Whole-Home water conditioning
Most home improvements require time, tools and a professional. Hard water treatment doesn't need to be complicated. A tank-based, non-salt water conditioner is a quick, easy, and whole-home solution for those who use borewell water or well water. There is no need for plumbing, wiring or drilling. This guide will show you how to do it easily so that you can enjoy the benefits for many months.
Step 1: Confirm your source. Borewell and well water can be treated without salt. If you use chlorinated municipal drinking water that contains bleaching powder or chlorine, your system's effectiveness and life expectancy may be affected. To achieve consistent results, it is best to avoid mixing municipal water and borewells or well lines.
Step 2: Remove the box and inspect. Check the seal, the attachment cord and strap. The unit must be in good condition, clean and intact. It should also be ready for submersion. You won't notice any change in taste or color because you are not using chemicals.
Step 3: Open your overhead tank. Position yourself in a stable, safe position. Help is needed if the lid is heavy, or if you are on a ladder. The tank should be reasonably clean. If there is visible sludge, rinse the tank. Conditioners cannot fix sediment.
Step 4: Drop the conditioner and position it. Drop the conditioner into your tank, and make sure it is fully submerged. The conditioner should float in the tank without touching the bottom. Secure the strap to a point that is stable so that the unit does not drift or rest near the outlet.
Step 5: Shut the lid and forget about it. Replace the lid tightly in order to prevent dust and insects. On contact, the conditioner begins to work. It weakens hardness ions such as calcium and magnesium so that they cannot bond together into limescale. There's nothing else to remember, set up or refill.
Day 1-14 - What to Expect: You will notice a better lather and faster rinsing. Showers won't feel "filmy". Tiles and faucets start to look less soiled. The heavy scale that is already there won't disappear overnight, but the new buildup will be significantly slower and easier to clean.
Maintenance: there is none. There is no electricity, no cartridge or salt refills and no technician schedules. Replace the unit every year, or around 10-12 months, to ensure consistent performance. Lift the unit and place it back into the tank if you are renovating or deep cleaning the tank.
Pro tip: Set a reminder on your calendar to replace the unit at 11 months. Consider the recommended range of capacity for your unit if your tank is large or your usage is high. Do not mix borewell and municipal feeds. Expect a shorter life if it is unavoidable.
This is the entire installation--simple and reliable for homes. Every drop of water your family uses is treated in one step: sinks, showers, kitchen, and laundry. Enjoy cleaner appliances and fixtures and less time spent scrubbing.
