Salt free water softeners are an alternative option to traditional water systems. This growing field of water treatment does not remove the scale-forming minerals from the water but rather turns them into a harmless crystalline form that prevents them from bonding together and causing scale build-up. Hardness minerals such as calcium and magnesium then pass through your plumbing in their crystalline form. This treatment is effective and reduces the need for expensive salts, frequent monitoring, and brine washing. Relax as Tier1 salt-free water softening solutions make the process simple to monitor and control. Tier1 is ready to protect every drop.
Also called saltless water softeners or TAC (template-assisted crystallization) water conditioners, these systems change dissolved calcium and magnesium into microscopic crystals that pass through your plumbing instead of sticking to pipes, faucets and your water heater. There is no salt to add, no brine discharge and no regeneration cycle. Because hardness minerals stay in the water, a salt-free system prevents scale buildup rather than producing truly soft water. It's the right choice if scale is your main concern, especially on city water.
