ANSWER TO QUESTION NUMBER 5
The Seisco can significantly reduce mineral deposits
but you need to understand how and why. Since water acts like an insulator
and doesn’t accept heat rapidly,
- mineral deposits are caused by a heating element
getting so hot that the heat can’t be transferred to the water
fast enough and so boiling occurs around the heating elements sheath.
That’s the same reason that you get deposits at the bottom of a
pan you use to boil water. This condition is common in tank heaters
when the element turns on full power and no water is flowing.
- The Seisco is unique in its patented technology,
which causes each its elements at all times to share equally
the heating load. This means that if you have four heating elements
and need to use 25% of your heaters heating capacity, the Seisco turns
on each of the four elements at 25% of their heating capacity. (Like
lights on a dimmer)
- All other tankless heaters will turn at least
One of the four elements on FULL POWER every time the heater
is used. Obviously the Seisco elements are each individually operating
cooler thus less chance for boiling.
- Additional boiling can occur when the heater is
turned off. When you turn your water off and the heater shuts off,
the heating elements are still much hotter than the water (latent heat)
and will add that heat to the water. In the case of the other tankless
water heaters the element that was on FULL will be extremely HOT when
the heater is turned off and literally boil additional minerals out
of the water virtually every time the heater is turned on and off.
