RESIDENTIAL APPLICATIONS

AV water treatment is suitable for all residential properties preventing limescale formation throughout the hot and cold water systems and actively removing existing deposits. The AV unit offers significant benefits over the traditional salt regeneration water softeners.

Comparison Between AV Treatment and Traditional Water Softeners

AV TREATMENT

No plumbing modifications generally required

Physically small size. Can be installed without affecting storage space

Does not require chemicals or salt

Retains essential minerals, calcium and magnesium

 

AV treated water is safe to drink and noticeably improves the taste. Water is beneficial to plants and safe to use in boiler systems and water heaters

Will actively remove existing limescale deposits within a system

 

Requires no servicing or maintenance

No risk of water leakage

No water wasted

No flow restrictions or limitations

Fit and forget technology with no ongoing costs. Minimal energy consumption. Design life 20 years with no loss of performance

WATER SOFTENER

Needs to be physically plumbed into water system

Physically large using up useful storage space and requiring access for servicing

Requires constant supply of salt

Removes calcium and magnesium and replaces them with sodium chloride (salt)

Advisable not to drink softened water due to sodium content. Not suitable for watering plants. Not suitable for use in boilers due to corrosive effects of sodium. (Exception is the hot water side of combination boilers)

Can not remove existing limescale deposits

Should be regularly serviced. Resin beads will require replacement during the operational lifespan of the unit

 

Pipework seals will require replacement during the operational lifetime of the unit

 

Regular regeneration cycles will flush resin beads with fresh water and discharge water into the drainage system wasting water and, on metered supplies, will cost money

Maximum flow rates apply dependent on model selected

Continued ongoing costs for salt and servicing for an indeterminate period

Residential water systems vary in layouts and pipework installations.
