What are the benefits of conditioned (softened) water?
In addition to providing you with a better quality of water, conditioned water saves you money on multiple levels: • Soft water can reduce your energy consumption by up to 30 percent, which can add up to significant savings by the end of the year. According to a study commissioned by the Water Quality Research Council and conducted at New Mexico State University, water heaters operating with hard water consume between 22 to 30 percent more energy than those that use soft water. • When hard water is heated, all of the minerals associated with hardness are precipitated out and deposited throughout the entire plumbing system. With conditioned water, those minerals are removed from the equation. Because conditioned water doesn’t leave mineral deposits behind to clog up your system, conditioning dramatically increases the life of your plumbing fixtures, sinks, valves and pipes, as well as any water-using equipment (water heaters, dishwashers, laundry machines, etc.). • Soft water reduces th
