COMBIMATE Combiphos Refill

Product Information

Apart from the annual replacement of the Combiphos crystals, Combimate requires no other maintenance. Limescale doesn’t just form on taps and shower heads. Limescale can form on any surface where water is heated, including the internal surfaces of pipework and boilers. Below is a list of places where your home is vulnerable to the damaging effects of limescale formation: Easy to install: The refill is easy to install, and it comes with clear instructions to help you get started

Combimate refill balls are added to the water supply in minimal quantities, sufficient to keep mineral ions in suspension.Combimate is a user-friendly domestic limescale prevention device that uses Combiphos to deliver guaranteed prevention of limescale and soft water corrosion water control, with no moving parts.

Combimate is a widely recognised, provenhard water scale inhibitorthat since its launch in 1987 has delivered protection to hundreds of thousands of homes.

FAQs

Combimate requires very little space (roughly about the size of a teapot) and can be installed virtually anywhere on a home’s cold water supply pipework on either 15mm or 22mm pipework.

Scale Prevention – These prevent these chemicals depositing themselves inside pipes, tanks and shower heads. These are small plumbed-in devices that use chemical, electrolytic or magnetic methods to accomplish this. Combimate which is a hard water scale inhibitor is in this group. If you are a visitor, you will have to enter your details in full. If you have an account, then the default information will show. You can then amend where necessary and press ‘continue’ to save. Health and safety– Combiphos is tasteless and odourless and contains a polyphosphate compound which is classified by the WHO as a ‘food-grade’ additive. The quantity, size and hardness of the spheres control the amount of Combiphos released. Typically this is less than 3 ppm (parts per million) of phosphate in treated water and perfectly safe for human consumption.

In a central heating system, Combimate will only protect the boiler via the mains water feed into the heat exchanger. However, the ‘closed loop’ of the heating system (radiators, pipework etc) is not protected. Combiphos coats the inside of the pipework, boiler heat exchanger and appliances with a non-residual, microscopic, protective coating to prevent scale-causing minerals from accumulating and aggressive soft water from corroding the system and appliances. This action prevents scale formation while retaining the health benefits of the natural minerals contained in hard water. Note: Combiphos does not soften water and its effectiveness may be reduced in water heated to temperatures above 60 degrees, in water with carbonate hardness levels above 360 ppm or at pH levels below 6.5. This reinforces our statement of Sustainability without Compromise, ensuring that we practice what we preach whilst consistently providing our customers with fantastic service. Effective: The phosphate-based compound in the refill helps to reduce the buildup of limescale and corrosion in water systems, which can lead to improved performance and energy efficiency

Installation of the Combimate has been carried out in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. There are two installations options when fitting Combimate: whole-house supply or single appliance protection. Yes. Combiphos is classed as a ‘food grade’ additive which conforms to European Standards EN1208 and World Health Organisation standards as a safe additive to drinking water. Combimate does not use magnets or any electricity in its anti limescaleoperation and is both easy to install with minimal maintenance.Fitting is simple – the only plumbing required is to route and connect two pipes, plus fixing the unit to the wall. This job can take less than one hour.
