Limescale Protection for Condominiums and Apartment Buildings

In a condominium, limescale affects the shared areas and every apartment. LIMPEO installed on the rising main protects the entire building.

The limescale problem

In many countries, 80% of households are supplied with hard water (above 15°f). Limescale builds up in pipes, on heating elements and inside appliances, causing:

  • Increased energy consumption — +7% per mm of scale on heating elements (learn more)
  • Reduced lifespan of appliances by 30 to 50%
  • White stains on taps and surfaces (the 5 warning signs)
  • Dry skin and dull hair (learn more)

The LIMPEO solution

LIMPEO, designed by MAGIIC SAS, uses controlled-frequency electromagnetic waves to transform calcite into aragonite. Aragonite microcrystals do not deposit — they simply flow away with the water.

  • reduction in limescale — scientifically validated
  • 0 chemicals, no salt — water retains its minerals
  • 0 maintenance for a minimum of 10 years
  • Installation in 10 minutes, no plumber required, no water shut-off
  • 25% energy savings

FAQ

Does LIMPEO protect the whole building?

Yes. Installed on the main water inlet or rising main, LIMPEO protects the entire installation: pipes, water heaters, showers, taps and appliances in every unit.

Is installation really straightforward?

Yes. LIMPEO installs in 10 minutes without cutting pipes and without a plumber. Simply clamp it around the incoming water pipe.

How long before you see results?

The preventive effect is immediate (no new deposits form). Existing deposits become brittle and are easily cleaned away within 2 to 8 weeks depending on their thickness.

Frequently asked questions

Does a LIMPEO need to be installed in every unit of the building?
No. Installed on the main water line, that is the building's main water inlet, LIMPEO protects the entire system: shared areas and every unit, pipes, water heaters, showers and faucets. A single device is enough for the whole building.
Does installation in a multi-unit building require a plumber and shutting off the water?
No. LIMPEO installs in 10 minutes with no plumber and without shutting off the water: you simply clamp it around the incoming water pipe, with no need to cut into the pipework. Convenient for a building where shutting off the water would affect every resident.
Does the LIMPEO treatment require regular maintenance by the property manager?
No. LIMPEO works maintenance-free for a minimum of 10 years, with no chemicals or salt to refill. It works through electromagnetic waves that transform limescale into aragonite, which flows away with the water instead of building up.
