Conforme aux attentes
Le coli a été livré en deux jours, et est parfaitement emballé, pas de dégât constaté à l'ouverture du paquet. je recommande cet adoucisseur bien moins cher que dans certaines enseignes reconnues. Pour le résultat concernant l'adoucissement de l'eau, à voir après utilisation.

Was exceptional value for money
This is a comparatively high-end water-softener which I purchased through Amazon in February 2013 for under £350. It has a 15-litre resin tank and a flow-rate capable of dealing with the needs of a directly connected household of up to 4 people at a hardness of 300 ppm (e.g. Megaflow and mains cold taps). I decided to fit it only to the feeds to the hot water cylinder and washing machine but leave the cold taps and loo cisterns on hard water. I am certain the flow rate would cope with both but there seemed no point in flushing the loo with softened water.My unit came with 3/4" BSP fittings but had two 3/4"-15mm couplings for use if you need them. (I chose to plumb my unit in with 22mm pipes, valves and connectors.) Installation and set-up is fairly simple. They offer an installation video. (but I hope I made a better job of it than they did...)The unit is very effective; reduced my water hardness from 300ppm to "SOFT" according to the B&Q hardness testing kit. Hopefully, over time, the scale in my hot tank, taps, shower mixer and pipework will gradually dissolve; at least the problems won't get any worse.Here are some tips:1)It is worth noting that the tables for hardness settings in the manual are based upon an average consumption of 100 litres per person per day. UK average is 150 litres (and we use more than that) - so adjust your Regeneration Capacity setting accordingly.2)The paper manual and the installation video disagree about the Backwash, Brine and Rinse times. Latest online manual says Rinse 5 minutes brine 20 minutes, rinse 5 minutes and refill 6 minutes. This seems to work OK and does not waste too much water.3)The first screen you see after holding down the "Menu" key for 5 seconds is the status screen. At the bottom of the screen is a counter that counts down in 10 litre decrements from your Regeneration Capacity setting until it hits zero; when it reaches zero it will execute a regeneration cycle at the next opportunity. When you set the Regeneration Capacity, it sets that value into the status screen regardless of what was there before - so you should make any changes on the morning after a regeneration cycle.4)Manual regeneration has to be done as per the website: [...]5)Take care when pulling the top off the unit. It is held on by four fragile-looking lugs.UPDATE 2.5 years on...The small turbine that activates the Hall-effect sensor has two small magnets pressed into each side. These tend to rust and the turbine sticks. If you find that the the unit is not producing soft water, check that the regeneration counter is going down. If not, you can do the following:1 dismantle the bypass valve assembly from the unit2 remove the pepper-pot end on the outlet3 with long-nosed pliers, pull out the turbine retaining ring (it is only pushed in)4 carefully file the rust off the magnets and leave the turbine to dry overnight5 apply a thin coat of nail varnish to the magnets and6 reassemble in reverse order.

Notice a ameliorer
Produit tout a fait correct pour son prix.La notice pourrait etre plus claire, et ce n'est pas un problème de traduction.Je ne comprends toujours pas la différence de programmation concernant la régénération entre le volume (resultante d'un calcul réalisé sur le site de W2B) et/ou le nombre de jours entre chacune des régénérations.J'imagine que lorsque le premier des 2 termes est atteint (volume ou nb de jours), un cycle de régénération s'effectue.Enfin, ce qui me semble aussi très important, nous sommes passé d'une eau de 27 TH à 5/6 TH....Fini le calcaire ou tartre 😊.En comptant sur la fiabilité de ce produit.
