Introduction
How the Quooker Scale Control works
The Scale Control reduces the hardness of the water, preventing limescale from
building up within the Quooker tank. The Scale Control considerably lengthens
the lifespan of your Quooker and improves the taste of Quooker water.
The Scale Control consists of a cartridge within a pressure resistant container.
As water flows through the cartridge, water hardness is reduced by an ion-
exchange resin. The cartridge must be replaced after a certain period. This
period depends upon the volume of water passing through the Quooker and the
hardness of that water. For continuous optimum performance, replace the
cartridge at the end of the lifespan.
If no Quooker has previously been installed
First, we recommend you install your Quooker tank and tap using the Quooker
tank installation guide. Once this is installed, proceed with the installation of the
Scale Control using this guide.
Lifespan of the cartridge
The Scale Control cartridge must be replaced periodically, depending on the
hardness of your water and the volume of water used. Replacing your cartridge on
time prevents limescale build-up within up your Quooker system. The included
Scale Control meter sounds an alarm when the Scale Control cartridge
replacement is due. To set-up the meter, first determine your water hardness
with the total hardness test kit provided. Once this is done, setup the included
Scale Control meter and connect it to your Quooker tank.
