Accessory for electrical kettle Xavax 00110729 Lime catcher Stainless steel Diameter 5.5 cm Height 40 mm

The Xavax lime catcher is a stainless steel accessory designed to reduce limescale deposits inside compatible electric kettles. With a 5.5 cm diameter and 40 mm height, this compact insert traps mineral particles carried by hard water before they settle on the kettle heating surface. The product fits into the kettle spout or mounting area where it intercepts scale, helping maintain efficient heating performance and cleaner water output without altering the kettle’s operation.

Advantages

Constructed from stainless steel for corrosion resistance and simple rinsing, the lime catcher offers a durable, reusable solution for limescale control. Its precise dimensions ensure stable placement and efficient particle capture without affecting boiling times. The design requires no tools for installation and can be cleaned quickly under running water, making it a low-maintenance accessory for regular kettle care.

• Users who prefer preventive maintenance to extend kettle lifespan
• Small offices or communal kitchens with frequent kettle use

How to use

Insert the lime catcher into the kettle’s spout area or the interior mounting point intended for scale filters, ensuring it sits stably and does not obstruct the kettle’s lid or pouring. After boiling, allow the kettle to cool before removing the catcher for inspection. Rinse the device under running water to remove collected deposits and dry before returning it to the kettle. For thorough cleaning, soak briefly in a mild descaling solution if mineral buildup becomes heavy, then rinse thoroughly.

Usage recommendations

Check kettle compatibility before use: ensure the 5.5 cm diameter and 40 mm height suit your kettle’s interior space. Empty and rinse the lime catcher regularly—frequency depends on water hardness and kettle usage. When heavy scaling is present, combine this accessory with periodic full descaling of the kettle according to the kettle manufacturer’s instructions.
