will this prevent lime buidup ?

I live in an area that has high deposits of Calcium gypsum and who knows what all, and as of yet the only mineral deposits I have seen were in the filter when I change them. However, water jar that the Little rattles go into have shown no signs of build up. I Have been using our humidifier since the end of March of this year. So it appears it might be blocking some of the minerals in the water. I hope this helps. I marked I don't know. Good luck.

So far it has for me, but I have only been using it for a month and a few weeks now.

For mineral buildup, I use a capful of this (available on Amazon) and it appears to work: Holmes Lime Scale Treatment Solution for Humidifiers, S1705PDQ-U

No it won't. It prevents the growth of living things only, has nothing to do with minerals.

No, it does not! Protec keeps the water clean! But I filter my water thru a PUR filter and my Calcium and other mineral build-up is non existent now!

I don't think you can prevent it. After a few weeks time, the tackiness will wear off.

I did not try to squeeze limes, but I can tell you that I have a big one for oranges, and squeezing a lemon in the big orange one does not work. So the same probably applies to squeezing a lime in the lemon one. They do sell a metal lime squeezer.

I tried Key limes in this and it works well. I used an older cheaper unit as it was a lot smaller and I had the same results. Smaller limes that are in stores right now get juiced quite nicely in this. This really does a great job of getting the juice out of the lime.

No, it will not, it's designed to help with dings, or scrapes, or possibly a drop.

Deb, I can't answer your question however I read somewhere that adding lemon or lime juice to water will take care of the need.

Are you using distilled water only? Because some of are water is hard it causes lime or calcium buildup.

Not really, it only happened to me once,when I picked it up by the top rather quickly. I do lime mine very much. It is ideal for cutting small pieces . Hope this helps, enjoy your mat.

Put into a mesh media bag to keep it from going all over the place. After that it shouldn't affect anything other then your pH.

I would put in one on the incoming water main and one near the cold side of each water heater . The water heater is the thing that gets the worst lime build up and then your dish washer if you have one.

We have a short line to cespool on a very small tank and it keeps roots out good.We have to flush 2 times so on a long line you would have to put directly in tank or flsh more so it gets to tank and and does not stay in line.My 2 cents but ask Roebic lab there take.Fred.

Sure a reg spray bottle will work for a time . It may eventually gum up or the Citrus will effect some of the parts in the sprayer

I would not try to use this tool to spread lime. It does not have an adequate mechanism for agitating the lime to keep it flowing in my opinion.

Yes, but I would think a cleaner like used for lime deposits etc would work easier.

The spreader can be used to apply lime. We recommend a setting of 10 to apply 30 lbs per 1000 sq. ft.; a setting of 7.5, going over the area twice to apply 40 lbs. per 1000, and a setting of 7, going over the area three times to apply 50 lbs. per sq. ft.

I have never had ro do that, but I understand that a solution of white vinegar helps with lime deposits. If you do manage to clear the deposit, I'sd suggest switching to distilled water to prevent it happening again.

Solvents are microscopically smaller than paint material and such. It won't completely block it but it'll help a good deal.
