Introduction
How does the Quooker Scale Control Plus work?
The Scale Control Plus reduces the hardness of the water in order to prevent limescale build-up
in the tank. This extends its lifespan and improves the taste of the water. The Scale Control Plus
consists of a lter head and a cartridge, which is inserted into the head. This cartridge softens the
water that ows through it by means of an ion exchanger. The cartridge must be replaced after
a certain period of time, which depends on the mains water hardness and how much Quooker
water is used. Replace the cartridge before it becomes completely saturated.
Installing the Quooker system for the rst time
Using the installation manual, rst install the Quooker tank and connect it to the tap. Then use the
manual to install the Scale Control Plus.
When the Scale Control is to be replaced by a Scale Control Plus
Please note: the Scale Control Plus should be installed before the inlet combination valve. It is
therefore important to follow the instructions as shown in this installation manual.
Lifespan of the cartridge
The Scale Control Plus cartridge needs to be replaced regularly. The replacement frequency
depends on how hard the water is and how much water is used. Timely replacement of the
cartridge prevents the deposition of limescale in the Quooker system. For Quooker systems
installed after October 2017, the included Scale Control Plus Meter can be installed. The Scale
Control Plus Meter provided sounds an alarm signal when the cartridge needs to be replaced.
Before mounting the meter, use the test kit provided to determine the total water hardness, as
described in Part A. After doing so, mount the Scale Control Plus Meter and connect it to the
Quooker tank, as described in Part E.
For Quooker systems installed before October 2017, it is not possible to use the Scale Control Plus
Meter supplied. The cartridge lifespan can be determined in a dierent way. Before installing the
Scale Control Plus, test the water hardness with the test kit provided. Part A of this guide features
detailed instructions on how to do this. With the help of this value, the service life of the cartridge
can then be determined on the basis of the hardness table supplied. See Part B.
