Obviously, there’s lots of extremely clever science involved but let’s try and explain it simply so a non-scientist can understand it.

Limescale is a problem because it sticks to the surfaces of all your water appliances – not just on the showerheads and taps that you can see, but to the insides of the pipes, pumps and heaters that you can’t.

ÁguaKing stops this from happening by transmitting pulses of electrical charge into the water, which change the properties of certain minerals naturally present in the water. This way the limescale sticks to the minerals in the water instead of to the surfaces of your appliances. The limescale can then be harmlessly swept away in the water flow, rather than sticking to and clogging up your water system.

And unlike other kinds of water softeners, ÁguaKing’s electrical signals travel through the water both upstream and downstream from the unit, so it doesn’t rely on the water having to flow directly past it. It means that ÁguaKing doesn’t just stop new limescale from forming in your water system but it can actively descale all the parts of your water system that are already clogged up with limescale.
