Are you a plumber, heating engineer, or water treatment specialist in Belgium? SoluCalc, the 100% Belgian salt-free CO₂ water softening system, offers a unique partnership opportunity. This innovative system converts limescale into soluble bicarbonate, protecting installations without polluting discharge. In this article, discover how to become a certified SoluCalc installer, the advantages for your business, and everything you need to know to offer this ecological solution to your clients.
What Is a Certified SoluCalc Installer?
A certified SoluCalc installer is a qualified professional (plumber, heating engineer, or water treatment expert) specifically trained to install SoluCalc anti-limescale systems. The device injects food-grade CO₂ to neutralize scale without removing essential minerals from the water.
Installed directly after the water meter, it complies with current Belgian standards (CE, ACS for drinking water). The installer’s key responsibilities include:
- Precise and secure hydraulic installation.
- System adjustment based on flow rate and building consumption.
- Personalized advice to optimize efficiency.
By joining the network, you benefit from technical support and certification that strengthens your credibility with Belgian customers.
Why Offer SoluCalc to Your Clients in Belgium?
SoluCalc represents an ecological alternative to traditional salt-based water softeners. Instead of removing calcium, it transforms it through controlled CO₂ injection, preventing scale deposits without adding sodium.
For you as an installer, the advantages are substantial:
- Technical simplicity: No salt regeneration and no discharge of brine water – ideal for complying with Belgian environmental regulations.
- Fast installation: Less complexity on-site, improving profitability (up to 25% additional energy efficiency for boilers according to Buildwise tests).
- Ecological and cost-effective: Reduced operating costs for your clients (no salt to purchase) and attractive in a growing market – more than 20,000 satisfied installations in Belgium.
- Strong warranty: 5-year product warranty, with spare parts support.
This solution meets the growing demand in Belgium for sustainable water treatment, particularly in Wallonia and Brussels where water hardness levels vary.
How Long Does It Take to Install a SoluCalc?
Installing a SoluCalc system is fast and non-invasive: typically 1 to 2 hours, depending on the configuration of the water inlet. The system is installed directly after the main water meter and becomes operational immediately after calibration.
For professionals, this means more installations per day and optimized scheduling. No heavy equipment is required – a simple bypass is sufficient for maintenance.
Which Buildings Can Be Equipped with SoluCalc?
SoluCalc adapts to various needs in Belgium. Below is a clear overview of the main models:
- SoluCalc 1 inch model: Maximum flow rate of 5 m³/h. Ideal for apartments, single-family homes, and small residential buildings, with capacity up to 20–25 occupants.
- SoluCalc 2 inch model: Maximum flow rate of 20 m³/h. Suitable for residential complexes, community buildings, and large apartment blocks, supporting up to 100–200 occupants depending on consumption.
For larger projects, SoluCalc offers customized sizing with connection to multiple CO₂ cylinders. Contact us for a precise calculation tailored to your Belgian projects.
Efficiency Recognized by Experts
According to the Scientific and Technical Centre for Construction (CSTC/Buildwise), tests on CO₂ systems such as SoluCalc demonstrate performance equivalent to salt-based water softeners, with reduced environmental impact. CE and ACS certifications ensure compliance for drinking water applications.
Testimonials from Belgian users confirm extended lifespan of appliances (water heaters, washing machines) and reduced energy bills.
Curative Mode: An Advantage for Existing Installations
Beyond prevention, SoluCalc can be adjusted in curative mode to gradually dissolve existing limescale deposits. This protects heating elements and reduces buildup in already scaled pipes.
Ideal for older Belgian homes where limescale is a recurring issue, without requiring invasive renovation work.
