels of calcium and magnesium minerals, those minerals precipitate and form scale inside the heat exchanger and pipes.

Signs of mineral buildup include:

• Reduced hot water flow from faucets
• Temperature fluctuations when adjusting water settings
• System shutdowns or reduced capacity
• Unusual noises or gurgling sounds
• Reduced efficiency and higher energy bills

Professional descaling removes mineral buildup by:

• Using EPA-approved descaling solutions safe for the environment
• Circulating descaling solution through the entire system
• Breaking down and removing mineral deposits from the heat exchanger
• Restoring water flow and heat transfer efficiency
• Leaving your system performing like new
