9.2 Increase the Efficiency of the Heating System
When water is heated in a water heater or with a tank-less water heater,
shard water always leads to deposits on the heating elements. This layer
inevitably causes a great reduction in the capability of the heat to transfer.
A scale deposit of only 2mm (~0.078 inches) can lead to an energy loss
of more than 15%. The increase in heating time leads to a tremendous
rise in your power consumption.
