CO₂ is injected into the water line. It reacts with calcium carbonate (limescale) to create calcium bicarbonate, which stays dissolved and doesn't stick to pipes.
Absolutely. SoluCalc uses food-grade CO₂. Water stays potable and healthy.
No. Once installed and properly set, it runs without maintenance. Only the CO₂ bottle needs annual replacement.
No. The CO₂ dose is minimal and doesn't make the water fizzy.
Yes. Users report fewer skin issues, less dryness, and shinier hair.
Yes. Treated water lathers better and reduces the need for cleaning products.
Technically, no. SoluCalc does not remove calcium from water. It transforms it into a non-scaling form. Hardness (°f) remains the same, but the effects of limescale disappear.
A certified installer can handle it in ~2 hours. Your own plumber can also do it with basic instructions.
Around €29–49, depending on bottle size and provider. Typically replaced once a year.
Yes. SoluCalc is compact and fits right after the water meter.
Yes. Bicarbonates are naturally present in many mineral waters and aid digestion.
Yes. Use the "curative mode": increase CO₂ pressure by 1 bar for 1 month. This dissolves old deposits inside the system.
CO₂ is injected into the water line. It reacts with calcium carbonate (limescale) to create calcium bicarbonate, which stays dissolved and doesn't stick to pipes.
Yes. The reaction remains stable up to 95°C, including for water heaters and boilers.
SoluCalc reduces pH by only 0.5 units, which is safe for pipes. After 10+ years of use, no corrosion issues have been reported.
Yes. SoluCalc was tested by the CSTC (Belgian construction research center), which concluded its performance is comparable to salt-based softeners set to 15°f.
Absolutely. SoluCalc uses food-grade CO₂. Water stays potable and healthy.
Not at all. The taste remains completely natural.
Yes. Users report fewer skin issues, less dryness, and shinier hair.
No. Once installed and properly set, it runs without maintenance. Only the CO₂ bottle needs annual replacement.

Yes. SoluCalc is compact and fits right after the water meter.
Yes. It requires a standard 220V power outlet.
