The Science of Aqua
Explore our innovative solutions and discover a new era of chemical-free water treatment technology
The Power Behind Aqua’s Technology
Experience cutting-edge solutions that completely prevent 24/7 limescale deposits while dissolving existing scale. Our fully automated, maintenance-free process eliminates hidden costs and delivers significant savings through optimal equipment functionality—all without chemicals or salt. Aqua products maintain water quality and support both users and the environment.
Protection process
Aqua’s electric limescale dissolver, installed on the incoming water main, creates an electromagnetic field pulsing between 7,000 and 14,000 Hz. This field sets iron particles in motion, preventing lime from depositing and allowing calcium to remain suspended in the water, exiting through the drain without altering its taste or quality. This eco-friendly process requires no salt or chemical additives and maintains full effectiveness with a continuous power supply.
Aqua also dissolves existing deposits, typically showing improvements within weeks. Complete removal may take 6-12 months, depending on water hardness. Initial installation may cause temporary water discoloration and release loose lime flakes in heavily scaled systems. Aqua’s system is maintenance-free, features no movable parts, and incurs no hidden costs.
Installation is simple on various pipe types, including PVC, polyethylene, stainless steel and copper. The system operates with minimal energy use, costing only €3/year for Aqua 2000, €25/year for Aqua 3000 and €40/year for Aqua 5000.

Hard water facts
Hard water, also known as limey water, is widespread and poses health risks due to bacterial growth, including the potential for Legionella illness. Scale buildup is often visible on glasses, tiles, showerheads, taps and other surfaces in homes, as well as equipment in commercial and industrial settings.
More serious issues occur when hard water is heated, causing invisible limescale deposits inside pipes and on heating elements in dishwashers, washing machines, water heaters, boilers, heat pumps, heat exchangers, and cooling systems. Remarkably, a 3 mm layer of limescale will reduce energy efficiency in water-fed equipment by staggering 20%, highlighting the need to address hard water problems to maintain equipment performance and reduce energy consumption.
Calcium is essential for health. Aqua’s innovative design prevents harmful lime deposits while preserving vital minerals like calcium in the water—protecting both your health and equipment.

Softener
Aqua
PRODUCT
Hassle-free completely automated 24/7 powerful limescale protection. Swedish Patented Technology.
Requires regular supervision, efficiency checks, salt refills, high water usage and frequent maintenance.
OPERATIONAL COST
HOUSEHOLDS: Annual running costs over €300 (€150 salt + 150 maintenance) + local water charges
BUSINESS: Frequent, costly maintenance and daily salt/water feeds; estimated annual costs around €10,000 depending on site water usage.
HOUSEHOLDS: Protects homes and small businesses, including all appliances, with no hidden costs after purchase.
BUSINESS: AQUA 5000 protects hotels with up to 200 rooms with no additional costs, boosting capital investment value.
COSTS SAVINGS
HOUSEHOLD: €800/annually savings (energy, cleaning products, reduced wear & tear, replacement frequency of appliances).
BUSINESS: ROI within 1 year: up to 50% energy savings. 2-3 times longer equipment lifespan, minimal service needs.
High operational costs (salt, water, maintenance, and repairs) lead to significant expenses and risk of salt-caused corrosion.
CARBON EMISSION
Significant carbon savings due to reduced energy demand by up to 50%.
Unreliable for reducing carbon emissions due to inconsistent protection and energy savings
TECHNOLOGY
Affordable with no hidden operational or maintenance costs. Long lifespan (15 years) with consistent high-level performance.
Expensive to buy and maintain, with high operational costs (salt, water, maintenance). Prone to breakdowns and inefficiency.
INSTALLATION / COVID 19
Requires a plumber for unit fitting, leading to water flow interruptions during lengthy installation and future maintenance
COVID-safe, simple DIY installation in 30 minutes - no pipe cutting or plumber required.
MAINTENANCE
Maintenance-free technology throughout its entire lifespan.
Regular, costly maintenance required.
EFFICIENCY & FUNCTIONALITY
Automated protection for entire buildings from a single point. Aqua 5000 protects 200 hotel rooms; capacity increases 3x with parallel installation. Mounts on walls, requiring no floor space.
Large commercial setups need one softener per equipment or large ion-exchange units, with continuous salt/water feed and supervision. Requires significant floor space for unit and salt storage.
ENVIRONMENT
Chemical- and salt-free, preserving water’s natural structure while extending equipment lifespan, reducing waste, and minimizing scrappage.
Discharges large amounts of salt into groundwater, polluting the environment and requiring substantial water for daily regeneration.
HEALTH
Salt-saturated water, tasteless, unsuitable for some health conditions. Risk of bacterial growth and aggravation of skin conditions due to high salt levels.
Water retains all minerals for a richer taste. Prevents bacterial growth, improving skin and hair conditions (e.g., eczema).
