Why Treat Water ? Water Hardness can occur even in areas where the water has traditionally been soft because of changes in the way the water industry operates. Water sharing between regions means that hard water (measured as over 150mg per litre of dissolved calcium carbonate) is now distributed over larger areas than its original source. Hard water quickly causes scale to form on all surfaces which come into contact with it from elements in hot water tanks to taps and shower heads. This scummy furring-up reduces the efficiency of the equipment requiring more energy and making equipment more prone to expensive inconvenient breakdowns. According to British Water's Quality Water Group just 1.6mm build-up of scale in heating systems can cause a 12% loss in efficiency. At the same time hard water has lower cleaning efficiency so higher quantities of detergent shampoo and other cleaning materials are needed. British Water's Quality Group estimates that water softening can save a 4 person household an average of £200 per year. Installing a water softener not only brings immediate benefits it works retroactively too gradually helping to dissolve previously accumulated scale. WaterCare manufactures a complete range of ion exchange water softeners to suit any home. Each unit is housed in a neat polypropylene cabinet 275mm wide x 450mm deep and is supplied complete with a hook-up kit and full fitting instructions. All models are designed to fit in a conveniently accessible location close to the point where the mains water enters the home. An automatic timer is pre-set to the most suitable regeneration cycle relative to the water hardness; regeneration is then automatic or can be manually over-ridden whenever necessary. If preferred a meter controlled model is also available which is most suited to households with a wide variance of water usage. Meter Controlled - Regeneration still typically takes place at 2am. This unit measures the daily water usage and statistical...
