Product Description
Do you live in a hard water area and suffer from lime scale on sinks, faucets and showers? This is because your water supply contains dissolved minerals which appear as troublesome lime scale. They form into hard deposits settling on the surfaces of sinks, faucets, pipes and inside appliances and greatly reducing the efficiency of water heaters and furnaces. Eddy is easy for anyone to fit, requires NO plumbing changes, does not require any salt and costs a fraction of the price of a conventional salt-fed softener. Eddy produces a complex electro-magnetic wave which is applied through two coils placed round the incoming water supply line so that your water is subjected to an ever changing magnetic field as it passes through the coils. This alters the adhesion properties of the limescale so that it no longer deposits itself on your clean surfaces, inside pipework and appliances. Eddy does NOT alter the chemical hardness (TDS) of the water so the beneficial effects of the calcium and other minerals is retained - for example, calcium has been shown in medical tests to reduce incidence of heart disease. Eddy has been used worldwide in thousands of homes and businesses for over 20 years, is highly economical and in most cases represents an easy eco-friendly alternative to salt-based water softeners. It is effective on all types of water pipe (except lead) and is the only descaler to come with a risk-free, no-quibble 12 month money-back guarantee AND a Lifetime repair or replace guarantee. Buy with confidence. Comes with standard cables for pipe diameters up to 1 inch. For larger pipes please see Eddy 'Coil Set C' on our Amazon Storefront. IMPORTANT: Outdoor installation requires a weatherproof enclosure (not included). SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING MONEY-BACK WARRANTY: To avoid Amazon 20% restock fee after 30 days, please contact us to arrange returns so that your money can be refunded in full

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I have had the EDDY for two months now and it has performed flawlessly. When I first received it, for example, I cleaned a small nozzle based shower head and recommissioned it. This unit had been set aside because it always clogged with calcium deposits. I also cleaned the glass shower doors and dishwasher. Now, after two months of use, none of these items show any evidence of calcium deposits. The water also seems softer when using shampoos, etc.
I believe there may be several reasons for some reviewers to not have a good experience. These are all easy mistakes to make during the installation, especially if the instructions are not carefully followed. Of course, too many of us fall into that category.
1. It is very easy to make a mistake in winding the coils and, therefore, end up with opposing coils.
2. It is very easy to get the coil wires mixed up and this can have the same effect as a wrong winding
3. As stated in the instructions, this unit will not work on iron pipe, but how many homeowners know the difference and most water supply lines are iron pipe.
4. The electronics unit is best when it is located close to the coils
5. Expectations are too often tied to a water softener instead of a de-scaler and this occurs because customers often do not understand the difference
6. As stated in the manual, existing water pipes may have significant hard water build up in them from the past. If this is the case, then it will take some time for this to be descaled out by the conditioned water and this may initially delay optimum results.
Lastly, I believe the price is reasonable and the unit is a good value. So far, the quality seems to be there as I have had zero problems.
Update:
It's now been almost 5 months since I installed the Eddy and my "rain shower" still does not show any issues with hard water deposits. This is one of the older shower heads with metal, not rubber, nozzles so deposits normally show quickly. Also, my glass shower doors stay clear with normal cleaning and my 15 year old water heater has been performing better. Additionally, my dishwasher is still clean. Obviously, there have not been any problems with the Eddy, either, so my report is all positive.
After I installed this instead of having hard & crusty build-up, it makes the lime/calcium powdery when left behind. So it doesn't eliminate hard water issues completely, but it does make it much easier to manage and you're not as likely to sustain damage to plumbing fixtures and appliances. Also, I didn't have too much of an issue with the wash machine or dishwasher after it was installed. Sometimes I still add something to the wash for hard water, but I typically use natural/neutral detergents and have not had an issue with things coming clean.
So overall, I'd say this was a totally worthwhile investment, and I'm thinking about it for the new place (even though it is a rental - for the cost it is not worth the extra hours and expense of cleaning up after hard water build-up).
I honestly wasn't 100% certain where I purchased it, but I tried looking it up in my orders, and lo and behold, it was sitting there waiting for me.
If you're out of luck on space, but need something, pull the trigger. This is a nifty gadget that does what it says and has decent longevity.
From my experience thus far, it does work. Note that it does not *prevent* scaling, but it does noticeably reduce it. I have a hot water kettle that is used multiple times a day. Before, I had to descale it every 3 weeks (we have extremely hard water in this area). After installing the Eddy, I only need to descale every couple months.
Likewise, there is slower/less build-up of hard water deposits on the shower door, faucets, etc.
It's doing the job I purchased it to do.
Eventually I'll get a water softening/filtration system, because the water here really is that bad.

The first thing we noticed was a much improved flow on our hot water system. Prior to the installation the flow was milky colured and very slow now the flow has increased by 100% and the water comes through iat a greater flow rate. This must mean a saving in gas - boiler working for less time. I am also hopeful that it will save us having to replace the heat exchanger in the boiler quite so often, we have been through three in six years thats a total of some £600 ! (We also go through electric showers at about the same rate)
There is also been other changes the electric kettle, no scale build up, shower screen stays cleaner, less scale on taps and less use of soap as you don't need to to use as much.
The device is very easy to fit, taking around an hour. The device comes with cable ties to hold the coils onto the pipe and I would suggest its a goood idea to have a couple of spares in case of mistakes. (Once fitted give the Eddy time to work ! This is stipuated in the manual and is why writing the recommendation has been left )
Although the Eddy is not the cheapest on the market the benefits we feel out weigh this. All round an excellent device .
