Water softeners in Israel

Read Now

Bad news, but true water softeners are illegal for residential use in Israel.

Only water softeners that operate using salt physically remove calcium and magnesium. Every other so-called water softener conditions, or purportedly conditions, the water. Their efficacy, however, is the matter of much dispute as it is impossible to scientifically test the water and because many factors influence the results.

Many people are conned into purchasing/installing inexpensive filters containing poly-phosphate thinking that they will completely remove all the hardness and prevent any buildup of mineral deposits in the plumbing system. This is patently false!

I am not against installing poly-phosphate filters. I am against lying to customers about the efficacy of said filters.

Oh, and those magnets sold by washing machine technicians? Garbage.

Sorry for the cynicism but it is downright criminal to mislead your customer!

As always, it is important to educate yourself before you go ahead with a purchase.

At last someone who tells us the truth. I am ILLEGALLY filtering my water with salt with 99% mineral free build up in pipes (and kettle). Needless to say I have reverse osmosis filters for drinking . Thanks for being so frank and letting the public know the truth .

Numerous individuals are conned into acquiring, introducing cheap channels containing poly-phosphate imagining that they will totally evacuate all the hardness and keep any development of mineral stores in the pipes framework.

Residing the village lifestyle has its own benefits for those who plan to avoid the problems of urban surroundings.

This company in Arizona USA is selling a technology made in Israel.
See the below website. According to what I read on this site, it would seem this person is less than honest. I was considering purchasing one because it was made in Israel where they have real water problems. Our water is very hard but I don't need any BS.

An easy water softener won't offer you that type of protection. Metered water softeners are quite popular and they're mainly selected by many home owners. Demand-initiated regeneration water softeners can initiate the regeneration process by itself based on the degree of water consumption.

I add salt to my dishwasher in Jerusalem. Can I add salt to my washing machine? When I go to visit the US my laundry comes out great! In Israel always grey and dingy. What to do? Thanks
