Siegloch: Doctor Achtnich You are a cell biologist and
have worked a lot in Switzerland with water decalcification. Can electricity be used to decalcify water?
Achtnich: Sure, that works very well.
Then there is only some lime dust left in the water, which can be easily wiped away from shower walls (for example).
Siegloch: But now I have read about tests on the Internet, who call the procedure completely ineffective.
Achtnich: That's right, there are many tests on the Internet, which show that the (procedure) is not working.
But these are devices developed a long time ago. Some of them,
are magnetically active. A lot of things change since then.
Siegloch: What happened?
Achtnich:: Since then, equipment was developed, that works with electric fields that
Treat the water intensively and thus make the lime harmless und sure it doesn't stick to the pipes anymore.
Siegloch: So electric ... stronger electric Felder, but that could worry a lot of people, couldn't it?
Electricity, water and pipes - isn't that dangerous?
Achtnich: No, it's not dangerous. We are in a completely different area.
These are not large radiations that are generated here. And above all, all the equipment, it's tested to the usual standards,
that are on the market in the meantime (so now), they are all good.
Siegloch: Did I understand you correctly? So lime stays in the water? Is that healthy?
Achtnich: Yes, that's very good. We do not change the water at all with such a method
and that's why we all have minerals, that we still need in the water.
Siegloch: The alternative would be to put salt into the water, to bind the lime. What does the microbiologist say?
Achtnich: Yeah, that's not good from my point of view, because we accumulate the bacteria in these devices over time
and which are then given out again and again and the water is actually contaminated.
Siegloch: So this means that you have to maintain these devices (with salt) more often. What is the difference between the maintenance costs?
Achtnich: Yes, so the newer devices (PHASIS) that run on electricity They don't need to be maintained at all.
On the other hand, all the devices that work with salt, you have to care for them regularly, you should clean them hygienically
and salt must be added regularly to these machineryc.
Siegloch: Can you make these electrical devices yourself in his basement or is that dangerous?
Achtnich: Yes, it depends on the situation in the basement. You can install it yourself, it's easy to do that,
if you consider certain things. And that is why it is sometimes worthwhile to consult a specialist.
Siegloch: Thank you very much Doctor Achtnich!
Achtnich: Thanks a lot!
