COMBIMATE Combiphos Refill

Product Information

This action prevents scale formation while retaining the health benefits of the natural minerals contained in hard water. Cost-effective: By preventing the buildup of limescale and corrosion in hot water systems, the Cistermiser Combiphos Refill can help to extend the lifespan of your system, which can ultimately save you money in the long run Combimate is an inline scale inhibitor and can be fitted to the majority of pipework configurations.

High-quality: Cistermiser is a well-known brand in the water treatment industry, and the Combiphos Refill is made from high-quality materials that are designed to last Combiphos also coats the inside of the pipework, boiler heat exchanger and appliances with a non-residual, microscopic, protective coating. This again prevents scale-causing minerals from accumulating and aggressive soft water from corroding the system and appliances. Combiphos is 100% food grade material approved by the FAO/WHO and compliant with the European normative standard BS EN 1208, that prevents scale build-up and soft water corrosion in combination boilers and other domestic hot water appliances.No. Combimate is not a water softener; water softeners generally use salts so softened water requires a separate supply because of the increased salt content. There are two installations options when fitting Combimate: whole-house supply or single appliance protection. This action prevents the formation of scale while retaining the health benefits of the natural minerals contained in hard water. Combimate is not a water softener but a phosphate dosing device. Combimate does not alter the hardness (or softness) of the home’s water supply but through the process of adding phosphate prevents limescale build up and provides softwater corrosion protection Combimate refill balls are added to the water supply in minimal quantities, sufficient to keep mineral ions in suspension.

Limescale doesn’t just form on taps and shower heads. Limescale can form on any surface where water is heated, including the internal surfaces of pipework and boilers. Below is a list of places where your home is vulnerable to the damaging effects of limescale formation: Combimate is a user-friendly domestic limescale prevention device that uses Combiphos to deliver guaranteed prevention of limescale and soft water corrosion water control, with no moving parts. Safe to use: The Cistermiser Combiphos Refill is safe to use and does not pose any health risks to users when handled correctlyFitting is simple – the only plumbing required is to route and connect two pipes, plus fixing the unit to the wall. This job can take less than one hour. Your Combimate can be installed to offer two levels of protection – the whole hot water system or a single appliance. Yes. Combiphos is classed as a ‘food grade’ additive which conforms to European Standards EN1208 and World Health Organisation standards as a safe additive to drinking water. Yes. Replacing the Combiphos is easy if the procedure is correctly followed or refer to the owner’s manual supplied with the Combimate unit. Whole-house supply– For this installation Combimate should be plumbed in after the stop-valve on the cold water supply to the premises. The white removable divider tray should be removed from inside the Combimate dome in a whole house installation so that the dome can be completely filled with Combiphos (the full 800g bag contents).

If you are a visitor, you will have to enter your details in full. If you have an account, then the default information will show. You can then amend where necessary and press ‘continue’ to save. Combimate requires very little space (roughly about the size of a teapot) and can be installed virtually anywhere on a home’s cold water supply pipework on either 15mm or 22mm pipework. Yes. If the Combimate is located in a warm environment (e.g an airing cupboard) or near a heat source, the Combiphos crystals will dissolve at a faster rate. Ideally Combimate should be installed at room temperature with a cold water supply, located at least 450mm from any appliance or local heat source to prevent water in the dome from warming and accelerating the dissolution of the Combiphos. Eco-friendly: The Cistermiser Combiphos Refill is eco-friendly and does not contain any harmful chemicals that could harm the environmentThe product is also supported by a professional customer service team with first class technical and spares support. Easy to install: The refill is easy to install, and it comes with clear instructions to help you get started Note: Combiphos does not soften water and its effectiveness may be reduced in water heated to temperatures above 60 degrees, in water with carbonate hardness levels above 360 ppm or at pH levels below 6.5. Boilers, shower head & screens, thermostatic valves, immersions, pipework, washing machines, taps and even electric kettles. What is Limescale? Health and safety– Combiphos is tasteless and odourless and contains a polyphosphate compound which is classified by the WHO as a ‘food-grade’ additive. The quantity, size and hardness of the spheres control the amount of Combiphos released. Typically this is less than 3 ppm (parts per million) of phosphate in treated water and perfectly safe for human consumption.
