Water Filters Italy Anti-Limescale Shower Filter

Product Information

An effective limescale filter, the Doby also improves the taste and smell of your mains water and removes chlorine and sediments. Those dissolved minerals are just the same as what is found in hard water from municipal supplies, and in some cases even worse.

The Doby is an undersink water filter and when fitting allow for a minimum of 28" (72cm) height x 12" (30cm) width x 7" (18cm) depth. If your tubes are different sizes there is no problem, we can supply a filter with fittings to match. Careful testing is performed on all our products and reports are available for many to substantiate performance. What a water softener system does is replaces the hard ions, that is, the calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate (CaCO3 and MgCO3 respectively) with sodium ions.

In this way, we significantly reduce our carbon footprint and the consumption of conventional plastic. Of course, some would argue, if you're in a high risk group for heart health problems then even that small amount is too much and should be avoided. Limecscale is a build up of hard water minerals, to counter this you can soften the water with a limescale control filter.

These filters are the perfect option for those who don’t want to deal with the maintenance issues posed by water softeners. A conditioner or scale inhibitor conditions or inhibits scale forming rather than removing minerals. This prevents the Calcium and Magnesium from bonding together to form limescale, and also over time will descale existing pipework and appliances. While whole house water filters do reduce the pressure of the water in your house it's more likely that it's the flow rate that you need to be concerned with.

When choosing a whole house water filter, also known as a mains water filter, you need to ensure that it is the right size.
