However, that does not compromise on its performance. The unit utilizes commercial and natural strength technology to soften your water.

A unique feature of this unit that is different from other water softening system is its softening process. It does not remove calcium and manganese present in hard water.

Instead, polyphosphates beads present in the unit converts them into tiny crystals preventing buildup along pipes and fixtures

Besides, it features a carbon-based cartridge system with a 5-micron level rating. This helps in removing harmful chemicals such as chlorine from the hard water.

What's more, is that the in-head valve is of tough and abrasion-resistant material which minimizes chances of breaking. You, therefore, get a durable water softening unit that guarantees you of service.
