Alpwater FAQ

Just 7 cm x 9 cm x 4 cm. You need just 7 cm of unobstructed pipe to install the device.

Water hardness will not be affected. The calcium carbonate is not removed from the water, but Alpwater stops scale formation at source by preventing “chemical precipitation”, i.e. aggregation of the calcium to form limescale that builds up on surfaces and inside pipes.

Limescale in pipes will break up gradually, but it takes time to achieve a perfect result: usually between 8 and 10 weeks depending on the hardness of the water and age of the pipes in your home.

Fit the magnetic anti-limescale device on the main supply pipe before or after your water meter and before any pipe branches. The device can be fitted on a horizontal or vertical pipe.
Secure Alpwater to the pipe with the supplied pipe clamps. The unit can be fitted in 5 minutes without requiring any technical expertise.
