Is a Nuvo H2O a Water Softener or a Water Conditioner?
Are you looking for a solution to hard water in your Phoenix home. If so, you may have discovered that there is a ton of information online about water softeners and water treatment systems. There are hundreds, if not thousands of different products on the market for softening your water and for conditioning your water. Sometimes the abundance of information can be overwhelming. We find that a lot of our clients are interested in eliminating hard water in their homes. Many of those looking to treat the water in their home always ask if a Nuvo H2O is a water softener or a water conditioner? Many of our clients want to soften their hard water without the use of salt. A Nuvo H2O is an incredible solution for doing that. But is a Nuvo H2O a water softener or a water condition? I got down to the bottom of it by asking Nuvo themselves. According to Nuvo H2O they are BOTH!
Is Nuvo H20 a Water Softener?
I’ve had several people argue that a Nuvo H2O is not technically a water softener. A Nuvo Water treatment system leaves calcium as well as other minerals and nutrients in your water. I can understand this thinking. The traditional concept of water softening from salt water softeners is that all of the minerals are removed from your water. This helps make it soft and so minerals can be replaced with sodium. That is not the definition of soft water though. That’s just one example of how the result of soft water is created. To have the technical definition of soft water, the calcium-carbonate can no longer be in your water. Nuvo H2O achieves soft water by changing calcium-carbonate into calcium-citrate. Calicium-citrate is not the hard form of calcium. They accomplish this through the process of chelation rather than an ion exchange like.
Is the Nuvo H2O the right choice for your water softening needs?
The Nuvo H2O water softener has a lot to offer in a small package. The Nuvo H20 softens your water and conditions your water. With the right system it can also make your water taste better by removing impurities like chlorine and other chemicals. Some benefits of choosing a Nuvo H20 vs a traditional salt softener is that there is no need for electricity. There is also no need for heavy bags of salt, no sodium added to your water and no drain line is required.
