Using No-Salt Technology
Good for the environment. Good for the planet. Good for you!
Model # ETREATWCS
Conventional water softeners are generally
considered the most effective and practical way to
reduce water hardness and prevent scale
formation in pipes and plumbing fixtures. Water
softeners, however, require salt to regenerate, and
they must be backwashed periodically to rinse and
refresh the ion exchange resin. Brine water discharge
and the need to conserve water have challenged this
conventional technology, and new methods to
provide scale-free water are being considered.

With E-Treat®water conditioning systems, there’s no salt,
no backwash, no scale, no chlorine and no electricity!
Here's how it works:
Step #1
(Main Tank)
Water enters the system and flows down through a two cubic foot bed of coconut
shell activated carbon. This initial water treatment process improves water
quality by reducing bad tastes, foul odors, chlorine and organic substances
through adsorption.
Step #2
(Inner Tank & Contact Chamber)
During this process, water flows upward through the inner tank where treatment
for scale prevention is provided using our highly effective, anti-scale media. This
unique material transforms calcium ions into Calcium crystals, which are stable
and cannot attach to pipes, surfaces, hardware or heat exchanger components.
The crystals are so small they are easily rinsed away by the water flow!
With E-Treat
®
, there is no scale on plumbing fixtures, no costly repairs to hot
water heaters due to scale, no salt, no brine tank and no electrical control valve.
The installation is easy because only a simple "in and out" valve is required.
* Performance testing proves E-Treat
®
anti-scale systems virtually eliminate
new scale formation and aids in the removal of existing scale. Results may vary,
however, and performance is based on water hardness levels, flow rate and
other factors.
Calcium scale in pipes and plumbing equipment results in high energy
costs and may lead to expensive repairs to appliances, such as hot water
heaters, ice machines, coffee makers and dishwashers. Scale can also be
a source for bacteria to grow, which may become a health concern in drinking water applications.
On the other hand, Calcium is important to human health, and supplements
are recommended if Calcium is reduced or totally void in one's diet.
Installation
E-Treat®water conditioning systems are typically installed where
water enters the house for whole house water treatment.
Pipe connections are 1".
Media And Carbon Replacement
E-Treat®water conditioning systems with anti-scale media are
designed to provide whole house water conditioning for up to five
years, based on hardness and chlorine levels before the anti-scale
media must be replaced.
We recommend replacement of the activated carbon every two
years, for optimum performance. A dome hole is provided for this
extraction.
Our trained water quality improvement dealer in your area can
complete the media and carbon replacement
procedure.

Specifications (Model # ETREATWCS)
NOTE: Do not use where water is microbiologically unsafe or with water of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the unit. System must be
maintained according to manufacturer's instructions. Pre-treatment for sediment, Iron, Hydrogen Sulfide, Manganese, hydrocarbons and copper may be required
depending on conditions. Install systems in new homes with copper pipe after six weeks of water use.
