The Merus ring will only treat the water that runs through it. So placing a ring on the cold mains service pipe into the house, will treat all the water used in the house excluding the water in a closed system.
To treat the water in a closed system, the ring needs to be placed on the closed system itself.
One other consideration is that some closed systems may have a heat transfer fluid or antifreez liquid instead of water. Merus works in water systems only.
