Little Plumber 1 (LP1)

x

The LP1 is an Electronic Water Descaler that softens hard water, removes limescale and prevents limescale from forming, is easy to install and requires no maintenance.

Listed below are just some of the benefits of installing an LP1 unit:
• Treats 1-4 bedroom house
• Removes existing limescale
• Prevents new limescale forming
• Protects and extends the life of your appliances
• Reduces your heating bills
• Kinder to skin and hair
• Water remains potable so it can be used for drinking and cooking
• Easy to install
• Guaranteed to work and guaranteed to last (see guarantees)
• No plumbing or chemicals
• Cost £2.00 a year to run
• Cuts energy costs - ECOFRIENDLY
• Treats pipes up to 50 mms diameter
• Computerised microchip technology
• Made in the U.K. by people who care
• Used by professionals
• H:72mm W:104mm D:31mm
• Mains Lead: 2m long
• Aerial: 1 x 1.5m
• TRIED & TESTED OVER 10 YEARS!

The Little Plumber LP1 is designed to treat a 1-4 bed house and has been TRIED & TESTED over 10 years. If you have an vented heating system you will need either an LP2 or 2 x LP1's. Unvented systems just need 1 LP1.

Little Plumber 1 is our most popular unit and is currently installed in houses all over the U.K. and elsewhere.


Extensive Guarantees:
The manufacturers are so confident in their electronic water softening products that they give you two specific guarantees:

12 month no-quibble money back guarantee
The FIRST is that if you are not delighted with the results of the scale removal and prevention after 12 months from installation, you may return your unit to them for a full rebate.

3 Year replacement guarantee
The SECOND guarantee is that if during the first 3 years of installation any part of a unit should fail we will replace the entire unit free of charge.

These units are built to last for up to 15 years.

This is how your Electronic Water Descaler works:

By coiling aerials around the cold water feed to a building or individual appliances, a series of very low frequency radio frequencies can be induced electronically into the water.

This effect runs in BOTH DIRECTIONS in the body of the water and causes the bonding together of tiny impurities, probably atoms of Iron or other metals.
These minuscule "sub-microscopic clusters" are so small that they cannot be seen by normal optical methods. Remaining in the water in huge quantities for up to 8 hours they nevertheless will start to break up as soon as the water loses connection with the main body of water being treated. This is important with water in a header tank, which is unconnected with the rising main, but providing the water is used in a reasonable period, it still remains "conditioned" and will continue to perform by preventing and removing limescale.

Now, when the cold water is heated, the Calcium and Carbonate ions in solution use these clusters as nuclei for crystal formation instead of the normal deposit areas such as heating elements. The reason for this is that the total surface area of the clusters is so vast that they become the preferred alternative for crystal seeding. The result is water in which the Calcium and Carbonate ions have deposited out to form what can be likened to "chalk dust" in the body of the water. These tiny crystals remain in suspension and do not form deposits although they can form a white sludge at the bottom of a tank if the water is static.

Once this "chalk dust" has been formed, the surrounding water is now much softer although there will still be some free Calcium ions so the water cannot claim to be totally soft-just softer. The softer water causes Limescale to now gradually break down and eventually even the most scaled up appliance will become free of scale.
