Peter, a customer of ChengrongTimes, previously confused whole-home water softeners and filtration systems, treating these two distinct products as the same.
No, whole home water softener and filtration system, are two distinct things.
Peter discovered our whole home water filtration systems through an google search
Peter is my first American customer.
He found ChengrongTimes while reserching whole home water filtration system on google.
From our website, he learned that ChengrongTimes is a Chinese factory, which is focusing on the R&D and manufacturer of ultrafiltration membranes and ultrafiltration water filters.
If you are unfamiliar with ultrafiltration membrane and ultrafiltration, you will definitely miss a important things, that the ultrafiltration water filter is the most suitable option for whole home water filtration system.
Peter came to ChengRongTimes, becasue his household has mnoved from city water to rural water district, and he did not expect great water from the rural water district, so he wanna a best whole home water filtration for his family.
“I wanna a best whole home water filtration system that make the water tast well”
Peter explained, “We own three refrigerators. Each fridge filter costs $60 and needs replacement every 6 months, which is a schedule my wife enfored. Replacing these filters adds up to $360 per year. Therefore, I believe investing in a best whole home water filtration system is a wise choice, as it would let us eliminate fridge filter changes completely. One whole home water filtration system could treat all household water, including the water used for toilet flushing.”
Peter’s goals were threefold, which are cut recurring filter expenses, upgrade his overall home water quality, and get rid of his annoying limescale problems.
However, looking at his requirements, it was obvious to me that Peter was confusing a whole home water softener and filtration system.
They are two completely separate things, nearly 99.99% of consumers and even the sellers mistake them for a single, all-in-one solution.
Surperise! nearly 99.99% of users mistake a whole-home water softener and a filtration system for one things
Do you know what the function of the whole home water filtration system?
It is used to remove various water impurities such as sediment/rust/colloids/insect larvae, making the water supply to our house plumbing is crystal clear.
Only use the crystal-clear water, we can get a wonderful shower experience, extend the lifespan of our water-using appliances, and prevent white clothes from turning yellow over time.
However, if you wanna get the expected whole home water filtration effect, the best option is the ultrafiltration water filters, rather than any other whole house water filtration systems.
Just focus purely on filtration rating.
In the market, the majority of whole home filtration systems rely on PP sediment filters, which only offer a rating of 1~5 microns. Ultrafiltration water filter, however, boasts a nominal filtration rating of 0.1 microns, delivering 10 to 50 times the precision of standard PP filter cartridges.
This difference becomes crystal clear when dealing with cloudy rural well water. A PP filter fails to thoroughly clarify the well water, leaving it still turbid. Conversely, ultrafiltration water filters could clarify muddy well water into a pristine, crystal-clear state natively, without relying on any activated carbon elements.
The reality is, because standard PP filters are ineffective against fine particulate impurities, many brands muddy the waters. They intentionally blur the line between whole house filtration and softening just to create a catchy sales pitch.
However, few water filtration system on earth can actually soften water. Most generic whole home water filtration systems simply inject chemical scale inhibitors to mimic a softening effect. Actually, these inhibitors do absolutely nothing to change the water’s hardness; they merely prevent calcium and magnesium ions from bonding into visible scale for a short time.
Scale build-up prevention is the job of water softeners instead of whole home water filtration system. And the optimal solution is ion-exchange resin rather than scale inhibitors.
Whole home water filtration system dosen’t equal direct drinking water
There are many whole home water softener and filtration systems, with 1~5 microns filtration rating, equipped with KDF and PHO to remove so called heavy metal and scale.
What many people don’t realize is that while some generic whole water softener and filtration system remove certain contaminants, they simultaneously release other potentially harmful substances into the water.
This is why they are absolutely not suitable for direct drinking.
My customer, Peter, wanted a single whole house water filter to achieve direct drinking water at every tap, it is a big mistake.
The Complete Whole Home Filtration Solution = Whole House Water Filter + under sink water filter
Peter wanted to improve his overall rural water quality, while also directly supplying water to his refrigerators for ice making.
Therefore, I recommended a smart, two-step solution: install a whole home water filtration system on the main water line to treat all the incoming rural water, and pair it with a single, high-efficiency under sink water filter dedicated to feeding his refrigerators.
Peter is a smart Investors.
