What do you mean inhibitor?
Do you mean a filter?
In that case, Magnaclean, TF1, or Spirotech MB3.
All are fine and have their own sets of pros and cons. I prefer the Magnaclean.

I think the OP wants an in-line scale inhibitor, hence the title: inline mains inhibitor.
If you feel the need to fit one - most of the pros on here will probably say "don't bother, they're useless" - you want an electrolytic one. Scalemaster, Liff and Salamander do them. Available in compression and push-fit.

Yes the magnetic/ wrap around ones are indeed snake oil.

They do absolutely squat.
I just told you they don't do anything.
-Doctor doctor, my arm is falling off.
-Ok, sir I wouldn't advise playing cricket this weekend. Come back Monday and we'll stitch it back on.
-Ok Doctor, but I am playing Badminton on Monday, can I see you Tuesday?
Hangover not gone yet, obviously.
No, it is getting worse.
Bacon sarny is required.... Along with another pint of tea.
Gotta do some estimates this afternoon. Can't be grumpy when doing those. They get expensive then.
