Hard water affects 17m UK households and could be adding £500 or more to their annual energy bills, with an additional £500 per year being spent on unnecessary detergents and cleaning products.
Fitting a sustainable water conditioner to your home’s water supply could save you on average 25% on your energy bills at today’s prices, and when prices rise again October you could save even more.
Households supplied with hard water suffer from limescale build-up on appliances, fixtures and fittings.
While those living in a hard water area are likely to notice limescale build-up in the kettle and on taps, it’s harder to detect harmful limescale deposits in the washing machine, dishwasher and boiler.
It’s the limescale in these appliances, especially the boiler, that has the biggest impact on energy bills, causing them to be at least 25% higher than necessary.
Limescale build-up reduces the efficiency of heating elements meaning they have to work harder and use more energy to be effective. This not only increases energy bills but damages appliances, leading them to break down more frequently. If you live in a hard water area you can expect to replace your boiler, dishwasher and washing machine up to twice as often as a result of limescale damage.
While there are many limescale treatments available, they typically use harsh chemicals which are then washed down the drain and into the watercourse, and that’s bad news for the environment. However, by treating hard water as it enters the home with a sustainable water conditioner which does not use any salts or chemicals, research suggests that households can expect to see a significant reduction in their energy bills and their detergent usage, saving up to £1,000 a year.
Installing a Halcyan Water Conditioner will not only prevent new limescale from forming in your home but will also remove existing limescale in your system for 30 years!

Simply put, our system is made from a special blend of 12 metals that create our unique alloy. This alloy is cast into a solid core of turbulence-producing fins and gateways. It’s this turbulence and repeated contact with the alloy that changes the molecular structure of the minerals in the water as it flows through. Crucially, this alters the state and structure of Calcium Carbonate so that it loses its ability to cling to surfaces such as your household’s boiler, showerheads, kettle and taps.
Of course, the water still retains all its mineral goodness – and the things that make water ‘water’ – but the limescale threat is neutralised so you benefit from reduced energy consumption and lower bills.
