LAGUR is the chemical-free alternative to water softening plant
If you choose LAGUR® rather than a classic water softening plant, you avoid unnecessary use of chemicals and salt.
At the same time, LAGUR® certified under the Danish Social and Housing Authority's approval of building products under the official designation, ' approved for drinking water ', so you can safely drink the water once the system is installed.
Why you should choose a chemical-free alternative to water softening plant
environmentally friendly alternative
LAGUR does not reduce the water's lime content and does not use chemistry in the process, instead the system simply changes the structure of limescale .
Minimal electricity consumption
LAGUR connected to the building's main water supply and connected to a control unit , which uses very little power. LAGUR Home uses approximately 2 kWh per week.
Good drinking water
Opposite water softening plants , uses LAGUR not salt and thereby preserves the good taste and natural composition of the water.
No maintenance
LAGUR The system is completely maintenance-free, as it requires neither filling with salt nor cleaning.
Easier cleaning
With LAGUR The limescale does not stick to surfaces, and it is therefore easy to wipe off with a cloth, so you don't have to use harsh cleaning agents.
UN Sustainable Development Goals
LAGUR is put into place to minimize limescale problems without burdening our planet and supports: Clean Water and Sanitation (No. 6), Responsible Consumption and Production (No. 12) and Life in the Sea (No. 14)
Calm in the water pipes
LAGUR removes irregularities on the inside of the water pipes, which reduces turbulence in the water, ensures smoother flow and better water pressure.
Free from chemicals
Opposite water softening plants , you get away with it LAGUR to use chemistry in your water treatment and in your cleaning, where you can avoid using harsh cleaning agents.
Your chemical-free and environmentally friendly alternative
Danish drinking water is among the absolute best in the world. limescale , fluoride and all minerals are as they should be, and this must of course be maintained.
In short and simple terms, our LAGUR® - water treatment system the ability of lime to settle - this without chemical softeners, i.e. 100% chemical-free.
It is crucial for us that Danish water does not lose its status and quality; and it does so with chemical softeners, where limescale - and the magnesium content is reduced and the sodium content increases.
Chemical water softening of hard water we seem to have LAGUR is a really bad solution to get rid of limescale problems .
With LAGUR we say: No chemical influence on natural limescale - and mineral content as well as the taste of the water.
LAGUR is your guarantee for good drinking water
LAGUR® is certified under the Danish Transport and Construction Authority's approval of building products under the official designation, ' approved for drinking water '.
We recommend that the installation of your LAGUR® - water treatment plant is carried out by your regular plumbing supplier, who is familiar with your installations. LAGUR® -the water treatment system is installed after the main water meter and is connected to a control unit .

How LAGUR works
LAGUR minimizes your limescale problems by changing the the structure of limescale and not just by breaking down the lime into smaller parts. LAGUR thus uses a completely different method than the solutions on the market that crush or split the lime.
The basic structure of lime is crystalline, which means that regardless of size, the lime naturally has sharp edges, so it adheres easily to surfaces and in installations. LAGUR transforms the structure of limescale from sharp crystals to round granules that adhere minimally in installations and settle on surfaces as dust that is easy to rinse away or remove with a cloth.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How does it LAGUR and water softening affect the taste and chemistry of the water?
LAGUR does not change the water's chemistry or taste – all natural minerals are preserved and the water's conductivity remains unchanged.
Â
water softening plants on the other hand, it significantly changes the composition of the water by removing calcium and magnesium and adding sodium, which changes both the taste and the chemical balance of the water.
How much salt does water softening plants use? – and does LAGUR use salt at all?
LAGUR uses no salts or chemicals.
Â
A water softening plants on the other hand, uses around 1 kg of salt per 1 m³ of water, which corresponds to 60–80 kg of salt annually per apartment.
Â
In a larger building, this can amount to over 20 tons of salt – equivalent to 20 pallets – each year.
What is the difference in the amount of wastewater LAGUR and water softening plants ?
LAGUR does not emit any amounts of wastewater.
Â
A water softening plants on the other hand, typically discharges around 5% of total water consumption as wastewater.
Â
