How to Install Flux?

Installing Flux is very easy compared to a salt-based water softener. Flux consists of two metal parts with a round recess on the inside. These metal parts can be placed above and below the incoming water pipe. On the left and right sides of Flux, there is a round hole where both supplied bolts are placed. These bolts are the round metal rods with a head with thread on them. Place the bolts with the head on top through the holes in Flux. Tighten the nuts on the underside against Flux until it is securely attached. No tools are required, unlike a salt-based water softener. You can easily tighten the nuts by hand without needing much force.

How Does Flux Work?

Unlike a salt-based water softener, Flux has a magnetic field. By placing Flux, like a salt-based water softener, at the beginning of the water supply in your home, all the water you use in your home first flows past the anti-scale magnet. The magnetic field of Flux then changes the crystal structure of the water. Minerals such as calcium and magnesium can no longer bond with each other. The lime particles remain dissolved in the water. They can no longer precipitate on pipes and appliances. The lime particles do not adhere, for example, to the heating element of your washing machine or the glass screen of your shower cabin. This extends the lifespan of your electrical appliances and reduces the need for tedious cleaning tasks.

A salt-based water softener works differently, as salt is added to the water to soften it. Flux, like a water softener, prevents lime from getting onto the pipes.

How to Maintain Flux?

The magnetic field of Flux treats the incoming flow of water in your home. The effects become visible after a few weeks, and from that moment on, Flux continuously does its job. No additional things are needed for this, such as power or salt, as is the case with some other water softeners. Our magnetic Flux devices are completely maintenance-free. Convenient, isn't it?

What Is the Cost of Flux?

The costs of Flux are limited to the purchase price, unlike a salt-based water softener. The price of Flux varies from €69 to €115, depending on the size and power of Flux and the difference between home use and industrial applications. Unlike a salt-based water softener, Flux is maintenance-free and has no operating costs. Once you have purchased Flux, you will not have any further costs. No service fees, no maintenance costs.

Is My Water Pipe Suitable for Flux?

Flux can be installed on any type of water pipe. It doesn't matter if the water pipe is made of PVC, copper, flexible pipes, or (galvanized) steel. The material of the water pipe does not affect the operation of the water softener. This means you never have to buy a new Flux. Due to the easy installation, you can easily move Flux to a new address.

How Quickly Does Flux Work?

Flux works immediately from the moment of installation. However, it takes a few weeks before you start noticing the difference in your home. How quickly the effects become noticeable depends on the water hardness in your municipality and the age of the pipes. First, the existing lime in the pipes and appliances will dissolve, and then you will have water of optimal quality.

What Happens to Water Hardness?

Water hardness indicates how hard tap water is. The hardness can vary from city to city. The higher the concentration of metal ions in tap water, the harder the water. Metal ions include magnesium carbonate and calcium carbonate, but they can also be bicarbonates and sulfates. Placing Flux does not change water hardness. This is different with a salt-based water softener. The magnetic anti-scale magnet ensures that the lime particles do not settle in the water and in your household appliances, but remain suspended in the water. So, hardness does not change, but the scale does.

Does Tap Water Taste Different with Flux?

Of course, taste is
