Flat white- two shots always
Dorset- home of mad animals
I saw this in a field today, scruffy? I often look like this in the morning.
Sheep needs a comb
Then came to load the van and in the middle of the road two ducks getting into the spring thing. Lots of noise, had a job to take a picture as I was laughing so much.
Ducks getting it on.
Love Dorset
Wasting Money Heating Scale?
If your pipes and hot water cylinder have scale in (they have) then you are wasting money. In Dorset scale grows very quickly and it acts like a layer of insulation making your boiler run harder and longer and costing money.
A water softener removes the calcium solving the problem plus any scale that has built up over the years will slowly dissolve and run down the drain, getting your system clean and effecient
Keeping that softener clean
A new local customer called as her water softener was not working very well. On closer inspection we found that the salt tank was jammed with salt keeping the remaining block from doing its job- making brine. No brine no soft water.
So one clean and service later the customer had soft water back and was happy to find a local company that could help her out.
We mentioned while we were there that we could send her a service reminder if she wanted and that made her day.
Here is a short video showing how a softener can get clogged and the correct way to put the salt in.
Let's get in Right
Recently while delivering salt to a new customer they asked us to look at their new water softener as they did not feel the house had much water flow.
Looking in the boiler room we found some beautiful plumbing that had all gone wrong when they had got to the water softener. A really large water main had been reduced down to fit in a small domestic unit. The customer had 5 bathrooms and gym and a small water softener that just was not suitable.
Two days latter we had fitted a suitably sized unit with all the correct plumbing. When i tested the system, water flow had increased significantly. Infact the tap in the utility area had been giving 7 lt/min and now was producing 16lt/min. Hooray.
The softener that we put in was a Hague Maximizer which can give 90 Lt/min with incredible efficiency.
