EWS Heater Guard 3/4″ – Sediment & Scale Protection for Water Heaters

Water Heater Protection — EWS Heater Guard 3/4″

Extend the life of your water heater and avoid costly repairs with the EWS Heater Guard 3/4″. This compact inline system uses a 5 micron pre-sediment filter plus food-grade polyphosphate to reduce sediment and inhibit mineral scale buildup on heating elements and internal surfaces. It’s fully assembled for quick install and built to EWS’s high quality standards.

Features & Benefits

  • Dual protection: 5 µm pre-sediment removes dirt, rust, sand, and suspended particles.
  • Scale inhibition: FDA-approved, food-grade polyphosphate helps reduce scale formation on heating elements and in plumbing.
  • Reversible flow: Install in either direction for easier plumbing flexibility.
  • Fully assembled: Ships ready to mount—no manual assembly required.
  • Broad compatibility: Suitable for both traditional tank and tankless water heaters. 
  • Made in the USA & compliant: Meets or exceeds all relevant standards.

Installation & Use Notes
