Softening hard water and addressing lime scale - without the salt

Water softener systems that use salt or potassium can contribute to excess salinity in waterways when these systems are flushed. The problem in some areas is so pronounced, some regions now have environmental regulations prohibiting new installation of automatic water softeners.

Q and A Energy produces HydroFLOW, an advanced and earth friendly water treatment device for use in the home, in pools and for industrial scale applications to prevent lime scale issues and to soften water.

HydroFLOW utilizes a high frequency radio wave to condition the water in your entire system. This signal travels both up and down stream and costs less than $2.00 a year to operate. 

There is no need to cut into your pipes, install costly equipment and incur monthly maintenance costs. Also, because HydroFLOW is non-invasive, backwashing is not required; eliminating the need to waste water like a traditional water softener requires, thus conserving our most precious natural resource: Water. 

 

Solving Lime Scale Problems

The major problem that HydroFLOW was originally designed to eliminate is lime scale. Our product will not only prevent scale from building in your plumbing system, but it will remove all existing scale as well. Because of its ability to remove and prevent scale, HydroFLOW will extend the life of your water heater, household appliances and fixtures. HydroFLOW will also reduce your energy costs, increase your water pressure and make your hot water more readily available.

Why not a water softener?

Water softeners may seem like a good solution to improving household water, but they may do more damage than good. There is research that would suggest there are long term harmful effects to you and your families health. Water softeners are also well known to be harmful to the environment. 

Water softeners add salt to the water making it difficult to treat for future use. HydroFLOW creates the effects of soft water without adding anything to the system, by increasing the surface area of the particulate in your water. Your soap will lather better and feel nicer on the skin, and rid your dishes and showers of unsightly scale residue. 

HydroFLOW is not electromagnetic coil

Over the years there have been a handful of companies that have products known as magnet coils. These devices work only for a very small area. Typically the signal that they produce only stretches a few feet, due to the fact that they generate a magnetic field. Over time they have made claims to results and effects similar to HydroFLOW, however they have no testing results to prove it. 

HydroFLOW uses the water itself to propagate the signal that it emits. This means as long as the proper sized unit is used, the signal will cover the entire plumbing system no matter what the pipe is made of, even plastic! In addition, HydroFLOW is currently used by NASA, Coca Cola, British Airways and a long list of other  companies.

Combine all of these benefits, and all of the savings you will gain and it’s easy to see that HydroFLOW literally pays for itself. A typical ROI is within 6 months to 1 year! 

Is it just for the home?

No, we also supply to as big an industrial environment as you can imagine. We can save you thousands on costly non-environmentally friendly chemicals that are currently being used to eliminate scale. Pools and man made bodies of water are greatly benefited as well. Because HydroFLOW kills bacteria and algae as it passes through the installation point, you will save up to 60% chlorine usage on an outdoor pool and up to 90% chlorine usage on indoor pools.
