The Primary Purpose Of A Water Softener
Although hard water is beneficial to humans, plants and animals it creates problems with build up of calcium and magnesium in plumbing pipes and appliances as well as hot water heaters which cost Americans hundreds of millions of dollars each year. The negative effect of calcium sticking to our hair and skin has created a windfall for hair and skin products designed to counter act these effects. The Primary purpose of a water softener is to counter act the negative effects of hard water.
Many people are unaware of the different methods for softening water and the advantages and disadvantages of each. We have researched the top methods used in whole house water softeners and filtration systems. There are many benefits to owning and using a water softener.
Dave's favorite toilets are the Ultra Max and Drake by Toto. Toto calls this a "G-Max" toilet. These are good looking toilets that incorporate a 3" flush valve instead of the standard 2". The fill valve can be found in any hardware store. It meets commercial requirements works well in a home and is quieter than the pressure air assisted models. The long sweeping trap way is good prevention against clogging from stuck objects that can get caught in the standard shapes. This is a homeowner favorite too.
There are two kinds of water heaters: the standard tank heater that is present in most homes, and the tankless water heater. Both types are available in gas or electric power varieties.
