Water Conditioner

Water conditioning is a method of removing or altering minerals, chemicals and contaminants from a water source.A water conditioner, is a device that is similar to a salt-free water softener. It changes the way the minerals interact with your plumbing, central heating and household appliances without removing the good minerals. These good minerals are beneficial for your health. It is important they remain.Water conditioners and water softeners help to eliminate contaminants like water hardness thus making it that much cleaner and more efficient.The main purpose of water conditioners is to break down chlorine and chloramine and make water safe for fish to inhabit. Almost all dechlorinators contain sodium thiosulfate, which reacts to chlorine and chloramine to form harmless byproducts.Water softener salt is most commonly made of sodium chloride (NaCl). It is similar to the salt used for cooking. It may also be made with a salt alternative called potassium chloride (KCl), but this is less common. Water softener salt comes in different forms as well.
