Every few years the water treatment industry is infected with snake oil salesmen pitching magnetic water softening! When you hear that healthful minerals will remain in your water, watch your wallet!
"we will clamp a $600.00 magnet to your pipes and your water will magically be soft, but will retain healthful minerals."
The fact is that minerals in water such as (calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate) are inorganic rock from limestone and can't be effectively absorbed by your body. Ask your doctor and they will tell you that you need living or organic Calcium Lactate or Calcium Citrate from dairy or fresh fruit.
The only proven method of softening water is through ion-exchange using either sodium chloride or potassium chloride as the exchange agent. There are many new designs of ion-exchange water softeners on the market today and most use very little salt or potassium!
Get the facts and don't make an expensive mistake. |
