Introduction
The next-ScaleStop system provides protection from scale formation throughout the home. The
ScaleStop system can be installed at the point of entry to treat your entire home, both hot and cold
water, or it can be located directly before a water heater or other device (e.g. sauna, etc) that requires
protection from hard water.
ScaleStop reduces or eliminates scale formation on internal and external plumbing surfaces as well
as reducing spotting and streaking normally associated with hard water.
ScaleStop prevents scale by transforming the normal dissolved hardness minerals into undissolved
crystal micro-particles. These crystals stay suspended in the water and have a greatly reduced ability
to react and attach to surfaces like dissolved hardness does. Therefore the problem of internal build-
up of scale in pipes, water heaters and on fixtures and glass is greatly reduced.
ScaleStop is not a water softener – Low or phosphate-free cleaning products are recommended to
achieve optimum results. Modern surfactant or detergent based, liquid soaps are preferred over old-
fashioned caustic solid soaps.
Unlike softened water, Scalestop treated water maintains the beneficial essential mineral content of
your water and is safe to drink.
