Description of 🚿 Poly Guard Replacement Cartridge for Crystal System - Compatible with Whole Home Water Filters - Scale and Rust Prevention - Hard Water Treatment

ECONOMICAL HARD WATER TREATMENT: Replacement cartridges for the Poly Guard Crystal System make treating hard water easy. It’s an economical and safe way to treat hard water and iron without the use of a water softener. Includes six 1.5–pound refills. Each single cartridge treats 30,000 gallons. EXTENDED RELEASE CRYSTALS: When used as part of the Poly Guard system, each cartridge slowly releases microscopic crystals into the water supply, protecting plumbing and water-using appliances from corrosion and hard water. PROTECTS PIPES AND PLUMBING: The system defends against the ravages of hard water. Poly Guard extends the life of plumbing and appliances by forming a protective coating on metal and plastic surfaces preventing scale, corrosion and copper leaching. PROTECTS PLUMBING AND EQUIPMENT: The Poly Guard System protects home and commercial plumbing systems, along with water heaters, water processing equipment and food processing equipment, from mineral buildup and eliminates rust stains in toilets, tubs and sinks. CERTIFIED SAFE: The Poly Guard System Replacement Cartridge uses food-grade crystals to protect the water supply in your home or commercial location. It is independently certified to NSF/ANSI 60 for drinking water, so that you know your water is clean and safe.

Easy filter installation and replacement

Well made product. Easy installation and replacement of filters. Will update in 6 months whether he does what he says or not.

  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Large and bulky

No matching bracket for water filtration and softening

Would give 5 stars but does not come with bracket. It works in removing scale in water. I will be ordering a replacement filter that will fit in another cabinet that has faucets for another bathroom.

Pros
  • Quick Change
Cons
  • Annoys

Really good cheap options

I work with high pressure boilers and we use this chemistry to prevent rust in the water. When I discovered this product I was so happy. It works really well in my camp. This is a cheap option that really works.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • There are some nuances

I'm not entirely sure why I need this.

But it was originally fitted to my van (a reputable manufacturer's bus) so I replaced the original when I made the reverse osmosis filters. It seems to have something to do with protecting the pipes. In any case, this replacement is fine!

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Defective

a good cheap alternative to a water softener.

works great with hard water. helps reduce the amount of calcium and sediment. Faucet aerators no longer clog through plumbing. Use this on a hot water line to prevent hard water from quickly building up in the water heater. The water heater also works better.

Pros
  • Not just useful for its intended purpose
Cons
  • boring packaging

Works as advertised

Water is softer and hard water deposits are less severe than before. It doesn't completely eliminate harshness and my dissolved solids meter reads around 250 before and after installation, so it's not much better, but the spirit level is easier to clean. One time the fabric softener pellet broke off which makes me think I might need a filter after the fabric softener, otherwise it works quite well. Easier to install/maintain than a salt based softener.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • 0

I have very hard water and don't like salt softeners

I have very hard water and don't like salt softeners. I came across this concept of polyphosphates on a UK website, UK has hard water too. This setup is easy to install and well put together. I installed it as a side flow system on the main plumbing, in other words not all the water goes through the filter, it feeds the plumbing. After 45 days I no longer have any limescale deposits in my plumbing fixtures and what was there is gradually dissolving. As for the "cure for all", probably not, but…

Pros
  • Don't waste too much time
Cons
  • Factor Set
