Would anyone here be able to advise on a recommended water softener / scale inhibitor?
Currently under my kitchen sink I have a Liff Combi-Flo "Scale and Corrosion Inhibitor". I don't think it had ever been re-filled by the previous owners. So I refilled it last year, but the amount of scale being left on our shower screen and on taps is still pretty bad. It does however, make the water out of the taps taste disgusting.
The kitchen tap, washing machine, dishwasher and outside tap are not connected to it. The heating F&E tank, Megaflo and all other cold taps are connected.
The plumber who fitted my heating said that he'd heard good things about a product called Aquabion. But admitted he's not fitted one, so couldn't comment personally. Their website says good things and links to an article in a publication endorsing the product after a year long test http://www.aquabion-uk.com/.
Can anyone comment if the Aquabion is any good or recommend something better? I'd read that it's not recommended to put softened water through the central heating.
Any advice is much appreciated! Many Thanks...
