Water Softener Myth No. 2 The amount of sodium in softened water is unhealthy. How much sodium a water softener adds to your water depends on how hard your home’s water is in the first place. That being said, the typical amount of sodium in softened water is too small to have any sort of negative impact on your health. The Mayo Clinic states on its website that the added sodium shouldn’t be an issue for most healthy adults.... Check out the chart below. It compares the amount of sodium in softened water to common foods. As you can see, soft water adds a small amount of sodium to your diet when compared to everything else we eat. However, not everyone likes the taste of softened water, but they don’t want to deal with hard water problems either. Thankfully, there are options. You could separate the tap you use for drinking and cooking from your system while still getting the advantages of soft water for cleaning, bathing, and laundry.

Despite the snow storm we are open today. Deliveries will continue but please give us time to complete them as the roads are messy. We will try to get to everyone by tomorrow afternoon.

There are many misconceptions about water softeners today's myth is: Water softeners put salt in your water. It’s easy to understand why people make this mistake. However, you are not drinking salt water if you install a water softener in your home.... It’s true that you you’ll need water softener salts, but you shouldn’t taste salt in your water. Water softeners use an ion exchange process to remove minerals like calcium and magnesium, which make the water hard. A special media stored in a mineral tank makes this process possible. That media is charged with sodium ions, which replace the hard minerals in your water. So it isn’t salt (NaCl) that gets added to your water, it’s sodium (Na).

While at the National Radon convention Health Canada set up a display in a vapour chamber to show how fast the alpha particles move during the radioactive decay of Radon, the part that causes lung cancer. The speed at which the lines appear in the vapour chamber are amazing. It may not seem like much; however, at a DNA cellular level this can cause lots of damage.
