Limes
You may remember this slogan from ads that promoted the means to fight the limescale. There are a number of products, including the common domestic ones. What is important is that it is not just a defect in beauty.
You probably suspect that the limescale is related to the minerals contained in the water. The blame is calcium, but also magnesium. In addition, it settles significantly more where hot water cools. No wonder, therefore, that the limescale suffers from electric and conventions for water heating. Boomers and other aids to heat water have the same problem. In bathrooms and toilets, the limescale is formed gradually, but much slower and unobtrusively. It is more visible thanks to the dirt, which sticks to the stone and is very poorly cleaned.
The limescale is not just unpleasant. In boilers, it can reduce the performance of the heating element by up to a fifth, which you can see especially on your wallet.
Although limescale is formed everywhere, the situation in places with very hard water is significantly impaired. In our country it is in the area of Český Brod and Tuchorazi. Because the hardness of water affects many appliances and household equipment, including heating system, sometimes it is necessary not only more frequent intensive removal and cleaning, but also the use of specific remedies containing softeners or installation of special water softening equipment.
How to clean the limescale deposits?
The combination of vinegar and baking soda is perfect. Both substances are acting on the limescale that help to remove it. The sparkling reaction is even more pronounced and helps to release stone. Pour a cup of vinegar into the toilet bowl and let it act for half an hour. Then add two tablespoons of baking soda and let it act for a quarter of an hour. Finally, scrub the bowl with a brush.
Citric acid works similarly. Its advantage is stronger concentration and higher efficiency. It is usually enough to pour a few tablespoons into the toilet and let it work overnight.
A surprising but well usable means is also Coca-Cola. It contains phosphoric acid, which can affect not only the enamel of your teeth, but also on scale. It disrupts, thus facilitating its removal.
If you would like to try sophisticated products that use the latest technologies, you can try nano cleaners. These cleaning products are not only efficient, but also leave the nano -layer on the mythy surface, thanks to which dirt and stone are harder to capture in the future.
