*If you have new water pipes (not older than 2 month) you can switch to full power mode. It is important to use Half power mode with older pipes, so the WluX device can clean out all old lime scale from your pipes. Check faucets strains and shower head once a week and clean if necessary. After period of 3 month switch to the power mode what is advisable to your water hardness and enjoy soft water.
