0-19 gpg Electronic Water Conditioner (Indoor Use Only)

I bought it in March, I sure hope I can return it since I purchased on my home depot card that has 1yr return policy. It doesn't work. I installed a new shower head when I put the unit in. Look at the picture of my shower head now. Horrible.

Complete garbage product did not reduce scale or hard water stains. Installed June 2015 after installing a new water heater in January 2015 and did a early almost 6 month flush to see how much scale I had in my water which was a lot especially for a new water heater. ( the crazy amount of scale is why I bought the scale buster ) With the ScaleBuster installed I flushed my water heater twice each year since then, and replaced the sacrificial anode at about 2.5 years of use. The last time I went just over a year before flushing. I can honestly say since we have had the ScaleBlaster I did not notice any reduction in hard water stains or reduction of scale build up in my water heater. My ScaleBlaster was installed just before the water heater so it only had to treat the water used for hot water so it had the best chance to work. Since my device was way out of warranty and not helping I decided to open it up to see what the insides looked like. I found they use 6 plastic clips to hold the back cover on and no screws ( all broke with the slightest attempt to release the clips) the plastic was dried and brittle. Here is the sad part there is only one tiny circuit board, a crude heat sink for a remote mounted 25w 2.2OHM resistor with a heat sink around it. The tiny board has tiny surface mounted parts It seems most of the circuits are to light up the power light and the scanning led's yet the circuit that does the business end of this device ( to apply a magnetic charge to the water ) is almost non existent. It seems to me for this device to have a chance to work it would need larger and more powerful circuits. I have included a picture so you can see just how little went into this device that will only blast the money out of your wallet. I think anyone giving this device a good review has been effected by the placebo influence and is not based on real evidence.

The only problem I had was finding a 12" straight pipe. But I did it working great. I did not show the work I put in,but I will you the end.

I bought this product and installed it the end of March so I don't have the full testament as to how well it will work. I will say that the instructions are easy to follow and method I used made it even easier. Because this replaced an older water softener, all I had to do is re-plume the water loop. I used (2) Sharkbite connectors, one of which was a ball value and the other was a straight couple. I did sweat the two 90 degree fittings at the bottom of the new loop. The advantage I had doing the loop in this manor, no soldering of wet pipe. I was also able to wrap the wire around the pipe very tight because the new loop was off the wall and I added additional zip ties to hold this wire tight. The water to us seems to be okay.Our showers we take lather up fine and our skin seems soft and the dishes in the dishwasher come out clean. The big advantage right now, I don't have to deal with salt any more.

Hopeful but disappointed. It did help slightly for our very hard water but just not enough. I contacted the company and they did tell me I may need to wait to get all the calcium out of the pipes. So I did, waited 8 months and it seems to be getting bad again, build up started to show on my shower head again. So if your water isn’t extremely hard then it might work for you.

I originally thought it was making some difference but not a lot. Until I replaced my hot water heater elements as I usually do about every 3 years. I was shocked how much hard scale material was inside the water heater. Different than usual. This stuff looked like it was from the ocean. Very coarse and hard with large than normal chunks. I've also never had an element burn out so quickly. Now I'm not sure if it's worth the money considering how much harder it makes it for the water heater.

I have had this product for about three years. I just learned how to do maintenance on our water heater. We have had the water heater for almost four years. When I drained the water, we had completely clear water.

It works amazing! Before buying this product I inquired on similar products. Talking with other reps I was being up sale on the service included with installation. I contacted the manufacture and they directed me to Youtube. The video explained everything as far as installation. Money Saver!

The only reason I am not giving this a 5 star... we have not had it in operation for over a week. Was simple to install .. instructions are very good. If you have questions they(the company) is QUICK to answer .. I am hoping it will do a great job just like they said. Am pleased with the answers I have received from the company ..

I bought the Scale Blaster about a month ago. Im renting a home and my water is terrible, super hard, it was bad on my hair, calcium build ups around faucets, in my sink, bathtub, toulet bowl etc. I didn't want to deal with water softener system installation, which I'll have to eventually move with me and also there isnt really good place for it. Anyway, I was tired of all that and did a lot of research, the Scale Blaster sounded like it was exactly what I needed ... if it worked. Read all the possible reviews on the internet, watched installation videos and decided to go for it and give it a try but I put it on a Home Depot credit card to extend the return policy. I felt it pretty much right away but wanted to wait a while before I do the review ... didn't want to jinx it lol. I LOVE IT! My hair is soft again! Sink is shiny, no white stains in my glassware! No build ups in my bathtub! It gives sqweaky clean feeling on my skin when im takig a shower! Did some canning right before I installed it and some a month after, look at my jars! Oh! Almost forgot! I'm a 34 yr old single mom, recently had to start taking care of things around the house by myslef and had no problems installing it! Less than an hour! So guys, quit your whining!
