Point-of-entry Water Conditioners protect your home and water-using-appliances from scale
Scale build-up can wreak havoc on your home’s plumbing system and water using appliances efficiency and life expectancy. We offer two options for solving scale problems:
- Traditional Water Softeners
- FLOW-TECH Home anti-scale systems
Water softeners are not water filters and do not remove many of the impurities that are of common concern for water quality. For more information on water filters, click below.
How the FLOW-TECH Home anti-scale system works
Unlike traditional water softeners that remove calcium and magnesium ions from your water by exchanging those ions with a potassium or sodium ion, FLOW-TECH induces a low-frequency signal pulsed several thousand times per second and propagates that signal throughout your entire plumbing system. This electromagnetic signal reverses the charge on the minerals that are dissolved in the water. The charge reversal allows the minerals to stay in suspension instead of falling out of suspension when they are heated (like in a water heater) or when pressure increases. Minerals in suspension pass harmlessly through the system and ultimately flow down the drain.
Because the minerals are not removed during this process, the “hardness” of the water is not affected, but the harmful effects of that hardness are tremendously reduced. Because the minerals are still in the water, you may have some spots on dishes when the water evaporates. This can be cared for through the use of jet-dry or household vinegar, which works just as well. The great news is that the system is maintenance-free and extremely eco-friendly as no backflush is required wasting water, and there is no discharge of salt into the sewer system.
Benefits of a FLOW TECH Home
Stopped-up drains are perhaps the worst plumbing problems of them all. They always come at the worst times, and you’re stuck, unable to use your plumbing until it’s fixed. We at Green Group understand these plumbing emergencies and understand that you need these issues fixed immediately. You do not have the time to wait multiple days until the issue is fixed. There are many different causes of stopped-up drains, and believe us, we have seen it all! A few common causes we see are large amounts of blockage in the drain lines, stopped-up vents so the drains can’t drain properly, tree roots that have grown into the pipes and are causing blockages, grease buildup, and poorly installed drains.

How Traditional Water Softeners Work
Traditional water softeners remove calcium and magnesium ions from your water by exchanging those ions with a potassium or sodium ion. Removal of these minerals eliminates the possibility of scale build-up. Systems are maintained by adding salt or potassium periodically to the brine tank attached to your softener tank. It is worth noting that in some areas water softeners are being banned due to the challenges caused in trying to treat the water after it leaves your home.
