Large selcetion of iron filters, water softeners, whole house water filters and commercial reverse osmosis and commercial iron filters.

Alternative to Water Softener - Water Softners Systems - Our Platinum Packages deliver clean clear water to your entire house to reduce hard water problems and provide drinking water at every tap.

The whole house Platinum Package Magnetic Water Treatment and UV Package - Our water conditioners are the alternantive to sodium based water softeners and high maintenance water treatment systems. Here are a few reasons why we recommend the Platinum Package: The Aquafer Water Source Whole House drinking water filter provides chlorine taste and odor filtration as well as Salt Free Hard Water Scale Conditioning. Provides Whole House Ultraviolet Bacteria and Virus Treatment. Package also includes: (1) Whole House sediment pre filter for large particle, rust, and sediment and (1) 1 micron whole house post carbon block filter for extra added filtration.

Drought Proof Water Treatment ! - Drought continues to be the major concern for many areas of the country. Areas of eastern Georgia, the western Carolinas, and the Florida peninsula are entering their fourth year of drought. Lack of precipitation in the Northwest and Northeast will provide no drought relief any time soon.

No Waste Water ! - The aquafer waterSource and the uv ultraviolet disinfection system do not use a backwashing or regeneration control valve. Thus, no waste water is produce and no drain line is needed.

 

No Discharge Water ! - Unlike sodium or potassium based water softeners. The Aquafer requires no SALT. Therefore, no discharge. Water softener discharge has currently been banned and banned in the past by some states.

 

Benefits of Water Conservation:

In order to meet the needs of existing and future populations and ensure that habitats and ecosystems are protected, the nation's water must be sustainable and renewable. Sound water resource management, which emphasizes careful, efficient use of water, is essential in order to achieve these objectives.

Efficient water use can have major environmental, public health, and economic benefits by helping to improve water quality, maintain aquatic ecosystems, and protect drinking water resources. As we face increasing risks to ecosystems and their biological integrity, the inextricable link between water quality and water quantity becomes more important. Water efficiency is one way of addressing water quality and quantity goals. The efficient use of water can also prevent pollution by reducing wastewater flows, recycling industrial process water, reclaiming wastewater, and using less energy.

RainDance Water Systems is dedicated to improving water quality WITHOUT the need for using chemicals, salt, or wasting water to drain. Thus *no on going maintenance, no waste water, and no polluting chemicals being discharged. * No maintenance refers only to the Aquafer Water Source.

Did You Know? - Water softener discharge has been banned in several U.S states.

California* - May begin banning water softeners as of January 1, 2003. Texas - Currently enforcing a statewide ban on water softeners. Michigan - Softener discharge into dry wells or unused septic tanks. Connecticut - Prohibits discharge of brine water to septic tanks.

*Recently a letter was sent to all businesses in the Santa Clarita Valley in Southern California stating that it is illegal to discharge salt waste from water softeners and conditioners to the sewer. If a business has a water softener or conditioner that regenerates any discharge of concentrate salt waste or brine, it must be discontinued immediately! - The Aquafer Water Source is your hard water conditioner alternative!

 

Why Our AWS-Platinum Packages With UV Disinfection: Piece of mind and assurance - Certain states and provinces regulate the sale of UV systems for residential applications. Some require NSF certified products, others have their own standards. If you are looking for an independently certified UV water system, then the Sterilight Platinum™ system should be your choice. The SPV-15 carries NSF/ANSI Standard 55, Class A certification and provides a flow rate of 15.0 gpm. Boil water advisory? Township and city-managed water supplies aren’t failsafe, either. Boil water advisories are becoming more common. Beyond the inconvenience they cause, such advisories are a clear warning that the clean water we’ve taken for granted is becoming a scarce resource.These units are ideal for use in any UV application where a third-party validated unit is specified.

What is Hard Water ?

Answer: The term hardness refers to the quantity of dissolved calcium and magnesium in water. These minerals, which come primarily from limestone type rock formations, are found to some degree in almost all natural waters. Calcium and magnesium cause problems for two principal reasons:

When the water is warmed, they precipitate out of solution and form a hard, rock-like scale. This scale accelerates corrosion, restricts flow, and reduces heat transfer in water heaters and boilers.
When they combine with soap, they react to form a curd, which interferes with cleaning, dries out skin, and leaves deposits on plumbing and clothes (bathtub ring; ring around the collar). The minerals in hard water gradually settle out forming a hard scale. Scale centimeters thick can build up over time in hard water areas. Scale build up will eventually clog pipe, and can decrease the life of toilet flushing units by 70 percent and water faucets by 40 percent according to a report published by the American Water Works Association (AWWA). Hardness scale can also shorten life of washing equipment, dishwashers, and clothes washers by as much as 30 percent according to the AWWA report.

Hardness is measured in parts per million (or the equivalent mg/L) or in grains per gallon (gpg). Note: if the water analysis is given in ppm as CaCO3 then 1 gpg = 17.1 ppm. There is no established limit for the acceptable level of hardness in water, but it is generally considered to become problematic at around 3 gpg.

Levels of hardness are referred to as follows:

Soft Water: 0 - 1 grains per gallon (gpg)
Slightly Hard Water: 1 - 4 grains per gallon (gpg)
Moderately Hard Water: 4 - 7 grains per gallon (gpg)
Hard Water: 7 - 10 grains per gallon (gpg)
Very Hard Water: Over 10 grains per gallon (gpg)

What is the Aquafer Water Source(AWS)& how does it work?

The Aquafer Water Source Filtration & Scale Prevention System Filters common water problems through the use of a 4-step process

1st Step

Untreated water enters the Aquafer Water Source flowing through a deep layer of KDF filtration media, filtering chlorine tastes and odors.

2nd Step

The filtered water passes through a spring-loaded chamber which creates a small pressure drop. This pressure drop initiates the formation of calcium hardness crystals.

3rd Step

The calcium hardness crystals then pass through a catalytic surface which greatly multiplies the number of crystals. It is the last two steps (pressure drop & catalytic surface) that makes the Aquafer Water Source Filtration & Scale Prevention System significantly more effective than other treatment systems.

4th Step

The multitude of calcium crystals pass through a strong magnetic field which serves to hold the crystals in suspension rendering them harmless up to 72 hours to your plumbing & plumbing fixtures.

The entire process bonds calcium ions to each other rather than to your plumbing and plumbing fixtures. A simple damp cloth (if at all) is more than sufficient to remove any residual mineral deposits rather than the usual abrasives and "elbow grease" that is normally required. The Aquafer Water Source Filtration & Scale Prevention System will also provide filtered drinking water at every tap. The surface tension of the water is also reduced which results in a higher quality of water absorption into the human body and plant life.

Question: What does the unit do?
Answer:

a. It reduces the formation of hard water scale in water heaters & pipes
b. It will reduce the formation of hard water scale on shower doors & fixtures.
c. It will prevent hard water "bathtub ring" and allow the use of less soap and detergent.
d. It filters chlorine from the water to improve taste and odors.

e. As an added benefit, KDF media will reduce lime scale, mold, and fungi in your tub or shower.The KDF 55 Process Medium is certified to ANSI/NSF Standard 42 for drinking water.

Question: What are some of these features?
Answer: First, it is all done in one space saving tank that measures under 55" high and only takes up a circle of one-foot diameter on the floor. Second, there are no regeneration chemicals like salt used at all. Third we have added a pre and post filter for even better water quality. The Aquafer Water Source also includes: (1) 5 micron sediment prefilter for filtering large particals, sediment and rust and a (1) 1 micron whole house carbon block post filter for extra added filtration.The Aquafer Platinum Package which includes a whole house ultraviolet UV system for added filtration.

Question: Is there any maintenance required?
Answer: The Aquafer Water Source is considered a no maintenance system and can last 15+ years. We have included: One 5 micron sediment prefilter for filtering large particles, sediment and rust and should be replaced approximately every 6-12 months Price: $15.00. Also included is a 1 micron whole house carbon block post filter which should be replaced every 6-12 months Price: $25.00 .The Aquafer Platinum Package also includes a whole house ultraviolet UV system in which the UV bulb should be replaced every 12 months. Price: $87.00

Question: Does a regular softener use a lot of salt?
Answer: It depends on the hardness of the water and also the number of people in the home. Based on the averages the savings would be over 700 pounds of salt a year. That's $75-$100 a year or almost a $1,000 over the 10 year life of a softener. Not to mention the back braking job of lugging all of that salt.

Question: Are there other advantages?
Answer: Certainly, A big one is that this unit NEVER regenerates so there is never water discharged down the drain.

Question: Do regular water softeners waste a lot of water?
Answer: Again it depends on the water hardness, softener design, and the family size. But the average would be about 10,000 gallons a year.

Question: It sounds like this unit is very friendly to the environment. Is this true?
Answer: Yes it is. Also in many parts of the US there is legislation pending to stop the discharge of the salt into municipal sewers. You can imagine the problems that would be caused by hundreds or thousands of softeners in a single city.

Question: Are there even more advantages?
Answer: Yes there are. The unit has no valve mechanism and thus no need for electricity. The cost of installation is often lowered because no outlet is needed. With no valve there are no moving parts so service is eliminated.

Question: You mentioned filtration of chlorine. Won't there be a need to replace the carbon?
Answer: We do not use carbon in the Aquafer tank. We use a special material (KDF) that will last for millions of gallons. Expected life is for over 15 + years of normal use.

Question: How does it work?
Answer: The scale prevention process is quite easy. We use a patented combination catalytic and magnetic chamber to change the calcium (hardness) of the water from a dissolved material to sub microscopic particles that wash through the plumbing system without being able to connect themselves to the pipes or heaters. In this form they will not react with soaps or detergents either. We have found that magnets alone do not work as effectively so that is why we precede the magnets with a catalytic device.

Question: What about the chlorine removal?
Answer: The Hard Water is treated using the steps listed above. For chlorine tastes and odors KDF is used. This process media are high-purity copper-zinc formulations used in pretreatment, whole house filters, primary treatment, and wastewater applications. KDF media supplement or replace existing technologies to dramatically extend system life, scale, and decrease maintenance.

Patented KDF process media are 100 percent recyclable and contain no chemical additives. Hospitals, restaurants, municipal water treatment facilities, and homes rely on KDF process media to filter chlorine tastes and odors from their water.

Question: Will the water test soft?
Answer: No. The test chemicals are designed to put the hardness back into solution. Once back into solution they will show hardness on test kits.

Question: I thought all equipment had to have a valve. Why not yours?
Answer: Because we have a constant upward flow path that keeps the filter media always moving and not packing down and collecting dirt.

Question: Can this unit be used on all water supplies?
Answer: NO! We must know something of the chemistry of the water. In particular the Calcium hardness, total alkalinity, and pH. From this we can establish the Langelier's index and apply it to our lab test data. If on a private well we would encourage a test or an evaluation of existing test data.

Question: Am I correct in summarizing by saying that this unit uses no chemicals, has no valve, has no moving parts uses no electricity, discharges no water down the drain, will prevent the problems of hard water and will stop chlorine taste & odor for 15 years or more.
Answer: YES!

Question: Is there anything special about the water from this unit compared to water that has gone through a salt using softener?
Answer: Yes. First, there will not be the slippery feel on your skin when you shower or bathe. This feel comes from the sodium reacting with your body oils. Secondly, we add nothing to the water such as sodium mentioned previously. This could be important to someone on a low sodium diet.

Question: Any other special things about the water?
Answer: There is an unusual phenomenon that takes place. The surface tension of the water is reduced. This is often referred to as making the water "wetter". It simply means that the water can penetrate a plant more effectively and deeper so that the plants are more hardy and grow better. With a standard salt type softener, that water is actually be harmful to plants.

Question: Is this a brand new technology, or has there been some experience in actual use?
Answer: We have employed catalytic and magnetic processes since 1994. We have also used the special filtration media (KDF) for that period of time. There were over 1,000 units placed world wide in the first 5 years.

Question: Has the performance been reliable?
Answer: YES! WE have fewer than 1/2% field problems and without exception they resulted from situations where the units were placed on water supplies that were outside of the limits that have been established through testing.

Question: Are there any general guidelines that can be used on the water chemistry where the use of this unit would be o.k.?
Answer: Hardness up to 25 grains, pH 7.5 or less and a visibly clear water. this as stated before, Well water supplies should be tested.
