Softening test is a capricious size

There is no softening test that can help you choose between LAGUR and water softening plants , because the important point is how you personally experience the limescale problems in your home before and after installing your new water treatment plant .

SOFT WATER IS NOT CALCIUM-FREE

For most homeowners, it is primarily the desire for fewer limescale problems in daily life that leads them to invest in a water treatment plant , and there are primarily two types of them:

One type is water treatment , which makes a chemical change and reduces the water's content of limescale through ion exchange. This type is also called water softening plants . The other type is non-chemical water treatment seam LAGUR , which changes the physical properties of the lime. In LAGUR In our case, this is done using electromagnetism , which changes the shape of the lime so that it adheres to surfaces and installations to a lesser extent.

When we meet customers who ask about testing the effect of the different types of systems, they get a long explanation, not unlike this post, because it is not at all straightforward to compare the two types of systems.

TESTING OF water softening IS REALLY EASY

Actually, it is easy to test a water softening plants , for example, when it reduces the water hardness from 28 dH to 12 dH. This can be measured. But what about the experienced effect?

When the water's lime content has become sufficiently comfortable for you depends more on your prior expectations than on the display on a measuring device.

Soft water is no guarantee that the limescale problems are gone, because the limescale is still there – it is just reduced, which is why a more accurate term is 'less soft water'. On the other hand, the water's sodium (salts) content is increased as a result of the chemical process.

THE LIME IS PRESERVED – THE LIME IS MINIMIZED

A measurable test of LAGUR 's effect requires expensive, scientific equipment that can measure how the changed structure of the lime affects, among other things, surface tension. Unfortunately, we cannot provide this service for individual installations.

But we have great respect for homeowners' desire to see tests and results of, respectively water softening plants and non-chemical plants such as LAGUR before they decide, and that is why over the years we have collected lots of documentation for LAGUR 's effect on hot water tanks, heating elements in washing machines, faucets, cisterns, etc.

Because regardless of the hardness of the water, it works LAGUR in the same way in all homes: The lime content is unchanged, but the structure of limescale has been redesigned so that limescale does not settle on surfaces and in installations to the same extent as before.

This gives you and the members of your household a real experience that the limescale nuisance has been minimized.

FACTS

water softening = ion exchange

water treatment plant for private homes that change the chemical composition of the water are marketed as water softening plants But ion exchange plants are a more precise term for these plants, as they reduce the water's content of limescale and thereby lowers the water hardness. Since most consumers are familiar with the term water softening plants , however, it is the one we use in this text.

dH = German hardness degree

The term for hardness, dH, that we use in Denmark comes from Germany and stands for Deutsche Härtegrade. According to the official Danish scale, so-called 'soft water' only has a hardness of 4-8 dH, while 0-4 is 'very soft', 8-12 is 'medium hard', 12-18 is 'fairly hard', 18-24 is 'hard', and 24-30 is 'very hard'. Water above 30 dH is 'very hard'.
