3M™ Aqua-Pure™ Whole House Scale Inhibition Replacement Water Treatment Cartridge AP431, AP43111, Scale, 10/Case (This price is for a MOQ of 3 Cases of 10) SKU 7100051432

The 3M™ Aqua-Pure™ Whole House Scale Inhibition Replacement Water Treatment Cartridge AP431 for the AP430SS contains polyphosphates to bind calcium and magnesium hardness minerals, preventing them from precipitating out (or becoming a solid) and building up on metallic surfaces such as water heaters and plumbing fixtures like faucets, pipes and shower heads.

The overall design of our 3M™ Aqua-Pure™ AP430SS whole house scale inhibition water treatment system makes the 3M™ Aqua-Pure™ AP431 cartridge change-out easy for professionals, as well as end users. The 3M™ Aqua-Pure™ AP431 Whole House Scale Inhibition Replacement Cartridge is as easy to change-out as a light bulb. The scale inhibition system helps extend the life of downstream water-using appliances such as water heaters (standard and tank-less), clothes washers and dishwashing machines, as well as plumbing fixtures like faucets, pipes and shower heads by reducing scale build-up and corrosion.

How It Works
Polyphosphates in minute concentrations of 2-3 ppm, effectively help prevent scale build-up by inhibiting the deposition of hardness minerals onto metallic surfaces. Polyphosphates also helps prevent corrosion by forming a thin protective layer on the metal surface. The3M™ Aqua-Pure™ AP431 Scale Inhibition Replacement Cartridge is manufactured using FDA CFR-21 compliant materials* and is suitable for drinking and cooking water, and food applications.
