The 3 Vulcan effects
The scale also loses its ability to adhere to surfaces in the rest of the house, for example on shower walls and in sinks and basins.
2nd Vulcan effect: Vulcan gently sanitizes the water pipe system
Two simultaneous processes take place in untreated, hard water:
The Vulcan water treatment system interfers with the incrustation/natural resolving process balance, as the new crystal structures can no longer form deposits. The incrustations of the first process are thereby prevented. The natural lime resolving process now needs only to deal with "old", already existing incrustations and can effectively combat them. Thus scale is removed faster than it forms. The pipe is cleared of scale. The surplus carbonic acid dissolves the scale from scale. Gradually and carefully, all deposits are cleared away. A final, very thin layer of scale is not removed however, but remains in the pipe to act as a protective layer.
3rd Vulcan effect: Vulcan protects against rust damage and perforation
Copper and/or iron oxidation occurs in all pipes – especially in copper, iron or galvanized iron pipes– through contact with calciferous, aggressive water. These oxides seriously affect the pipe surfaces and lead to corrosion.
The patented Vulcan impulse technology generates an electrophoresis-effect which produces a protective metal-carbonate layer. According to the material of the pipe, this layer consists of copper-carbonate, iron-carbonate or zinc-carbonate and settles on all shiny metal surfaces. It protects the pipe from aggressive substances which could all lead to corrosion. With Vulcan your pipes are effectiely protected.
1st Vulcan effect: Vulcan stops scale deposits forming in pipes and appliances
Without the Vulcan water treatment, the lime in the water forms into bur-like crystals. The patented Vulcan impulse technology modifies the crystallization of calcium and magnesium using the natural process of electrophoresis. The crystals become smoother and rod-like and can no longer stick to each other. The lime is now washed away in the water as a fine powder. New deposits can no longer form in the pipes.The scale also loses its ability to adhere to surfaces in the rest of the house, for example on shower walls and in sinks and basins.
Two simultaneous processes take place in untreated, hard water:
- In the first process, scale incrustations result from lime crystals sticking to each other and then on to surfaces. This first process produces carbonic acid.
- During a second, simultaneous process, this carbonic acid breaks down the existing scale deposits. This is referred to as the "natural resolving process". Because the incrustation process is much faster than the natural resolving process the pipes’ diameter constantly decreases.

The Vulcan effects
These positive changes can be seen already after a few days following the installation of Vulcan:
The test: install the enclosed filter in your taps. You will quickly notice that they do not accumulate scale anymore. The lime in the treated water exists as a fine lime ‘dust’ which no longer collects on the filter. Nozzles and shower heads also stay clean. These should however, be wiped now and then with a damp cloth.
Shiny, smooth surfaces in the kitchen and bathroom again
Scale does not disappear completely from shower cubicles, sinks, tiles, taps and fittings. Because Vulcan does not alter the chemical composition of the water, the lime remains in the water. However, the lime ‘dust’ which now exists can be removed easily with a damp cloth. Notably less cleaning agent is needed and the use of harsh detergents can now be avoided.
Coffee machines, kettles, saucepans or egg boilers stay clean 3-5 times longer. In kettles, the water is first evaporated, the scale is left behind and the inside of the kettle can now be cleaned easily with a damp cloth. Tedious soaking in special solutions is no longer necessary. Sometimes the heating elements/heating surfaces may show areas of scale which, due to the extreme heat, start to burn in on itself. We therefore recommend you leave some water in the kettle each time to prevent this ‘self- baking’. The life-span of smaller household appliances is three to five times longer.
With Vulcan water treatment, the surface tension of the water is decreased, thus, the water feels softer and also behaves as if it were softener. In fact, because of the physical water treatment, the water feels softer. On contact with other agents the water also behaves as if it were softer. In fact, because the chemical composition is not altered, the degree of water hardness stays the same. You will see the positive changes in the water, for example when washing your hands or washing your hair – the same amount of soap or the same shampoo will lather noticeably more. You can therefore reduce the amount of washing detergents used. Often, the use of special additives can be completely avoided.
* Closed water heaters (electrical) up to 70º C product temperature have a layer of fine, soft lime on the inside and on the heating element. This coating does not need to be removed as it does not disturb the transfer of heat. Water heating appliances have a life-span of up to 3-times longer.
Heat exchangers for heating water need to be maintained much less frequently
Many of these observations can be noticed only a few days after installing Vulcan. Not all points mentioned will be equally as noticeable: water, depending on its location has a different composition and thus reacts differently.

In its original state, lime forms into bur-like crystals. These bur-like crystals hook on to each other and stick to all surfaces causing scale deposits to occur. The Vulcan treatment changes the structure of the lime crystals. The crystals are no longer bur-like, instead they have a more streamlined form. These mono-crystal rods are known as aragonite.
The rod-like, streamlined lime crystals can now no longer stick to each other and exist instead as single, loose crystals. A matter consisting of suspended particles is formed - like a fine powder – which is washed away with the water. When dry, the lime ‘dust’ can simply be wiped away.
The chemical composition of the water is not altered. The elements and minerals important for people, such as calcium and magnesium, remain in the water. Because nothing is changed chemically, the degree of water hardness also remains unchanged by the treatment. The minimal change to the structure of the crystals, however, means that lime is now washed away as harmless suspended particles.
