Isn't city and most well water good enough without a RainSoft
unit?
That depends on your standards of "good enough." True, most communities
meet Primary Drinking Water Standards. But your water can still be loaded with
impurities you can't taste or smell impurities that can be potentially
harmful. RainSoft can take that water and turn it into super-sudsing, great-tasting
water that meets much stricter standards.

My city water system tests fine at the source. Why should
I worry?
In the time that water leaves the plant and arrives at your home, it can pick
up substances that become a part of the water you receive. Sediment and odors
can also join the mixture. A RainSoft system provides a highly effective barrier
against these pollutants.

How does a RainSoft water treatment system remove hardness?
Hardness is removed by a process called "ion exchange." Hardness-causing
particles and debris are positively charged. The water runs through RainSoft's
resin system, which has millions of negatively charged sites. As the water flows
past these sites, calcium, rock, iron and magnesium attach to the sites and are
"bumped off."

How much sodium will be in my RainSoft water?
Very little, thanks to RainSoft's patented regeneration system. In most cases,
you'll find less sodium in a quart of RainSoft water than in a slice of white
bread. If your doctor recommends a sodium-free diet, RainSoft's reverse osmosis
drinking water unit can reduce the total sodium content to near zero.

water treatment plants.

You can exclude your RainSoft unit from your real estate contract and take

How can I calculate the return on my investment?
Calculate this. You won't have to buy or lug expensive bottled water. You'll
use less soaps, shampoos, detergents and household cleaners. Clothes will look
brighter, whiter and wear better. And because most mineral deposits are filtered
out, your expensive appliances will last longer. Best of all, your family's overall
quality of life will be improved something you can't really put a price
on.
