Often, a water softener is overlooked as an essential appliance in the home. Think not. A water softener should rank high. Why? A water softener removes hardness and iron in the water, allowing other appliances to last longer. This benefit alone should make a homeowner want to have a water softener in their home.
The first step to having a water softener installed in your home starts with a home water test. It is essential to have a home water test to determine the type and size of water treatment equipment needed. A Huemann Water team member can perform a home water test and plumbing audit and give the customer a fair price to install a water softener.
There are many types and brands of water softeners sold. The different types of water softeners sold are timer-controlled, magnetic, and demand-initiated water softeners. Many companies have moved to demand water softeners. A timer-controlled water softener will make soft water based on a set schedule whether soft water is needed. A magnetic water treatment device only reduces the effects of hard water, alters the chemistry of the water, and does not remove hardness or iron from the water.
A demand-initiated water softener, such as a Kinetico, is your best option. A Kinetico water softener makes soft water on demand. It is highly efficient using water (35 gallons per regeneration) and salt (4.4lbs per regeneration). A Kinetico water softener has twin tanks to allow the homeowner to soft water 24 hours per day. All working parts in the Kinetico water softener are used with soft water preventing hardness and iron buildup and increasing their effectiveness. In addition, a Kinetico water softener will automatically adjust for guests staying at your home. The benefits of owning a Kinetico water softener outperform any other water softener being sold today.
When deciding to have a water softener installed in your home, make the correct decision based on the unit’s efficiency. Make the decision to provide your home with consistent soft water and provide the best value for your family. Make it a Kinetico water softener.
