How Hamilton's Hard Water Affects Your Plumbing System

What Makes the Excalibur Chlor-A-Soft Stand Out
The Excalibur Water Systems Chlor-A-Soft is not a standard water softener. It is built to do more with less. Traditional softeners burn through salt and water. This system uses 80% less salt, as little as 2.5 lbs per regeneration, and only 17 gallons of water per cycle. The fully programmable electronic design measures your exact water usage so nothing is wasted.
The unit includes self-diagnostic service features so you always know how the system is running. A power outage protective cell keeps your settings safe, and the 12 Volt AC system costs less than $3 per year to run. The compact one-piece cabinet fits neatly in most utility spaces. This system is designed for municipal water supplies only.
What Hamilton's Municipal Water Does to Your Home
Hamilton’s municipal water supply is treated and safe to drink, but it still carries hardness minerals, chlorine, and in some cases, clear water iron. Whether you are in a older home near James Street North, a newer build in Ancaster, or anywhere along the King Street corridor, those minerals are quietly building up inside your pipes, water heater, and appliances. Hard water is one of the most common reasons appliances wear out faster than they should. A chlor a soft water softener addresses these issues at the source before they become expensive problems.
