What is FILTERSORB SP3?

What is FILTERSORB SP3?

Used in our GreenWave Salt- Free Water Conditioner, the Filtersorb SP3 Media is a new media technology that uses Nucleation Assisted Crystallization (NAC). NAC transforms Calcium and Magnesium (hardness minerals) into non-soluble microcrystals.

What is FILTERSORB?

What is Filtersorb SP and how does it work? Filtersorb SP3 is a catalytic media that prevents the formation of scale and eliminates existing scale by accelerating the transformation of the calcium and magnesium minerals into harmless “Nano” crystal particles.

What is nucleation assisted crystallization?

The Nucleation Assisted Crystallization (NAC) System is a non-salt-based system that uses unique technology to transform hard dissolved minerals into harmless micro-crystals that are relatively insoluble. The system is an ideal way to protect expensive equipment from lime scale while cutting maintenance costs.

Is template assisted crystallization safe?

Conclusion: Yes, Template Assisted Crystallization Works Magnesium and calcium form micro-crystals that remain suspended in water, not adhering to surfaces. Third-party research has confirmed their efficacy. They don’t generate wastewater and they don’t use nonrenewable resources.

How does template assisted crystallization work?

Template-assisted crystallization (TAC) works by forming microscopic crystals, and this technology was evaluated during this study. Another method of physical water treatment is scale induction, where an electrical field can induce scale formation on an electrode and reduce the scale-forming potential of water.

How does Aqua Rex work?

Aqua-Rex treats all the water in the home, all the time. It sends a signal into the water heater even when no water is flowing and it also sends a signal back into the cold supply in the rest of the home so mixing valves, showerheads and kitchen faucets won’t get scaled up either.

What is TAC in water treatment?

The principle behind Template Assisted Crystallization (TAC) technology is relatively simple – before hard water scale can form on its own and cause problems, use a catalyst to create a nano-sized scale crystal in a form that will not stick to surfaces.

Do saltless water softeners work?

If you’re in the market for a salt-free water softener, unfortunately, you are out of luck. A salt-free water softener does not exist. The ion exchange process used by water softeners doesn’t work without the sodium ions displacing the calcium and magnesium ions that create water hardness.

What is TAC water?

TAC technology simply converts magnesium and calcium into microscopic crystals, rather than removing them entirely from water. These hardness minerals are essential for human health, and can also improve the taste of water, so it’s definitely a bonus that TAC retains these particulates while preventing scale formation.

Why are water softeners banned?

Water softeners are being banned because of the negative effects they have on agriculture. When water softeners regenerate, they flush the salt-filled solution into the sewage system. Water treatment plants don’t have the resources to treat this kind of water therefore, the wastewater stream becomes salty.

How long do saltless water softeners last?

The TAC media in salt-free water conditioners only has to be replaced once every three to five years. Furthermore, it takes remarkably little media to sustain an entire whole-house water conditioning system.

Why did Texas ban water softeners?

The main focus behind the state bans is to protect damage to septic systems and municipal wastewater facilities. High concentrations of sodium discharged into septic tanks harm the beneficial microbes, which affects its ability to break down solids.

What happens to the beads of the filtersorb SP3 filter?

In case of any strange color change of the FILTERSORB® SP3 media beads or the treated water is noticed, please contact us with detailed water analysis. Once formed and detached from the surface of FILTERSORB® SP3 media beads, the crystals will not adhere to any other surfaces, even in the case of hot water applications.

How does filtersorb SP3 help prevent biofouling?

So along with the scale prevention FILTERSORB® SP3 also helps preventing Biofouling. • TEST KIT : It has the TEST KIT available, that helps one to see the performance of this unique scale prevention media in his own eyes within 3-4 minutes, right on the test site.

Which is the best filter to soften water?

Recent restrictions upon many softeners eventually leads to an environment friendly, cost effective true solution for water softening, Watch-Water®’s FILTERSORB® SP3. How SP3 adds tastes to your Coffee!
