Chemical-Free Showers & Baths
Problem: Toxic Showers and Baths
The skin is the largest organ of the body and toxins soak in through the skin. Chemicals such as chlorine and ammonia become airborne, especially in a hot shower, and are breathed in which irritates and damages the lungs.
Solution: Whole-house filter
We offer a whole-house filter which a is large tank filled with 55 pounds of granular coconut-shell carbon (GAC). This carbon tank has the capacity to remove many toxins - especially chlorine and ammonia - from EVERY faucet in your house. It is virtually maintenance free as it has an automatic "backwashing" valve that regenerates every two weeks and the carbon lasts the average household 4-6 years after which time the carbon is simply replaced. We have additional, custom sizes and options available.
No Hardness Build-Up
Problem: Hard water
Hard water causes scale to build up in your water heater, appliances and plumbing. Research shows that just 1/4" of scale buildup on a heating element can increase the energy required to heat by 55% over an element with no buildup. Likewise this increases energy costs by 55%. In addition to this waste of energy, scale buildup damages appliances and plumbing.
Solution:
1. Standard Salt Softener: We offer traditional salt softeners built with top-grade tanks and valves.
2. Salt-Free Hardness Neutralizer: Our preferred choice is a special "media" from Germany called Filtersorb SP3. This treatment not only prevents scale buildup but it also removes old scale and will clean out water heaters, appliances and plumbing. Also available in custom sizes.
Refreshing , Pure Drinking Water
Problem: Toxic drinking water
Tap water is typically laced with numerous chemicals and toxins such as chlorine, ammonia, Fluoride, THMs, VOCs, Pharmaceuticals, and others. Studies show that those consuming chlorine are 93% more likely to develop cancer. This toxic tap water is a serious problem of our generation and it is imperative to drink filtered water!
Solution: Reverse Osmosis filtration
We believe that Reverse Osmosis (RO) is the single best option for purifying tap water for drinking. It is simple, affordable and easy! But there are two issues with RO filtration that we solve with our deluxe RO system.
1. Traditional RO systems waste a lot of water. In a typical RO system, as much as 10 gallons can we be wasted for every clean gallon of water obtained. Our systems are built with an ingenious device called a permeate pump and it not only makes the system more efficient, but it saves 80% in waste over a traditional system. For a typical family who might use 2 gallons of water per day for drinking and cooking, this system will save over 5000 gallons per year in water waste!
2. RO filtration strips everything out of the water, leaving the water void of minerals and slightly acid with an unbalanced pH. Our systems come standard with a pH-balancing calcite filter which remineralizes the water and balances the pH. This also creates a crisp, refreshing taste!
