Do *NOT* Buy An Eddy Electronic Water Descaler Until You Read This

The chemical composition of your water will not change. Instead it changes the way your water reacts with pipes and equipment. This is achieved through the use of electromagnetism. Also, although the Eddy mimics the outcomes of a water softener it does not alter the total dissolved solids (TDS) of water. This means that everything in your water (both good and bad) will remain.
