Product Description
The EWS physical conditioner is not a traditional water softener where hardness minerals are exchanged for sodium or potassium salts (salt creates its own set of problems). It uses a catalytic process called Increased Calcite Nucleation (ICN) where the hardness minerals are taken out of solution, and put in suspension whereby the problems associated with hard water are eliminated. ICN Process The water is passed through sediment and activated carbon filtration to remove sediment and chemicals, then the water travels up through the riser into the ICN manifold, where the conditioner breaks the calcium and magnesium minerals apart from the water molecules. In other words the hardness minerals are taken out of solution, and put in suspension. Once in suspension, the minerals become attracted to each other and no longer adhere to surfaces ? no more scale, chemicals, bad tastes or odors. EWS Filtration The granular activated carbon (GAC) high grade media found in the EWS Series removes chlorine and other volatile organic compounds (VOC's), improving the water?s taste, clarity and odor. Results Easier wipe up of water spotting, better use of soaps, scale prevention within your pipes and water heater, and filtered water to your entire home. Without the salt-softener related issues of slippery feeling water, brine discharge and other problems. The EWS Series has a minimal impact on the water pressure. The automatic backwash does not allow the filtration media to pack, channel or pool; this prevents any bacterial build-up and provides continued and renewed surface area for filtration. Digital Valve ?Years of maintenance free operation ?No timer motor to burn out ?Easy time set ?Shorter, more efficient backwash Application Use the EWS-1054 for smaller sized home 3 or less baths, one water heater, with 10 or less grains of hardness on 1" service line. For use with municiple water supplies - call for use with well water.

Interesting Design July 26, 2008
John A. Lefcourte (Reno, NV USA)
I have water from a county well that is highly mineralized, tastes terrible and leaves deposits on kettles, faucets, shower walls, etc. I wanted a combination filter and softener. From my web research this unit appeared to be the best. I did NOT want to use water softener minerals and this doesn't.
The unit is tall, it does not fit in my crawl space, which was my first choice for location. Luckily I did have space for it in my garage. It cost about $1000.00 to install.
The unit back flushes itself and seems to use a significant amount of water to do so but it is hard to tell how much.
It does work well. We can drink and cook with the water, now, and it doesn't leave significant mineral deposits although some minerals seem to be passing through.
I am very satisfied with it.
