What is “Hard Water”?
Hard Water is defined as water that contains dissolved minerals (usually but not limited to calcium and magnesium bicarbonate) expressed in grains per gallon. The lower the mineral content of the water, the “softer” the water (and the more corrosive); while higher mineral content means “harder” water.
What is “Hard Water”?How Do Water Softeners Work?
All water softeners use the same operating principle: They trade the minerals for sodium or potassium chloride, [salt chemcials]. The process is called ion exchange.
The heart of a water softener is a mineral tank. It’s filled with small polystyrene beads, also known as resin or zeolite. The beads carry a negative charge.
In normal operation, hard water moves into the mineral tank and the calcium and magnesium ions move to the beads, replacing salt ions. The salt ions go into the water.
Hard water poses no health hazard. On the other hand, the salt that remains in softened water may be a problem for those on salt- restricted diets. (Ask your doctor)
Disadvantages of a Water Softener
- Brine discharge can pollute our water.
- Uses salt chemicals.
- Reverse osmosis system often used, can breed bacteria.
- Does not remove chemicals and other contaminants.
- Warranty may not cover both parts and labor.
- Can waste thousands of gallons of water annually.
The One Water Systems Alternative
Central Water Descaler (CWD-001), provides a way to keep hard water stains and scale buildup out of brand-new systems while progressively getting rid of scale from older, untreated systems. For best outcomes, this descaling process takes several months and happens gradually. Central Water Descaler (CWD-001) doesn't have any negative effects on the quality of drinking water, in contrast to traditional water softeners that use salt. By using this cutting-edge method, it guarantees the durability and effectiveness of water systems without sacrificing the drinking water's quality or safety.
Central Water Descaler (CWD-001) offers a dependable and efficient solution for either reducing or eliminating existing scale deposits or preventing scale formation in recently installed systems. It provides an environmentally friendly substitute for conventional water softening techniques by emphasizing the preservation of system function and water quality With Central Water Descaler (CWD-001), bid hard water problems farewell and welcome to reliably clean, scale-free water.
