Hard water is a problem in 75% of Canadian homes; it dries out skin and hair, clogs pipes, discolors fixtures, and decreases appliance functionality. The majority of people use either salt-based or salt-free water softeners to address this. Hard water is treated by both salt-based and salt-free water softeners, but only one of them is…

Water softener shower heads promise smoother skin, shinier hair, and cleaner bathroom tiles. However, the name is marketed as a quick alternative to full softening systems, but they only reduce calcium and magnesium. They offer surface-level filtration and can not completely remove hardness minerals the way full-house water softeners do, at least not in a…

Everyone needs to make sure that their water is safe and clean enough to drink with water treatment systems. Filtration systems like activated carbon or mechanical filters get the job done. They remove sediment, bacteria, and some chemicals. Emphasis on “some” as they fall short when it comes to dissolved salts, minerals, and metals.  Reverse…

You might be noticing a change in the taste of your water or dealing with lower water pressure. How Often Should I Change My Water Filter? The answer depends on usage, water quality, and the type of filter. Most need replacing every 2 to 6 months, but if your water tastes bad, smells odd, or…

People living in areas (U.S. and Canada) with hardness in water understand issues like unpleasant odors and mineral buildups. So, most people start looking for water “softening” treatments.

Water filtration systems are physical filtration media that purify water from impurities by removing solid particles, contaminants, and other unwanted substances from the water.  Water filtration systems work by passing water through filters that trap contaminants. This procedure makes tap water contaminants-free and pure. Depending on the system type, this process involves multiple stages, each…
