Flow Rate: 57 Litres/minute
A Superior Water Conditioning System that eliminates scale problems without salt, electricity or the upkeep hassle of water softeners.
This is the very latest technology in alternative softening devices. Like the conventional water softener, they use a treatment medium contained in a standard mineral tank or cartridge. Water is passed through the medium inside the tank and treated.
Unlike the softener, however, they do not need to be regenerated with salt and they do not need to be connected to a drain. They require no sophisticated electronic control system and are therefore much easier to install and set up. No maintenance, electricity, or salt is needed and dependent on the total water hardness and usage, these systems can last as long as 4 years before the media requires changing.
These systems do not remove calcium and magnesium ions from water (as softeners do) but, rather, they change these hardness minerals from their ionic form to a harmless crystalline form. In this very stable form, calcium and magnesium do not attach to pipes, appliances, and fixture surfaces. The crystals are so small, in fact, that they are readily rinsed away by the normal flow of water. This technology is often referred to as "template assisted crystallization." This has the added benefit that the systems do not need to be by-passed for a drinking water supply.
