does it remove mineral deposits?

It is an ultra fine powder. It seems to remove everything. After scrubbing the inside of my frying pan I have to season it again. IT JUST WORKS!

Not sure. It works well on cooking residue, on stove tops or pots and pans. Worth a try. I like BAR KEEPER'S FRIEND, keep it around all the time. I'd try a small paring knife to clean out mineral deposits from around faucets.

I live in an area with extremely hard water and have a few plastic and stoneware pieces that seem to be a magnate for mineral deposited when washed in the dishwasher. Since I keep a can of this for my stainless cookware under my sink, I gave it a go on those pieces and was simply amazed at how easily the buildup just dissolved away.

Its great on my pasta pots that have boiled over and left salt and hard water stains. With this stuff and a little effort your things will look new again.

I assume you mean calcium carbonate from hard water. When I use Bar Keepers, it makes the stainless steel look like new. So, I would assume it removes mineral deposits because I live in an area where the water is full of calcium carbonate which causes all kinds of plumbing problems. I usually have to replace my faucets every 3 years because of the corrosion. However, I've been using this cleanser since my pans were new, so if you are asking if it will remove deposits that have been on your pans for years, I don't know if it will.

My filtering out the chorine, it definitely softens as well though I don't know if it claims to do that. We still use a water softener for the mineral issue.

It doesn't remove all the minerals, but it is much softer then most water. I think it will take much longer time for humidifier to build up as I have the same problem with my tea pot - residue. It took much longer time for the residue to be seen then with other water.

Yes it removes tarnish and helps to prevent future tarnish. Your mileage may vary

None of the cartridge filters remove TDS. If you want that, you need reverse osmosis.It's a choice. Some people don't want to remove minerals, just organics and lead, some do.

Yes. It removes everything. It reduces TDS to zero. Be aware that this water is NOT suitable for drinking. It is intended for special decontamination situations such as saltwater aquariums.

Remove would not be the correct description. It will reduce dissolved minerals in the 70 to 95% range. So if you start with very high dissolved solids for example and iron sulfide is one of the dissolved salts there will still be some left. That said, when you smell iron you are really smelling H2S being liberated by iron reducing bacteria in the water supply system. The carbon filter in this device will remove that to below detection level.

Hello Yuki, The Aquasana AQ-5300 filter system effectively removes mercury, lead, and asbestos. The company does not test for other heavy metals. The filters do not remove potassium, calcium, or magnesium. The system's carbon filter also removes many organic compounds, which are listed in their literature. Please see their web site for more details: http://www.aquasana.com/product_detail.php?product_id=51 We like our filter, which we purchased to improve the flavor of our morning coffee. This system does not replace a water softener. Sincerely, Robert Ashton, MD, PhD

To much iron in the water gives it a rust color. If this is what you mean, then it should. The product description says it removes harmful minerals. Most particulate filters will remove iron color from the water, and this is a much better filter.

It does appear to remove sulphur, but our levels may not be the same as yours. This is a very easy and simple filter to install and change. I would not recommend as a replacement for a salt-based system, but rather as a secondary filter.

Yes. It will remove anything thats on metal. Even works on powder coats and bedliner. Probably also works on undercoats.

I am not sure. We have well water with a high iron/rust content and my hair is blonde. It does help remove the minerals and build up in my hair as well as leave it somewhat able to brush.

Can't help with that question. I use it to polish plastic motorcycle helmet face shield and plastic sun glasses. I doubt it would remove mineral deposits in a shower but maybe water spots.

This is a great glass cleaner, but it is not a lime and scale remover. So if you have hard water and mineral deposits, this probably won't do the job. But if you want clean glass, this is the best stuff I have found.

No, just sediment. Just like you couldn't run salt water thru it and get fresh water. The minerals are dissolved into the water and require a conditioner with lots of media and surface area. This is what I have to remove dissolved iron, manganese, and calcium. Expect to spend $1K-$2K + install. The media will last 4-6 years and they auto back flush themselves.

So sorry, but I cannot answer that as I live in the mountains. This shampoo is formulated to remove metals and minerals present in your water.

No, you just drop it in the upper right corner of the tank. It's colorless and it slowly dissolves minerals in the water to keep it looking clear in the toilet bowl. I use a similar product for my water softener that's a powder and you add it to the salt reservoir every month and during regeneration it runs through the mineral tank and cleans it out. Keeps it working at peak efficiency.oldtechuser
