CalLytic combats the formation of hard limescale and prevents corrosion when used on a central heating system. Within the unit are zinc plates which create the same reaction as a magnet. Once water passes over the plates and the inner copper body of the unit, a single polarity is induced into the water. This causes the calcium and magnesium (limescale) particles to take on the same polarity. The particles then repel each other, and as a result prevent the formation of hard limescale. In addition, the zinc plates slowly release minute particles into the water supply which prevents corrosion by removing all the air in the system.

Our commerical sized CalLytic can be fitted to 35mm, 42mm and 54mm pipework and does not require earth bonding. The unit can be fitted to both hot and cold water lines and is supplied with compression fittings. CalLytic has been designed to provide protection for up to ten years. After this time the zinc within the unit will be completely depleted.

CalLytic comes with a 5 year guarantee on parts. For more details please click here.

After Installation you should notice the following effects…

1. Any hard limescale that has formed around pipe work and heating elements will begin to break down upon contact with treated water.

2. After several months your hot water system will gradually become more efficient. Eventually you should be able to lower the water temperature and make considerable savings over the year. For more information on how limescale can affect the efficiency of your heating system please click here.
