E.) Installing the Signal Cable
(Continued)

5.) Make sure the wraps are flush against one another and not overlapping.
6.) Once the wrapping is complete, secure the signal cable to the pipe using another
nylon cable tie. Remove the excess cable tie.
7.) Route the loose end of the signal cable back to the power unit. Trim the cable to
length.
8.) Carefully strip the outer plastic shield from the end of the signal cable, leaving about
¼" to 3/8" of bare cable. Twist the bare cable and insert the end into the unused
receptacle post on the power unit. Tighten the receptacle post.
F.) Electrical Hookup / Activating the System
The unit you received is either 115 VAC or 230 VAC. Plug
it into the appropriate electrical outlet. If the unit you
received is a 240 VAC rated unit (most international
orders), there is no plug at the end of the power cord and
you will need to add the proper plug.
Once everything has been installed, a red indicator light,
listed as "power" should come on. This lets you know
electrical power is going to the unit. A green indicator light, listed on the faceplate as
"descaling", should also come on if the signal cable was hooked up to the two terminal
posts. Descaling will only take place if both lights are on.

The best feature of ScaleBlaster is that there is no
maintenance required! No heavy bags of salt to haul
around. No batteries to replace or moving parts to repair!
Allow at least 90 days to realize the full effects!
The
older your house, the longer it may take to fully descale
the pipes. After a period of time, scale around sinks, taps
and showerheads will soften. These deposits may
collect inside the faucet and head screens, leading to
temporary blockage. It is best to periodically clean these screens as needed during the
period of scale softening. This means the system is working!
We also strongly recommend that you drain your water heater after 90 days of install-
ing the ScaleBlaster.
You will be surprised at what has accumulated over the years.
This will make your water heater more efficient.
Please note that the ScaleBlaster is not a water softener, but a water conditioner.
After this "break-in" phase, all we ask you to do is to check to make sure the two
indicator lights are on (is case of a power surge or failure). The unit should stay on 24
hours a day. It only uses a few dollars a year in electricity.
The unit comes with a full 5-year warranty and is designed to have a lifespan much
longer than that.
