Collection: Limescale removal

Limescale on your taps and in your kettle?

  • A bathroom that feels dull again after just a few months
  • Endlessly descaling your coffee machine
  • A thought we often push aside: what is actually in my water?

H2Ot solves that — with systems that do exactly what you need, no more and no less.

How ZeNO works

ZeNO softens water through salt/resin ion exchange — the same proven technology that leading brands rely on. The unit exchanges the limescale particles in your water using a specially calibrated resin. For as long as you use ZeNO, your water stays free of limescale.

The water flows from top to bottom through the ion exchange resin, which is enclosed at the top and bottom between two extra-fine filters (100 µm filter mesh, see image). This prevents the 'dead zones' of a traditional softener — where part of the resin always stays inactive — and so delivers ZeNO's high efficiency and substantial salt savings.

ZeNO — Water softener

ZeNO works by ion exchange — the method that really works, not the weak magnetic solutions that make little to no difference. The system cleans itself: you top it up with salt 2 to 3 times a year.

ZeNO comes in different sizes and versions, with optional extras — all within the same product. As standard, ZeNO removes limescale up to 100%; optionally, you set the water hardness yourself, matched to your usage and the characteristics of your source water, instead of completely limescale-free.

ZeNO is always installed where the water enters your home, so it treats every water point in the house — it is never a unit for a single tap. Want to get more out of it? Connect SorCA and ViruLEX to your ZeNO: together they give you more than limescale-free water alone.

ZeNO comes in the right size for every home, villa (with swimming pool, sauna or jacuzzi) or hospitality volume — always at the main water supply. For a single coffee machine or vending machine in hospitality, there is the ZeNO + SorCA hospitality cartridge.

  • 60% less salt. 66% less water.

    When regenerating, ZeNO uses up to 60% less salt and up to 66% less water than a standard water softener. Very few softeners achieve that.

    Even more important: you decide how hard your water stays. You set how much hardness you want to keep yourself, for example 2 or 4 °dH, or another value. Going all the way down to 0 °dH is of course always possible too.
