Here's what I'm getting ready to look for:
I'd like to find an inline water filter (coarse-ish mesh is fine - this is going to be for biggish chunks of scale. A mesh of .030" or so would be perfect!) that can either be plumbed inline with the service entry for a house (typically 3/4" NPT) or into the supply lines for a faucet (1/2" IPT, I think, or thereabouts,) or - potentially - behind the angle stops for supply (1/2" NPT.)
I'll be starting my search shortly, but I wanted to ask and see if anyone knew anything that I could use for a shortcut.
I've got a client that I do handiwork for, and her faucets keep getting blocked up with loose bits of scale.
Ideally, I'm thinking a medium-mesh filter that can be easily broken down and cleaned (as I said, a screen would be plenty) in 10-15 minutes, or that an older woman could do herself (if she's so inclined) in a half hour with no special tools. I'm envisioning the thing needing cleaning once every 6-12 months or so.
Any ideas? Any good "jumping-off" points for my search? Local stores have been looking at me like I've grown a third head when I ask for something like this...
