The ScaleStick SS-10 with HydroBlend Filter System offers comprehensive protection against limescale buildup while safeguarding your water-fed equipment from corrosion. This all-in-one solution is ideal for coffee machines, espresso makers, dishwashers, tankless water heaters, ice machines, and various other water-using appliances. The system features the innovative HydroBlend compound, which maintains its effectiveness even at high temperatures - a significant advantage over standard scale control additives. Its patented design delivers precise amounts of HydroBlend for consistent, long-term protection. The SS-10 comes complete with all necessary components for installation and operation. For optimal performance, it's recommended to check the cartridge every 6 months and replace it before the HydroBlend compound is fully dissolved. While pre-installation deliming is beneficial but optional, removing any loose scale before installation helps prevent potential equipment clogging.
