Hey you wanted to buy one, I'm just trying to help you out bud. This is the DIY section..... At the workshop they teach us DIY means "do it yourself"
Any window licking, helmet wearing, drooling kid on the short bus knows passing water through a couple of magnets isn't going to do anything.
I'll cut you a deal since I like you crusty......$90 and I'll put a PVC shell around it that says eco-aqualizer on it. Unless you like the

[hr]
version better.
Either way is cool, I'll even guarantee it for one year if you don't like it. I can also build custom multi stage units.

Not flaming here.... But.....
Magnets are generally placed in the middle of long runs of water pipe, near other fittings and valves.
They are placed there for metal debry not to break down organics.. Metal filings from valves, rust in the pipe or floating flakes get trapped on these magnets..
Let us know how it works out for you though..

Not true at all, as that would eventually create a blockage in the pipe...
The magnets actually create a form of harmonic distortion, thus breaking apart bonded molecules running between them.

I just don't know enough about this thing to say much.
I've seen magnetic water softeners before - and I thought they were designed to attract positive or negative ions, like calcium or magnesium or other ions in our water supplys.
I do know that the covalent and hydrogen bonds that bind a water molecule together are pretty strong.
Polar molecules like water tend to group together - sort of end to end - and that's why water acts the way it does.
I just don't know if our tankwater"crap" can get stuck inside the "buckeyball" like geometric structures, as this advertisement states.
But at this point, without further study and talking to a chemist, I would hesitate spending my money based soley upon the words of an ---- advertisement ( or their website for that matter ).
It seems possible, but unlikely that this thing can do what they say it will. That's my uneducated gut feeling at least.
 
I received the "ECO-Aqualizer" yesterday and immediately installed it...
I have had a problem with micro bubbles from the on-set, and as of now (24 hours later), the bubbles are nearly non-existent. I have no idea if there is any coorelation or not, but nothing else has changed in the past couple of weeks.
Only time will tell as to whether this thing actually does what they claim, but the sudden lack of bubbles is sure wierd... :eek:
If this thing does nothing more than help keep the bubbles to a minimum,to me, that alone is worth every penny of $80!
