What kills Hot Water Tanks?NeglectThe most dangerous enemy of the hot water heater is often the people who buy them and then forget about them. Leaks can develop over time and can slowly destroy a heater from both the inside as well as the outside.

Internal RustHot water tanks come from the manufacturer with sacrificial anodes installed to prevent them from rusting. The key word is “sacrificial” as these types of anodes get used up as they function. Once they are depleted to approximately 50% of their original size, the inside of the tank becomes vulnerable to corrosion. It’s worth pointing out here that water softeners often speed up the anode consumption. The sacrificial anodes depletion rates will vary based on water temperatures, amount of water passing it and the mineral contents in the water.

Sediment Build UpSediment build up inside the tank is typically made up primarily of limestone which is known to separate from the water with temperature and/or pressure change. It builds up on the bottom of the tank, elements, inlets and outlets. Scale build up requires extra energy to heat the water (increasing operating costs) while creating hotspots on the tank which speeds up the corrosion process on these spots.

High Water PressureThis is a hidden killer of hot water tanks and one that a lot of people wouldn’t suspect, much less test for. Pressure is maintained through two devices: a pressure gauge as well as a pressure relief valve.

The CPA SolutionInstallation of Power Anodes:Our anodes give your tank the maximum life expectancy with the least overall cost and disruption to hot water service by installing our ‘impressed current’ systemUnlike traditional sacrificial anodes, CPA power anodes do not need to be replaced or disrupt hot water service to the facilityOur power anodes create an electrical current within the tank that eliminates corrosion without any need for linings, additional maintenance, or water shut downsThe installation of a power anode will extend the life of the tank, guaranteed

Thorough Inspection of the tank – inside and outOur fully licensed plumbers, that have gone through specialized training, provide a complete inspection of your hot water tank and all of its components

Hot Water Tank CertificationAfter your tanks have been inspected and all the components have passed, a certificate will be mailed and an electronic version will be issued to you to forward to your insurance company

CPA Water ConditionerThe CPA Water Conditioner is a maintenance-free, eco-friendly, and cost efficient water treatment device that controls lime scale build-up and removes pre-existing lime scale. Using technology derived from years of research and development from a team of chemical engineers and scientists, CPA Systems are the most advanced chemical free water treatment system available today. Now, for the first time, this state-of-the art technology is now available for the Canadian market.

For the sake of convenience and profit North America over the years has become a throw away society.This way of life is doing tremendous damage to our planet!Did you know that of the over 7 million water heaters manufactured in 2012, over 85% were replacement tanks! That was 889 heaters sold every hour, and, of course, the numbers increase each year. The raw material, energy, and time that it takes to make, transport, install and recycle or dump all those heaters must be substantial by anyone’s measure.

Maintaining your hot water heater is important, but it’s a sadly neglected duty. Maintenance is a minimal cost, and can drastically improve the lifespan of your hot water tank!

for a lifetime!

Impressed-current anodes are not "sacrificial", so they are not consumed during use. They feed a very small amount of electricity into the tank to replace that produced by sacrificial anodes. The electrode is made of titanium. Interestingly, while sacrificial anodes are consumed more rapidly in softened water. Powered anodes actually work more efficientlybecause higher conductivity makes it easier for electricity to flow between anode and cathode (tank steel).

When the anode rod is in the hot water tank, the oxygen molecule wants to take two electrons from the anode rod or the tank. The anode rod gives up its two electrons quicker than the tank's metal and protects the tank from corrosion until it is depleted.

With CPA-Conditioner

CPA-Conditioner Provides chemical free protection against Limescale

REVOLUTIONARY BREAKTHROUGH. The CPA-Conditionersystem has a unique induction method that treats all of the water in your plumbing 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The system induces a low frequency signal that is pulsed several thousand times per second and propagated throughout your entire plumbing system. This electromagnetic signal reverses the charge on the minerals that are dissolved in the water.

THE ULTIMATE BOILER ROOM PROTECTION . CPA-Conditioner iscutting edge technology is far more effective than any other physical water treatment system on the market. Not only will the CPA-Conditionersystem eliminate Limescale from occurring in your equip., it will also remove existing build-up, increasing flow and efficiency.

The CPA-Conditioner signal travels throughout the plumbing system protecting the whole system even if the water isn’t flowing. The Patented signal uses the water as it’s conductor in the same way copper wire transmits power to electronics. Both hot and cold water lines are treated as the signal travels in both directions. Boilers, valves and hot water heaters are continuously protected.

The CPA-Conditioner signal travels throughout the plumbing system following the pipe work. The signal splits and divides as it encounters “T” fittings

Electronic coil devices simply apply a magnetic field which will not propagate throughout the plumbing system

Calcium & Magnesium ions in water form Limescale when water is heated. CPA-Conditionerprevents this by charging the ions which keeps them in solution so they wont adhere to pipework, appliances or equipment

Limescale reduces the efficiency and life expectancy of appliances and hot water equipment.

Prevent Limescale build up in your plumbing with the proven performance of a CPA-Conditioner
