FAQ – Your questions, our answers

Water is a complex and variable element – it varies in composition, mineral content, pH, conductivity, temperature and flow behaviour depending on region and use. There are therefore no universal answers, only individual solutions.

If your question is not answered in our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ), we will be happy to help you personally.

1. Limescale becomes softer and easier to remove
Normally, evaporated water causes stubborn limescale deposits that are difficult to remove. With the Sialex®️Ring, however, the limescale remains looser and less sticky.
In areas such as shower heads, aerators, toilet bowls and taps, limescale is much easier to remove with a damp cloth.
Water outlets remain clear for longer as loose limescale particles are simply flushed out the next time water is used.
2. Less limescale on surfaces
Test the effect on mirrors, tiles, shower walls or taps:
Clean the surfaces at the start of the trial.
Spray them with a little water and let it evaporate overnight.
The next day, the limescale should be easier to remove by hand or with a damp cloth – you will notice the difference.
3. Water feels softer
Although the measured water hardness remains the same, the water can feel softer and more pleasant – especially when washing your hands and showering*.
* Perception may vary depending on the source water.
4. Use less detergent, shower gel and cleaning products
Treated water disperses detergents and cleaning products better, so you need less to achieve the same cleaning performance.
This is particularly noticeable in the lather:
Showering and shampooing lathers faster.
In the washing machine or dishwasher, a reduced amount of detergent is often enough to achieve the same cleaning result.
Our tip: gradually reduce the amount of fabric softener, shower gel, shampoo and chemical limescale removers you use – and test the optimal dosage.
5. Less stubborn limescale in kettles & boiling water appliances
Limescale tends to build up in appliances that use high temperatures (e.g. kettles).
With Sialex®, the limescale remains looser, so deposits can be reduced.
Tips for keeping your kettle clean:

Pour out the remaining hot water immediately after use.
Then fill the kettle with 2 cm of cold water and let it stand.
This will cool the kettle and loosen any limescale deposits.
Before the next boil, pour out the cold water and briefly wipe the base with a sponge.
This will keep your kettle free of stubborn limescale for years to come – without the need for chemical descaling agents!

For domestic use, the Sialex®️Ring should ideally be installed directly behind the water meter. This ensures optimum distribution of the physical effect throughout the domestic water system.

Important installation instructions
The ring can be installed on any pipe material – metal, plastic or mixed installations.
Preferably the ring should be installed on metal pipes, if present.
Electrical power sources should be at least 50 cm away to avoid possible discharge of the ring.
Please refer to the detailed installation instructions supplied with the product.

Maintenance and consumables
No consumables required – Sialex®️Ring operates without electricity, regeneration salts or filters.
Maintenance free – No regular maintenance is required.
Durable & Reliable – There are no wearing parts to replace.

Install once – benefit for life.

For larger buildings or more complex installations, it may be necessary to use additional or more powerful rings – especially if there are several main pipes or widely ramified piping systems.

✔ Installation – If you wish, we can install it for you.
✔ Easy self-installation – The Sialex®️Ring can be easily installed by yourself thanks to the detailed installation instructions provided.
✔ No need to cut into the water pipe – No need to disconnect the pipe, no need to rebuild, the ring is simply placed around the pipe.

Installed in minutes – No hassle and no extra cost.

✔ All minerals are retained – no important ingredients are removed.
✔ No additives or chemicals – the water remains natural and unchanged.
✔ Complies with the Drinking Water Ordinance (TVO) – still safe for drinking and everyday use.

Some customers also report a subjective improvement in taste. However, this is individual and not measurable.

Healthy water – unchanged, but with noticeable benefits.

🔹 Scientific evidence and many years of experience confirm the effect – even after 8-10 years the Sialex®️Ring has been shown to be fully effective.
🔹Physically based – works through effects such as harmonic resonance, phonons and interference.
🔹Material with high storage capacity – The ring is made from aluminium with a silicon content, a proven semiconductor material also used in electronics.

If, after many years, you find that limescale deposits are becoming more difficult to remove, the Sialex®️Ring can be regenerated in our factory and ‘recharged’ with new vibrational energy. It will then continue to work reliably for many years to come.

Durable, efficient and regenerative – a sustainable solution for your water treatment.

✅ One-off purchase cost – no ongoing fees
✅ No additional costs for installation, consumables or maintenance
✅ Permanent effect without electricity or chemicals

One time investment – long term benefits.

🔹Customised analysis before installation
Before installation, our experts will work with you to develop a customised solution that takes into account factors such as water temperature, ingredients, pipe lengths and operating processes.

🔹Clear expectations & measurable results
The effects of the Sialex®️Ring can be monitored using specific control parameters, including
✔ Extended maintenance intervals
✔ Reduced downtime
✔ Improved energy efficiency
✔ Reduction of limescale deposits and rust

🔹Testing & project planning
We offer you the opportunity to test the Sialex®️Ring in real conditions as part of a trial. We will work with you to develop an initial project plan that is tailored to your facility.

🔹Existing limescale is gradually dissolved and washed out of the pipes by the normal flow of water.
🔹New limescale deposits are prevented because the limescale remains in the water in a less adhesive form and no longer adheres to pipe walls or equipment.

This process is continuous and chemical-free, improving the long-term efficiency of pipes, heat exchangers and water-bearing systems.

🔹Individual site assessment
The exact installation position will be determined based on your operational requirements and plant structure. A prior analysis of the conditions is recommended to achieve the best possible effect.

🔹Be aware of electrical voltage sources
To avoid possible discharge of the ring, electrical power sources should be at least 100 cm away. Detailed installation instructions can be found in our industrial installation guide in the download area.

🔹Use multiple rings for optimum performance
Many industrial applications require the use of multiple Sialex®️ rings at critical points, especially in complex piping systems or systems with high flow velocities and voltage influences.
