The True Standard
For the past century, salt-based water softeners have universally been used to treat hard water. With advanced technology, the Sterling Water Conditioner has replaced out dated salt-based water softeners with the safe, effective, environmentally friendly solution for hard water problems. |
Safe
 |
Independently tested and approved by ETL as complaint with UL 979 and UL 73. |
 |
Safe for use in drinking water and complies with the toxicity requirements in NSF 61. |
 |
Sterling conditioned water can be used on household and garden plants. |
 |
Independently tested an approved by IAPMO Testing & Services as an effective treatment for hard water problems. |
 |
Calcium carbonate, the dissolved mineral compound that causes hard water, does not form scale build up in pipes, fixtures and surfaces. |
|
Environmentally Friendly
|
Energy and water conservation enhances home value. |
|
Uses no salt or other additives and does not waste water through regeneration or backwashing. |
|
Approximately 250,000,000,000 gallons of fresh water are contaminated each year in the U.S. as a result of backwashing media regenerated by salt-based water softeners. |
|
High levels of chlorides have led to salt-based water softener bans across the United States. |
|
|
Homeowners can expect the following benefits from a Sterling Water Conditioner
 |
Continuous laundering of clothes in hard water reduces the life of the clothing. |
 |
The Sterling Water Conditioner removes scale and scum, prolonging the life of dishwashers, washing machines and bath and kitchen fixtures. |
 |
Hard water drops from dish and window washing can be easily removed. |
 |
Sterling water can be safely used on household and garden plants. |
 |
Using a Sterling Water Conditioner will increase the efficiency of ice makers, reducing the problems of sticking, which causes ice reduction and ice sliding resistance, and flooding, which causes constant leakage. |
 |
When used in conjunction with a reverse osmosis system, a Sterling Water Conditioner provides clean, pure drinking water. |
 |
A Sterling Water Conditioner is specifically engineered to only operate when water flows. For the Conditioner to run for an hour a day would add approximately 15 cents to the monthly electric bill. A Sterling Water Conditioner uses the same amount of electricity as a 25-watt light bulb. |
|
Did You Know?
|
According to the U.S. Geological Survey, 85% of the United States has hard water. |
|
The average American uses 90 gallons of water per day. |
|
The Sterling Conditioner is the first to pass the anti-scale testing and performance requirements set forth in IAPMO's IGC-91. |
|
A study conducted by New Mexico State University demonstrated that hard water scale build up can reduce a water heaters efficiency by 29%. |
|
With a salt-based water softener, sodium is added to the water at a ratio of 7.8 mg/L for each grain of hardness treated. Chloride is also added to regenerated water at the same ratio. |
|
The Sterling Water Conditioner retains natural calcium without the addition of sodium. |
|
Across the United States, traditional salt-based water softeners are being banned due to hazardous chloride discharge. The Sterling Water Conditioner utilizes no chlorides, which need to be discharged. |
|
One percent of the Earth's water is usable to humans; the remaining 99% is salt water and fresh water held up in icebergs. The Conditioner saves usable fresh water wasted in regenerating salt-based water softeners. |
