FUTURA Water Softeners Vs. Traditional Water Softeners: What are the differences between traditional water softener and FUTURA Salt-Free Water Softener/Conditioner?
1) Sodium content will not increase: The traditional water softener operates on the basis of ion exchange. Ion Exchange resins remove calcium and magnesium ions from water, and replace these with sodium ions. These traditional ion exchange softeners produce salty water – Intake salty water increase risks for the cardiovascular system. Also, due to Negative impacts to the environment, many local cities have banned the use of Traditional Salt-Based systems. 2) No salt and no regeneration: When the Ion Exchanger is depleted, it requires water for backwashing and must be regenerated using salt or potassium chloride. A drain must be installed to Discharge the salty water and minerals. Since FUTURA Water Conditioner is a pure catalytic process, the water hardness is transformed into firm lime crystals. When the calcite crystals reach a size in the range of nano-meters, they detach from the resin-plated template and are carried away by the water flow. The media is not used up in the process;
