YARNA Capacitive Electronic Water Descaler System: A Solution for Hard Water Issues

James Sandberg: Easy to Install, and the softening is noticable. Too early to tell if it has longevity, but so far it performs as advertised. Time will also tell if it does retroactive restoration to years of hard water build up.

jeannette: We haven't noticed anything different yet. We still have hard water stains :( Not sure if, this is the best one for us.

Amy M. Long: We have lived in our home for about 12 years and have horrible issues with hard water. We replaced all of the faucets in our home when we moved in and within months started seeing mineral deposits all over our new faucets. Over the years, we have toyed with having a water softening system installed, but every time we got an estimate we decided it was cheaper to just replace the faucets every few years than to spend the thousands of dollars on a system.
Last July, I saw this product on Amazon and was intrigued. My husband and I both thought there was no way it could do the job it claimed, but with the option of free returns we figured it couldn't hurt to give it a try. Installation was super easy and we were able to attach it right where the water enters the house, so it would work for the whole house. And then we waited. And waited. And now it's been a year. I never noticed the water tasting different, or feeling different, or our soap being more sudsy. What I did notice is that the faucets we replaced after installing this device show absolutely no signs of build up. I wish we had tested our water before we installed it so that I could see some physical evidence of it working,...

Hans Solo: BOTTOM LINE:
After 3 years... still working strong!
Tremendous time-saver and money saver on continually replacing salt weekly to monthly! Customer support is fine also!

My first interest in this were the reduction of unnecessary chemicals (salt), the cost and time savings as well as the technology. We have very hard water. The TDS (total dissolved solids) is extremely high. Lots of calcium precipitation with this or the salt-water treatments.

Installation location on incoming city water pipe: We installed our Yarna unit before the house water shutoff valve and connected the cord to a standard wall outlet in the basement. We did not use an extension cord. We have unplugged and reinstalled the wrapping coils at least once as we wanted a tighter fit than we initially had.

Hot Water Heater to Navien A2: We had an old 60 gallon hot water heater that we replaced with a Navien A2 unit after about 1.5 years of using the Yarna unit. Both are were in our basement installed just below the kitchen. The Navien has a pre-filter so after a year we had it serviced. There were some slivers of calcium buildup in the pre-filter which we removed. There has been no negative...

Stuart K.Stuart K.: I was very skeptical about this working to reduce the scale on my water fixtures.
I’m in Jacksonville Fl and the city supplied water is very hard with lots of scale.
The sink faucets would develop a considerable crust.
I do not have any type of water softener installed.

After using this for 17 months I can say I have considerably less scale build up.
Is it perfect? No but worth the purchase? Yes!

I would love to see how this is working for the inside of the water heater but I live by the montra If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. On the other hand the elements usually get very crusted and burn out and yet they are still working…..

laf: We r on city water, but I noticed an aftertaste. Our coffee pot filter would build up a white powder. Since installing the unit, it almost immediately made a difference. The water tastes better & the powdery substance does not appear. I think showering feels different too.
I'll continue to monitor & report changes.

Steves_Reviews: There are a TON of reviews on this and by and large here is mine:
- Simple to install, in fact it seems almost to easy but it just is
- Has reduced the hard water spotting we used to have on the chrome fixtures (not eliminate them)
- Water is NOT softer, which is what they tell you. It will smooth out the structure of the mineral so it will reduce the buildup and that is the goal with this device
- I didn't want a salt brine to have to deal with nor the big bags of salt and the added expense of installation
- Other users, at least 94% + like the system and of course there are those who have tried it and for some reason didn't work, but the percentage is simply too high to not give it a try.
- Our home is central Canada, very hard water (and added nasty chemicals), so this was installed to help add life to our hot water system and reduce the mineral deposits on the fixtures, mission accomplished there.

Cons:
- Power cord could be longer, perhaps a 10' cord as it's super light and takes up little space in the package
