What are the effects of hard water (calcium and magnesium)?
Negative Effects
The negative effect of hard water is that it creates buildup of scale on pipes, hardware, and other surfaces. The result is higher energy costs for hot water heaters and expensive repairs or early wear-out of water-using appliances. The scale may also be a breeding ground for bacteria.
Positive Effects
Calcium in water is a necessary for good health and an important nutrient needed to help prevent or minimize the effects of diseases, such as heart disease. Ideally, your water should contain calcium and magnesium, both of which are found in hard water.
Filtersorb SP3 Media: The No-Salt Solution to Conditioning Hard Water
The technologically advanced Filtersorb SP3 Media is an innovative solution that is a powerful de-scalant to reverse the negative effects of calcium and magnesium, while allowing the positive health benefits to remain.
Filtersorb SP3 Media is maintenance-free, chemical free, requires NO salt to add, or costly regeneration and backwashing, therefore requiring no electricity to operate.
