GOOD NEWSfor homeowners who suffer from hard water problems,

or are tired of their salt-based softeners.

There is an inexpensive, safe, maintenance-free,

environmentally friendly alternative

The Electronic Hard Water ConditionerExtends usual life of water heater.

ScaleOut treated water is healthy for

people, pets, and plants.

• Low operating costs – less than $10/year inelectricity

• Saves water – with no regeneration yousave hundreds of gallons per month

“A few days after installing our ScaleOut, the scale around my faucets started to fall off. The improve- ment in the feeling and taste of the water was al-

most immediate and now the water heats up muchfaster. Thank you for a great product.”

K.S. Scotls Valley CA

“Since the electronic descaling technology did so well in our company’s steam boiler, I ordered a Sca-

leOut for my home. With a week the scale in my faucets disappeared, and the water heater stopped

gurgling. I highly recommend this technology to all my friends and co-workers.”

S.G. Monterey, CA

ScaleOut 1000The

The ScaleOut 1000 unit works by producing an elec-

tronic field generated by a coil around the pipe. This

converts the dissolved mineral ions (Ca+ and Mg+)into microscopic crystals that remain in suspension

and are eliminated by flowing down the drain.

Does it really work? YES - or your money back. We haveunits that have been in operation for over 18 years. As the

public is becoming increasingly conscious about the haz-

ards of climate change, more people have adopted this

environmentally friendly technology saving energy, water,

and reducing maintenance costs.

How can I tell if it’s working? What to look for:Within the first week, you will see elimination of new scale

deposits and loosening of existing scale. Soap will lather

easier, your skin will feel softer and your hair more man-

ageable. Spots on dishes will be reduced. In around 2 to 4

weeks or earlier, you should definitely notice:

• The softening of scale around faucets and showerheads

• Water will feel hotter with improved per formance of

water heaters, washing machines and dishwashers

• The ability to reduce the amount of soap, shampoo, detergents and cleaners used

• Easier cleaning of sur faces, especially chrome fixtures,baths & sinks

Does it affect the drinking water?Water remains chemically unchanged, only the physicalproperties are changed.
