Did you know that limescale can increase your energy consumption by 30%? Have you ever thought of limescale as an invisible but concrete enemy of your finances? If you live in an area with hard water, limescale is a problem you can’t ignore. Not only does it accumulate inside washing machines, dishwashers and water heaters, but it significantly increases energy consumption. According to TotalEnergies, a caked-on appliance can require up to 10% more electricity to produce the same amount of energy. And the result doesn’t end there: your bills also go up, not to mention the accelerated wear and tear on your appliances.
But there is good news: there is a simple, economical and ecological way to protect your appliances and save money. The WPRO magnetic descaler, sold online for just over 10 euros, can make the difference.
WPRO: a small device for big energy savings
The WPRO magnetic descaler is a tool that to define as ingenious would be an understatement. Apparently simple, it exploits a magnetic power of well 18,000 Gauss to neutralize the grains of limescale suspended in the water. How does it work? Through a process of magnetic polarizationthese fragments are attracted and deflected, preventing them from settling on the heating elements of washing machines and dishwashers. In practice, the limestone is “expelled” together with the waste water, avoiding the formation of those encrustations that consume more energy.
Another plus point? AND compatible with all brands and very easy to install: just hook it to the water supply pipes. Weighing just 107 grams, it is a discreet but effective device.
