This is a Saltless Water Conditioner Comparison and conversion.

We recently converted and upgraded a competitor’s system to our HealthyHome Solution, and we pulled out this unique contraption that was supposedly meant to reduce hard water scale buildup.

We immediately noticed this green growth on the exterior of one of the components, which is directly in the water flow to the home.  We can’t explain the growth on the component, but it appears to be copper related and this is scary.

Oddly enough, the other component shows none of this growth.  We decided to open these components  to see what is inside – Some type of plug or small core inside a copper wire netting.  Very little surface are on the plug.

This what it looks like up close.  When we pulled the second plug from it’s netting, we noted substantial pitting.  These pits mean that the mystery plug is sacrificial and the missing material has been introduced directly into the household water.

Our own proprietary catalytic conditioner utilizes a core with fins and a very large surface area to effectively change the state of the hard water minerals and reduce the problems they create.  This produce is not sacrificial – this is the outside total property version – we also have the version that is built into our Healthy Home whole-house filter system which is without metal housings or components and provides a much higher flow rate when compared to our competitor’s small copper pipes.

We also noted what appears to be iron or rust coming off of the brass fittings, as was evidenced by its presence on the fittings and inside the drain line.  This rust has been traveling into the household as well, which is not good for a system that is supposed to provide protection from contaminants and a cleaner water than is coming from the municipality.  We believe our proprietary conditioner is vastly superior because it is not sacrificial, has 100s of times the surface area of these plugs, has a non-metallic body when used inside our whole house filter, and provides dramatically higher flow rates with much less restriction. And it’s performance in reducing hard water issues has been well proven since we developed it and first made it available through all of the major local tract builders in 1982.
