The lime scale and rust that has built up inside the pipes, thereby narrowing its cross-section, is gradually dissolved, eventually leaving a protective film on the pipe surface to prevent corrosion pitting. The reddish discolouration of the water when a tap in freely flowing pipes is opened soon disappears.

Water Treatment

Optimal treatment results also for hot water. According to the findings of scientists commissioned by perma-trade, the effect of physical water treatment is nowhere near as persistent in hot water as in cold water. In fact the effect disappears rapidly, particularly also as a result of undirected magnetic fields (e.g. of the circulating pump) and temperature fluctuations. To optimise the effect also in circulated hot water, it is necessary to install an additional small unit on the delivery side of the hot-water circulating pump. The two units for combined treatment of hot and cold water in one-family homes and houses for up to 10 flats are available at a low-budget package price. 

The perma-trade assurance guarantee Our guarantee, plus the research results of Professor Dr. Frahne and Professor Dr. Kronenberg, gives buyers the assurance that they are installing a highly effective physical water treatment system. Provided that the perma-trade installation instructions are observed, the following performance is guaranteed:

  • Hard scale deposits are greatly reduced by perma-trade systems.
  • Existing scale deposits are progressively dissolved or at least stopped, depending upon the kind of incrustation.
  • Only a very thin scale covering is formed in new water pipes, and this is useful as it helps to prevent corrosion.
  • Rusty water is virtually completely eliminated, provided that the stipulated pipe rinses are strictly observed.

Equipment Guarantee: 5 years, commencing with the date of installation. In the event of any proven technical defects established during this period (e.g. a grave reduction of the magnetic field strength, defective water conducting pads), then the equipment causing the complaint will be replaced free of charge. Our devices are particularly suited for

Our devices are particularly suited for

  • Water as from the hardness range 2 (> 7 dH)
  • pH-value between 6.5 and 9.5
  • Iron content up to 0.3 mg/1
  • Sulphate share up to 300 mg/1
  • Water temperature up to 90C

The permasolvent was hitherto uniquely subjected to comprehensive scientific efficiency tests over a period of 3 years by the research team headed by Professor Dr. Frahne in the Steinbeis Centre in Reutlingen, Germany. The test results confirmed the effects established in practice. (Published in ,Energieanwendung", No. 40/91 and sbz No. 18/93).
