Water Conditioning

Cleaner Brighter Laundry
You’ll see the difference. Soft water allows you to save up to 75% on soap products simply by allowing soap to do its job. The result: clothes last up to 33% longer.

See and Feel the Difference
Gone are the hard water deposits that damage hair and the soap curd that blocks skin pores. Also with clean, soft water, your fixtures will sparkle and shine.

Cleaner Bathrooms, Less Labor
With soft water, you eliminate the need to scrub soap scum. Think of all the things you would rather do than clean up hard water problems!

Taste the Difference
Gone are the objectionable taste and odors that may invade everyday tap water. Enjoy the great natural taste of water. You’ll find food and beverages taste better and look better when prepared with quality water.

Save Up To 30% On Plumbing Maintenance & Hot Water Energy
Hard water is hard on your plumbing and the damage that results costs you money. Hard water also builds up a layer of scale in your water heater. Did you know that as little as 1/8" of scale could increase your water heating costs 30%?

 

Water Conditioning FAQ

Isn’t city and most well water good enough without water conditioning?
That depends on your standards of "good enough." Most communities meet Primary Drinking Water Standards as established by the EPA. But your water can still contain impurities you can't taste or smell – impurities that can be potentially harmful. Guardian water conditioners can take good water and turn it into great tasting healthy water that meets much stricter standards.

My city water system tests fine at the source. Why should I worry?
In the time that water leaves the plant and arrives at your home, it can pick up substances that become a part of the water you receive. Sediment and odors can also join the mixture. A Guardian home water filtration system provides a highly effective barrier against these pollutants.

How does water softening system remove hardness?
Hardness is removed by a process called "ion exchange." Hardness-causing particles and debris are positively charged. The water runs through a resin bed, which has millions of negatively charged sites. As the water flows past these sites, calcium, iron and magnesium attach to the sites and are "bumped off."

How much sodium will be in my water?
Very little, thanks to metered regeneration. In most cases, you'll find less sodium in a glass of conditioned water than in a slice of white bread. If your doctor recommends a sodium-free diet, Guardian reverse osmosis water systems can reduce the total sodium content to near zero.

Is activated carbon a safe method of filtration for drinking water?
Yes. Activated carbon filtration is recommended by the EPA for use in municipal water treatment plants.

How can I calculate the return on my investment?
With a Guardian home water treatment system you won't have to buy or lug expensive bottled water. You'll use less soaps, shampoos, detergents and household cleaners. Clothes will look brighter, whiter and wear better. And because most mineral deposits are filtered out, your expensive appliances will last longer. Best of all, your family's overall quality of life will be improved – something you can't really put a price on.
