The water conditioner media surface accelerates the natural tendency of dissolved lime to crystallize, but does so before lime can deposit on pipes/surfaces further downstream. The composition of the Soft-Tec® Water Conditioner Media surface mimics that of calcium carbonate crystals, allowing the dissolved lime in hard water to form microscopic hard crystals of “activated lime” on the media surface via the process of “template induced or epitaxial nucleation.” The Soft-Tec® Water Conditioner Media returns lime to the water as stabilized crystals of “activated lime”. Once the microscopic crystals of activated lime grow large enough, they are freed from the Soft-Tec® Water Conditioner Media surface by shear forces of water flow. This makes room for generation of new activated lime crystals. These activated lime crystals are “stabilized,” and will not cause pipe scaling or stubborn lime deposits on surfaces. When the Soft-Tec® Water Conditioner Media-treated water dries on surfaces, these crystals form a fine, dusty residue that is easily wiped off without cleansers. The Soft-Tec® Water Conditioner Media’s produce “activated” crystals then remove pre-existing scale and prevent new scale formation. Calcium carbonate in pre-existing scale will slowly “redistribute” itself from the low-surface area of pipe surfaces and plumbing to the high surface area of all the crystals in solution. The trillions of microscopic crystals of activated lime provide an incredibly high total surface area for further epitaxial crystallization. The net result is removal of pre-existing lime scale from plumbing, keeping pipes and appliances lime-free whilst leaving a thin protective surface!
