How Salt-Free Softeners Work with TAC Media

Hard water is characterized by its high concentration of dissolved minerals, primarily calcium and magnesium ions. When hard water passes through pipes, appliances, and surfaces, these minerals tend to form mineral deposits or “scale.” Over time, this scaling can lead to reduced water flow, damage to appliances, and increased energy consumption. Traditional salt-based water softeners are designed to address this issue.

What to Do During a Boil Water Notice

A boil water notice (BWN), sometimes referred to as a boil water advisory, is a notice issued by your city water system advising you to boil your drinking water for safety purposes. BWNs are issued anytime there is a possibility that the water being delivered to you might be contaminated with cryptosporidium, Legionella, E. coli, or other disease-causing germs and pathogens.

What Do Whole House Filters Address?

To promote health and well-being, drinking water must be as pure and contaminant-free as possible. However, not all water sources are the same, and some contain more contaminants and disease-causing bacteria than others. When that is the case, the water must be filtered, and the best way to do that is with a whole-house water filter.

How Does a UV Disinfection System Work?

UV disinfection systems are designed to destroy contaminants at the microbial level without the use of harmful or toxic chemicals. They provide an additional level of protection and security by eliminating microorganisms that are able to survive chlorine treatments, such as cryptosporidium and giardia. UV disinfection systems are able to destroy as much as 99.9 percent of bacteria and other microorganisms.

Is Tap Water Safe for Pets?

Pets provide love and companionship. They quickly become part of our family. Like other family members, they need water to survive. You may not have thought much about the water you give your pet until now.

Is Tap Water Safe to Drink in Florida?

Better than imagined!!!

From the time the order was placed until it showed up at the front door was literally less than 24 hrs!!!

The next day the system was placed in service. It took only a couple leisurely hours to install and within minutes there was a noticeable difference in water quality!!

I can’t believe I waited so long to do this!!

Only after one day I have already recommended this system to many coworkers and friends!!

Thanks for a great product!!

I'd probably give it more than 5 stars if I could!

I have been buying bags of 40lb water softener for years, lugging that in and out of my garage, and buying bottle water because we were only treating our water with salt pellets. I compared Kind Water Systems to other systems on the market and found the quality and price to be far more superior than other systems. With that said, I decided to put it to the test. First, the website is very user friendly and easy to navigate (5 stars), 2nd the customer service and their ability to answer all of my questions (and I had a lot) was amazing (5 stars). 3rd I received a shipping notification within 48 hours of purchasing the product on line (5 stars). 4th I received the product 48 hours later (so approximately 4 days from purchase) which is unheard of in this economy (5 stars). 5th – my plumber was able to install the new system and remove my ancient salt softener system in just a matter of a couple of hours (5 stars). And most importantly, our water flowing through our entire house is now perfect to drink and shower with (5 stars)! No more bottle water, no more 40lbs of water softener! Both my wife and daughter said they love the way it makes their hair feel when they shower too (10 stars). It also created more space in my garage since it mounts on the wall (see photo) (5 stars). I signed up for the automatic annual filter order service they offer because I’ll never remember to do that on my own (5 stars). I do not normally leave Google reviews but felt compelled to with this product. I’d probably give it more than 5 stars if I could! I hope the company produces one for RV’s next! I’d buy that in a heartbeat and give it 10 stars too!
