7 reasons to choose an alternative to water softening plants
With LAGUR We are often asked why one should choose an alternative to another. water softening plants We have collected it here.
1. LAGUR IS THE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY ALTERNATIVE TO water softening
LAGUR fundamentally differs from the so-called water softening plants (i.e. ion exchange plants) by not reducing the water's lime content and by not using chemistry in the process. LAGUR breaks down the ability of lime to deposit. This is done through a patented method that transforms the structure of the lime grains from calcite to aragonite. In this process, the lime changes form from sharp crystals (calcite), which adhere easily to surfaces and in installations, to a granular, rounded form (aragonite). On the contrary water softening plants reduces LAGUR That is, not the water hardness levels – even if you will experience it that way in everyday life.
2. LAGUR HAS MINIMAL ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION
LAGUR consists of a pipe that is connected to the building's main water supply and is connected to a control unit , which uses very little power. LAGUR HOME for detached houses uses approximately 2 kWh per week, while LAGUR PRO for businesses and apartment buildings use approximately 1 kWh per day.
3. LAGUR KEEPING WATER HEALTHY AND TASTY
In a water softening plants Salt is included in the process, which increases the treated water's sodium (salt) content, which we already consume too much of according to health recommendations. LAGUR does not use salt or other substances, but instead preserves the water's natural composition and good taste.
4. LAGUR DOES NOT REQUIRE FILLING, MAINTENANCE OR SERVICE
A LAGUR system is completely maintenance-free, as, unlike water softening plants does not require cleaning or refilling with salt, and you do not need a service contract. In comparison, a regular water softening plants in addition to electricity, typically one kilo of salt per 1,000 liters of water. It doesn't sound like much, but an average apartment uses 80 cubic meters of water per year, so that amounts to 80 kg of salt per apartment. If you are an association with 50 apartments, that amounts to no less than 4 tons of salt per year.
5. LAGUR MAKE YOUR CLEANING EASIER
As LAGUR changes the structure of limescale , so that limescale does not stick to surfaces and installations to nearly the same extent as untreated water, it becomes easier to clean, and your white goods and other installations last longer. Instead of settling, the limescale settles on the surface without binding and can be wiped away more easily. This reduces the need for harsh cleaning agents if, for example, you wipe the tiles in the shower regularly.
6. LAGUR DIRECTLY SUPPORTS THE UN'S GLOBAL GOALS
LAGUR is designed to minimize limescale problems for private and professional use without burdening our common planet. LAGUR directly supports three of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals: Clean Water and Sanitation (No. 6), Responsible Consumption and Production (No. 12) and Life in the Sea (No. 14). With its locally produced systems in Denmark, with its low power consumption and, unlike water softening plants not using salt and chemicals reduces LAGUR also the carbon footprint we create when we want a home without limescale problems . LAGUR does not use extra water in the process and does not discharge wastewater with chemical residues.
7. LAGUR CREATES CALM IN YOUR WATER PIPES
limescale has a sealing effect, but water pipes do not become more leaky when a LAGUR -system is switched on and changes the shape of the lime. The effect is the opposite, because LAGUR usually primarily removes the irregularities on the inside of the pipe. This reduces turbulence in the water and ensures a calmer flow and better water pressure. Due to the changed structure of the lime from crystals to granules, the lime settles in LAGUR -water does not settle on the inside of the pipe to the same extent as untreated water. Instead, the flow of LAGUR -treated water like fine sandpaper against limescale formations on the inside of the pipe.
