EcoWater ERRC 3702 Series
Whole Home Water Conditioner
Your softener bed is populated with thousands of tiny beads made of resin. The resin acts like a magnet, working to draw out the calcium and magnesium that make life – and your water – so hard.
Salt is then used to regenerate the resin bed, clearing out the minerals and priming it to do the job once again.
Water hardness is a measurement of how much dissolved calcium, magnesium and other minerals are in your water. Hard water can hurt pipes, fixtures and appliances with scale build-up and this often translates to unnecessarily high costs annually in cleaning products and detergents.
A water softener will take out the hard minerals from your water, making your water soft. The refiner has the added step of a carbon layer for the water to pass through, removing the chlorine from the water as well.
The ERRC 3702 Series goes one step further to not only reduce chlorine, but chloramines too.
Water softeners add very little sodium to the drinking water. A single glass of softened water typically contains less than 12.5 milligrams of sodium. To give this perspective, a single slice of white bread can average around 170 milligrams of sodium.
If this is still a concern, potassium chloride pellets are also available for use as an alternative to sodium chloride.
