Water softeners are essential in hard water areas.
With 60% of the UK (over 13 million homes) living in a hard water area and only an estimated 7 – 8% of hard water homes enjoying the benefit of a softener, it is important to understand why installing a water softener can make lifestyle, economic and sustainable sense. Installing a water softener will not only protect a home from limescale build-up every day, but it will also remove any that’s already accumulated. This means that appliances will work more efficiently, making significant savings in running costs. According to British Water, just 1.6mm of scale on a heating element causes it to be 12% less efficient and at 3mm this increases to 24% less efficient. It also means they are less likely to break down and their working life will be lengthened.
We encourage people to view water softeners as an insurance policy to protect their homes from the ravages of limescale, and homeowners can save up to £550 a year by having one installed. With units costing just a few pounds a year to run, the ongoing costs of water softeners is negligible compared to all the benefits and savings they offer in other areas.
The latest innovations in water softening technology affords consumers the luxury of protecting their homes and appliances from the negative effects of limescale while conserving more water and energy than before. The Pro-Soft range of water softeners offer many advantageous benefits such as high flow rates and low pressure drops and make use of next-gen XE Pro-Brining technology which means the softeners only regenerate the resin that has been used, making them more efficient and more of a sustainable choice than many of their counterparts.
All Pro-Soft softeners are WRAS approved – independent accreditation in compliance with local bye-laws – giving you peace of mind for every drop you use.
