If you want to inhibit scale, there are only two ways to do it that
will definitely work:

a) Phosphor dosing unit like a Combimate. Costs about £100 to buy
and around £20 a year to run. It will stop scaling, but does not
soften the water.

Permutit version of phosphor dosing type is about £40 at B&Q. Even
combimates were more like £60 (IIRC) at
Glovers^H^H^H^H^HJayhards^H^H^H^H^HCity Plumbing

Oh, so they've come down then.

This makes the notion of using a electronic/magnetic device costing
the same or more something of a nonsense.
