the life of costly filters. Clean up of tiled surfaces
at pool-side becomes a snap without hard scale
deposits.
With softer water, the amount of chemicals
required to “shock” the water is significantly
reduced. The pH of the water becomes more stable
allowing for a more easily maintained chemical
balance. Chemicals such as chlorine and bromine
can often be reduced by 25% to 40%. The
increased wetness of the water makes chlorine and
bromine become more effective in eliminating
bacteria in the water.
Landscaping and Gardens
Calcium is a primary nutrient for healthy plants,
lawns, flowers and trees. It is also an important
element in soil chemistry. Calcium that has been
processed by the Soo~Soft Digital System no
longer forms into hard crystals that can clog the
delicate cellular system of plants. This soft
calcium is more easily carried by water and
absorbed by plants. Studies have shown an
increase in growth and more robust fruit yield
from plants grown from water treated in this
manner.
Large calcium crystals can inhibit water uptake in
plant root systems. Increased water uptake and
greater availability of soft calcium as a result of
the effects of the Soo~Soft system have a positive
effect on plant health by contributing to stronger
cellular walls and plant structure. The softer form
of calcium also reduces tip burn in lawns and
plants. Lawns become green and lush similar to
the effects that come from pure rainwater.
Plant growth in sandy soils with high sodium
content is enhanced by the Soo~Soft process. Salts
are more effectively washed from the soil due to
the increased “wetness” of the water. In soil with
high clay content it has been reported that
magnetically treated water helps to expand clumps
of clay into finer particles which promotes the
movement of soil nutrients to plant root systems
resulting in greater nutrient uptake by the plant.
Salt-type water softening systems can actually
damage lawns and plants with excessive salt build
up. This can accumulate and inhibit healthy plant
growth. Vendors of salt-based softeners generally
advise installation of a “bypass” for water used in
gardening. With the Soo~Soft system there is no
need for the additional cost and installation of a
“bypass”. The Soo~Soft treated water can help
your lawn grow greener and lusher.
Sprinkler Systems
Sprinkler heads (just like shower heads) can
clog due to scale build-up from hard water.
The Soo~Soft system will help sprinkler
heads to clear existing build-up, and extend
their useful life by keeping them scale-free.
Benefits are also realized in systems with
dedicated irrigation pumps. These pumps will
experience fewer failures related to mineral
fouling and impeller/seal wear.
Waterfalls, Fountains, & Ponds
A separate Soo~Soft system will be required for
recirculating waterfalls and fountains. If the
Soo~Soft unit is to be installed outside, it must be
