Sincerely, Anonymous Re: Magnetic Water 16Nov 16, 2010 10:29 am Awesome stuff there Redman I have received a bit on this but have deleted most of the links. Irrigation Association I think was one that did a run down or feature on it I think. I'll have a look at it more when I have more time and get some of the stuff happening here. Re: Magnetic Water 17Nov 16, 2010 11:41 am At 1st I thought that this was a crock. So I did some tinkering on the weekend with some suprising results. I have a steel water tank connected to the downpipes on a new house. I placed two steel poles into the water tank. One at the south end and the other at the north end of the tank. (The tank is a long slimline type). I then connected the north pole to a 12Volt to 110V inverter and earthed the south pole to MEN connection near the mains board. Finally, I taped 3 super magnets (neodymium) to the downpipe leading to the water tank. For the last 3 days now I have notcied that the water pressure has increased, the water itself seems clearer and most inportantly, the water level in the tank has hardly changed. I think I am onto something here. Over the next few weeks I am going to vary the position of the super magnets a little to see if this makes a difference. Re: Magnetic Water 18Nov 16, 2010 12:12 pm Can you also start using the tank water on a pot plant and use non magnetised water (?) on another? I am really interested in this I am thinking like Redman that there maybe something else going on but either way it must be associated with the process. It is kind of what the whole run your car on water thing is about. The Joe Cell. A pretty iffy science but one that is getting results. Now we can't have the masses doing that now can we? Re: Magnetic Water 19Nov 16, 2010 1:56 pm Fu, any experience using soft water on plants? I think that the magnets may have a similar effect to water softening. Water softeners actually remove calcium and magnesium salts from the water. Your explanation of what the magnets apparently do to water seems to be that it is softening the water without actually removing the salts. Re: Magnetic Water 20Nov 16, 2010 2:08 pm Um, I'm still not sure that this is for real... Wouldn't a magnet only remove heavy metals from the water, or possibly charge those molecules? I don't see how you could break down water - it is H2O. Change it's structure and you change water. The trace elements suspended in the water may be another story (i.e. mineral water). Water can never be wetter or drier - it is water. You can break it down into minute droplets by forcing it through a series of small holes and make a mist, but it's still water. Maybe I should have paid more attention in Chemistry... Second Time 'Round 4 10855 This certainly doesn't look good. I would be engaging with an independent inspector to have a look at this. As for the unscheduled site visits, most builders are quite… 1 28366 thanks Chippy, i hope they have applied sealer but i am doubt to be honest, so i am gonna do this job after handover. 8 16340 |
