the problem is you can't tell its working. i can say that i never noticed white fitting like i am now.I'd be curious to try it, just to see what kind of difference it makes.

you should still descale at least once a year, better to maintain and stay running than be down and trouble shooting.Gotcha. So, I may not need to change anything really considering I'm not getting all of those deposits and what not.
the magnets dont actually remove mineral, so they dont aid in cleaning and rinsing.That was the main thing I wanted to see in regards to trying the magnet. Not so much for the sake of the equipment but for the cleaning ability.
My pre sprays do a great job, and it is very rare that I can't get something looking great, but the idea of being able to use less product is appealing.

they supposedly just help keep the mineral from sticking to your plumbing.
i would spend money on a softner first.
Right now my stupid chemical feed is on the fritz. It started working backwards! So for the last few days I've been bypassing it till Rich gets the parts to reconfigure everything. The check valves and everything are shot from pulling in air.
I've got the 3 way switch which turns it off, on, and prime is shot. The dial to adjust it is shot as well. So Rich is going to replace the 3 way switch and the site thingie (my technical terminology) is going to have a switch right on it instead of that separate dial.
So in the interim I am using Flex Ice as my prespray. Is that the right thing to do? I'm also going to try that One Earth tonight because it says it rinses easily?
I'm not really clear on how to use that stuff.
The liquid jug says it's a cleaner and rinse, the powder says it's a cleaner and prespray. Neither one gives instructions on how to use in a hydro force.
i usually always use a rinse also. But in a pinch dont be afraid to just use water, there are alot of guys here that just use water.Cool....thank you! I've never cleaned without a rinse before.
Kellie the magnet isn't going to help with cleaning in my experience. The minerals aren't removed but aligned in a way that prevents scale. The water feels exactly the same before and after it, because it basically is. I don't know why it works but it did.That was the main thing I wanted to see in regards to trying the magnet.
