Comparison between chemical water softener (Ion-exchanger) and Aqua-4D®
Environment
| Chemical water softener (Ion-exchanger) | Aqua-4D® |
| Changes the chemical composition of water(calcium is exchanged for sodium) | Keeps the same original chemical composition of the water (calcium et magnesium remains in water) |
| Damages environment with rejections of salt with waste water | Respects environment with no rejects |
| Increase of annual consumption of water by 10% for rinsing purposes |
Health
| Chemical water softener (Ion-exchanger) | Aqua-4D® |
| Influence on water potability | No influence on water potability |
| Some clients meet with wellness issues | Some clients perceive improved wellness |
| Ideal ground for bacteria development if systematic maintenance not done on a regular basis | Eliminates the ground for bacteria development |
| Consumption not advised during pregnancy, cardiovascular problems and new born babies | Consumption advised to all |
Installation / Maintenance
| Chemical water softener (Ion-exchanger) | Aqua-4D® |
| Large space needed for installation (water /mixing container + salt reservoir + salt bags) | Hardly any space needed (tube on the water main + small electronic box on the wall) |
| Regular maintenance needed | No maintenance needed |
| Inhibits new scaling but does not dissolve existing ones | Inhibits new lime scaling and corrosion, and dissolves existing lime layers in installations |
| Minimum tuning to 15 French degrees hardness to prevent corrosion. However no automatic tuning according to change of hardness of water | Works with all water hardnesses even if they change all the time |
Cost Advantage of Aqua-4D®
Other technologies
Electrolysis systems
Chemical / mechanical solutions
Other magnetic devices
- Requires a minimum flow of water to work
- Limited effect against corrosion
- Requires regular maintenance
- long and troublesome intervention
- High costs
- Risk of water leaks (perforated pipes)
- Continuous chemical injection
- Effect depends on the thickness and material of the pipes
- Almost no effect with laminar water flow
- Efficiency depends on water flow
