Total Property Water Filter Conditioning System

This total property water filter conditioning system not only deals with regular filtration but also conditions the water.  Hard water issues are treated effectively with these environmentally friendly whole house water filters.

Built into this system are not one but TWO catalytic water conditioners, which are alternatives to traditional water softeners. They do not use or discharge salt.

There is one water conditioner put inside the tank for the whole house and the primary water conditioner on the inlet that handles not only the whole house but also the total property. This means that swimming pool, koi ponds, and their racing horses will benefit from the healthier conditioned water. Even the landscaping will benefit from the anti-scaling and percolation process this water conditioner will provide.

Catalytic Water Conditioners equal healthy koi pondsTotal Property Water Filter Conditioning System equal swimming pools with no or reduced stains

The catalytic water conditioners change the state of the calcium and reduce the hard water issues. They do this without the use of bags of salt or any chemicals. It is all natural. These conditioners are small physically and require virtually no maintenance. That means that unlike a water softener, which requires you to frequently dump 50 pound bags of salt into them, you can expect to do no maintenance with these but once every 10 years or so. And they don’t create the slippery or slimy feeling you get from an old fashioned salt-based water softener. With a water softener, your skin will feel like you cannot get the soap off. You waste more water and more soap because of this. You do not experience that feeling at all with the Pure Elements Healthy Home Solution water filter.

These water filters are very environmentally friendly and “Green” alternatives to water softeners. If you are ecologically minded, this type of total property water filter conditioning system is a more natural and responsible decision to choose.


Saltless Water Conditioner Comparison

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.

Rusted water conditioner fittingsRust in your home water because of this water conditioner

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.


Water Conditioning Systems – Differ From Water Softeners

Water conditioning systems are different then salt-based water softeners.  They use a different technology which in involves the use of a catalytic converter.  They do not use salt as traditional softeners do.  This is why water conditioners are better for you and the environment.

Pure Elements, Inc.  uses a proprietary catalytic converter that no one else has.  This unit deals with hard water issues very effectively without the use of salt.

The video above shows the whole home water filter version of the catalytic converter.

The key to the product is the proprietary core.  The core has fins which increase the surface area so the state of calcium carbonate can be changed more readily.  This core permanently changes the state of the hard water.  It reduces the scaling properties and reduces the hard water issues in the home.  It also helps with issues concerning landscaping, water features, spas, and swimming pools.

If you would like to know more details about this proprietary hard water conditioning system, please call us.  Again, no one else on the market has this proprietary converter.  Some competitors will claim they have something but it is not like all our’s at all.  In fact, in a future video we will dissect one of our competitors so called converters so you can judge for yourself whether you think it is a viable technology merely advertising hype.  We stand firmly by our technology and have for 30 years.

Salt free softening water system alternative with minimum maintenance

What are the advantages of using a salt free softening water system (actually a conditioner) such as the Healthy Home Solution system?

Newer technologies have been discovered that replace the technologies used in traditional water softeners.  These newer technologies take care of all the same problems the older softeners took care of but without the need for salt or potassium chloride.  {Note: Many communities across the country are making traditional water softeners illegal because of the dangers they pose to the environment.  It is probably not wise at this point to invest in such a system since they may soon be outlawed everywhere.  See this recent article from the LA Times.} LA Times – Culligan Lobbies And check out this article on the damaging affects of old fashioned water softeners.

All water filtration systems Pure Elements offers are salt and chemical free.  They are better for the environment and better for you.  There is almost no maintenance required.  There is no slippery or slimy feeling to the water as you get with traditional water softeners.  And you don’t have to go out and buy bags of salt and then go to the garage and lift 50 pound bags into the filter.  All this hassle has been eliminated with the use of our system.

Note:  Our systems are technically water conditioners and not water softeners.  However, most people don’t know about water conditioning so they don’t think to look it up for information.

In water conditioning the hard water is treated and calcium left in the water.  Better for you and no slippery feel.  This is good.  In traditional water softening the calcium is removed and the water gets salt and chemicals added to it in order to “soften” and remove the hard water.  The salt and chemicals stay in the water you consume.  The water has a slippery feel.  This is bad.
