July 5, 2010 Attention Bidet Solutions We have sent you this letter to advise results after purchasing the Vulcan 5000 from your office. We are an 18 room motel located in the town of Cache Creek, British Columbia, We purchased your product due to the continuous hard water problems related to cleaning issues and hard water buildup. Our most obvious problems were in our bathrooms where we found after a few years it became impossible to remove hard water buildup on and along and close to the caulking areas of bathtubs and the surround shower walls. We found that after 3 or 4 years we would have to replace the surround shower walls. The toilets constantly had waterline and water fall stain build up in the bowl, the bath tub and bathroom sinks and taps also displayed hard water stain. Our guest room water glasses despite putting them through a dish washer would not come clean, typically they would display blotching or drips drying with mineral build up. Our white linens did not stay "clean white" for long and displayed a darkened white after a couple of months. Our hot water tanks and hot water copper lines continuously had to be unsoldered at elbows and joints every few years to clean out the scale- encrustation buildup as the water pressure to the rooms lost pressure. When we first had a look at the elbows we were horrified to see just a little more than a pin hole in some of the water lines getting through. Our guest room kettles had a build up of minerals that was obvious to the point where we would have to have to flush them out on a regular basis. Upon purchasing the Vulcan 5000 the first thing we noticed was that it really was easy to install with no hidden surprises. Within a few days we noticed that the guest room water glasses were truly sparkling clean, no blotching, all crystal clear. We were very happy with this result. The chamber maids have reported back that the taps and faucets are easier to clean and I must say they do appear more shinier and clean, although we expect as time goes by they will become more cleaner and newer looking. The blotching in the tubs and surround walls has improved all though the best test will be to see what happens in a year from now and on new installs. Although its difficult to tell at this early stage we assume the lines will start clearing over time given the results we have see so far. Typically the signs of severe hard water buildup start with turning on a tap in our laundry room and after a short period without adjusting the tap flow, the flow gets less and less. We then start the process unsoldering and cleaning out the pipes manually. We expect this process will now not be required. We will contact you in 6 months and advise you on our long term result. We have had the Vulcan 5000 in place now for just a short period of time(month and one half) and are definitely please with the quick results so far. Hal & Karen Sage Hills Motel Cache Creek, B.C.

Jorge Rebagliati Vulcan Scale Protector P.O. Box 6662 Santa Rosa Dear Jorge, UCDAVIS Student Housing Facilities Services has been actively exploring alternative water treatment/softening systems to traditional sodium exchange brine discharge systems for the last five-plus years. We have been doing so because of environmental and sustainability issues, as well as cost and safety concerns related to traditional systems. About 5 years ago we began experimenting with magnetic treatment systems. We evolved from there to electro-magnetic systems about two years later. In August of this year we installed the Vulcan system in a 465 bed residence hall complex constructed in 1964 that uses ground water tested at 7 grains per gallon/120 parts per million of hardness that we had never treated before. We now have traditional water treatment systems in some buildings and the three alternatives mentioned above in others. Although I believe that traditional water softening systems are the most effective, they are also the least environmentally friendly, (they actually contribute to environmental degradation), and the most costly. I have found the three alternate systems to have positive effects and the Vulcan system to have the greatest positive effects of the three. The Vulcan system reduces scale build up, changes the nature of the scale that does remain to a powdery type of scale that is much more easily removed than typical flaky scale that etches onto tube bundles, pipe and tank surfaces, faucets, aerators, etc., changes the “feel” of the water for the better and results in soaps, shampoos, and detergents being needed in reduced quantities and lathering better. I am a believer in the Vulcan system and strongly encourage facilities personnel with water treatment needs who are concerned about the environment, sustainability, costs, and safety to give Vulcan a try. Respectfully, Clyde W. Froehlich, Assistant Director – Facilities
