Description
The Crystal Quest Salt-Free Water Conditioner converts calcium hardness into nanometer-size calcite crystals that are rinsed away, so it uses no salt and produces no backwash wastewater. It treats water for the whole house through four stages, starting with sediment filtration and ending with a 0.2-micron ultrafiltration membrane.
Highlights
- Salt-free scale control: no salt to add and no backwash wastewater
- Helps remove existing calcium scale from pipes and heat exchanger surfaces and limits future scale formation
- Four stages: sediment cartridge, Eagle Anti-Scale media, solid carbon cartridge, and 0.2-micron UF membrane
- Choose 1.5 or 2.0 cubic feet of anti-scale media
- Fiberglass or stainless steel tank options
Details
Avermont Direct is an authorized Crystal Quest dealer. This conditioner is suited to homes that want to control calcium scale without a salt-based softener. If your water tests at 25 gpg hardness or higher, contact us before ordering so we can help confirm whether pretreatment is needed.
