Dealing with scale in my home boiler showed me why water treatment matters

I was cleaning out my home boiler and found a bunch of scale buildup. It hit me that I never thought about water treatment before, even though we always talk about it on the job. Now I add a descaling agent regularly, and the efficiency is much better. Just a small thing that makes a big difference.

lol my friend had the same thing happen. Their boiler started making this weird clunking noise, and they found it was full of scale. They figured out the water treatment thing and said it runs way better now too.

Oh jeez, scale issues are such a pain. Sounds like they handled it well.

My buddy's water heater in Austin got so clogged with gunk it sounded like a jackhammer. They used some descaling stuff and cleared it right out.
