Abstract:
A method for internal agitation of water within a hot water heater for preventing calcium carried by water within said hot water heater from creating calcium deposits within said hot water heater, said method comprising the steps of:affixing a timer and an ultrasonic generator to said hot water heater; directing an electrical current to said timer and ultrasonic generator; converting said electrical current into an electrical current at a desired ultrasonic frequency; converting said electrical current at a desired ultrasonic frequency into mechanical vibrations by, applying ultrasoinic frequency electrical pulses to a piezoelectric transducer; and applying said ultrasonic mechanical vibrations to water within said hot water heater by, positioning said piezoelectric transducer within said hot water heater at a position to operably contact water within said hot water heater for preventing calcium from building-up and creating calcium deposits within said hot water heater.
