Salt Free System Kennewick, WA

Protect your plumbing systems from hard water scaling and corrosion with salt-free systems from Soft Water Specialists LLC in Kennewick, WA. We offer Crusader Water Active Armour protection systems that use safe and reliable phosphate technology. Learn about our salt-free systems and contact us to discuss your needs.

How Salt-Free Systems Work

This system uses phosphate technology to control scaling and corrosion caused by hard water. It works by bonding with hard water compounds (such as calcium and magnesium carbonates) and inorganic metals (iron, copper, zinc) to reduce existing scale formation without the use of dangerous chemicals and create a protective nanolayer to inhibit carbonate scaling and corrosion.

 

Despite preventing hard water scaling and corrosion, the Active Armour system does not use water softening technology. Where water softeners use salt and an ion exchange process to physically remove water hardness, a salt-free system prevents hardness compounds from sticking to themselves or other exposed metal components.

Product Health Information

Active Armour has four food-grade phosphate compounds used as boundary-zone scale inhibitors that provide corrosion control for metallic piping and heat-contact surfaces. Phosphate technology has been used safely in the United States and applied municipally, commercially, and residentially for almost 70 years.

 

For residential applications, a typical dosage is 0.25–1.55 ppm. However, the recommended maximum limit for water treatment is up to 13 ppm. This means that your maximum phosphate consumption in a standard glass of water, or 12 fl. oz., would be around 0.5 mg. By comparison, the same intake of Coca-Cola contains 60 mg of phosphate, while a large egg contains 95 mg of phosphate.

My soft water system was running continuously. I called and spoke to Jason who was very courteous as I explained the situation. He immediately sent Curtis out to put my system into Bypass until he can come out the next day. Jason came out the next day but my system was 12 years old and had to be replaced as they no longer have parts for my old system. He provided some options to allow me to make the best choice. He was very professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. The next day he and Curtis arrived promptly and installed a new system for me. The installation looks great. I’m excited about my new soft water system and it appears top notch. Both Jason and Curtis were awesome to work with. Thank you Jason and Curtis! Highly recommend Soft Water Specialist!

I am so glad I called Soft Water Specialists, I moved into a home with a water softener and no salt and I knew nothing about it. They came right out, added salt and taught me what to do. They are coming back soon to make sure it is all working. i feel confident I am in great hands. Thanks to caring professionals.

Our water always left our laundry smelling musty and sour. We tried everything including the self cleaning cycle using bleach, vinegar and baking soda and nothing worked. I looked up water softener companies and Soft Water Specialists came up and I saw that they had great reviews.  So I called and Matt answered. I asked a few questions and he said he could stop by in a couple of hours.  Matt arrived with Trevor, tested our water and explained what we needed to resolve our issues. I agreed with his recommendation and he installed the complete system today. He and Trevor did a great clean job of installing the equipment, ran it through its startup procedures and instructed me on the maintenance and when to call in case of an issue. Great job, very personable, professional and we are very happy with the water quality. We’ve run a few loads of laundry and guess what? The smelly, sour and musty smell is gone. The water tastes great and our clothes smell fresh and clean again. Thank you Matt and Trevor.

My unit started running continuously so I called Soft Water Specialists. Jason came out promptly and fixed the problem in less than an hour. I’m very satisfied with the service, especially since it’s service after the sale (my unit is 3-yrs old.)
