Mineral Scale

Mineral scale refers to the buildup of minerals, often calcium and magnesium, that occurs on surfaces in contact with water, such as pipes, heaters, and boilers. This scale typically forms when hot water evaporates, leaving behind mineral deposits that can create blockages and reduce efficiency. It is commonly seen in households as limescale in kettles or on faucets. Regular maintenance and descaling agents can help remove this buildup and prevent damage to plumbing systems, ensuring better performance and longevity of appliances.
