Is there a better way to heat up my geyser that uses borehole water? The area I live in has no reliable water unless you drill a borehole. Every three months I change out my copper elements in my geyser. I am just asking since it is a pain in the butt

    I assume that the issue is doe to hard water from the borehole - and so limescale buildup, which can quickly kill heating elements.

    I look after a few systems with this issue, and have installed water softeners to deal with it. There is some info here.

      Yes it is like a lime scale buildup, but also very corrosive.

      I will look into the water softener solution thank you
