how it works<\/h2>\n<p>  The mechanism for breaking down old lime incrustations is based on the fact that the resulting lime layer is not homogeneous, but consists of a large number of crystal layers that grow together.<br \/>\nWhen these layers collide, boundaries are formed that do not match each other in terms of their structure.<br \/>\nDue to the potential difference between the different materials, the induced electromagnetic fields cause forces that affect these transition structures and dissolve them.<br \/>\nIn the long term, this causes cracks to form at the transitions between these crystal layers, weakening their hold and causing entire lime crystals to be dissolved and washed away with the water &#8211; until the pipes are completely decalcified.     &nbsp;[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;
