Troubleshooting

Reduced water flow.

Check the pipework for any blockages or restrictions. Ensure the Limebeater2 is installed in the correct flow direction. Verify that the flow rate is not exceeding 0.6 L/s.

Leaks at the compression fittings.

Tighten the compression fittings. If leaks persist, check the condition of the olives and replace them if necessary. Ensure the pipe is properly inserted into the fitting.

Scale still appearing in appliances.

Verify the water hardness. The Limebeater2 alters the structure of the scale, not removing it completely. Ensure that the unit is installed correctly and is appropriate for the water hardness level.
