If you receive your water supply from a municipality, chances are that you’re having an issue with hard water in your home. All water contains some minerals in varying degrees, but when calcium and magnesium levels are too high, the result is “hard” water that can cause a number of headaches for a homeowner — and even a plumber who is attempting repairs. Here are some of the effects of hard water on your home:

1) Soaps, detergents and shampoos lose their effectiveness as they combine with minerals in the water to form an insoluble, clingy curd.

2) Scaly deposits and stains form on bathroom and kitchen plumbing fixtures, and they’re difficult to remove.

3) The useful lifespans of appliances such as clothes washers, ice makers, dishwashers and water heaters are shortened.

4) Over time, the mineral build-up in a home’s plumbing system can cause reduced flow, sluggish drains, clogs and deterioration of the lines, and water heaters to work extra hard.

If you’re experiencing hard water problems, installing a water conditioner could be the solution without the maintenance & hassle of salts.

How Does an Inline Water Conditioner Work?

Here at the Twin Plumbers, we use a patented system called the HALO ION to soften hard water. When installed in a water supply line, it controls the formation of scale and corrosion deposits without the use of chemicals. The alternating magnetic fields causes most minerals (iron excepted) flowing through to stay suspended in the water so they cannot form a hard, brittle scale. The entire process bonds calcium ions to each other rather than to your plumbing and plumbing fixtures
Water passes — under pressure and with minimal turbulence — through alternating magnetic lines of force perpendicular to the water’s flow direction. This causes a polarizing effect upon non-polar constituents in the water and provides the energy of activation level necessary to cause the dissolved Calcium Carbonate (Calcite) CaCO3 within the water to recombine and form “aragonite” (an amorphous powdery form) when the solubility limit is reached. Unlike crystalline CaCO3, aragonite can easily remain suspended in the water stream rather than attaching to system walls as “scale”.
The presence of aragonite in the water provides an additional benefit in terms of corrosion protection. A thin film of the soft aragonite, which normally forms as a result of long term magnetic treatment, actually prevents free oxygen within the water from attacking the metallic components through which the water travels, thus preventing corrosion.

Some of the benefits you’ll see after installing a water inline conditioner :

1) Savings of as much as 75 percent on the use of soaps, shampoos, dish and laundry detergents.

2)Softer, cleaner laundry since soap residue and dirt aren’t imbedded in fabrics.

3) Spot-free dishes and glassware.

4) Lower consumption and energy savings of up to 29 percent on water heating.

5) Reduced damage and wear to all water-using appliances.

6) Less effort required for cleaning in the bathroom and kitchen.

7) Decrease is pin hole leaks in copper pipe.
