So you have hard water, but want to be conscious about water conservation? If so, a softener is not right for you. They waste 2000 gallons or more of water a year in backflow! This just isn't ok when conserving water.
Average Water Hardness for New Mexico = 205 PPM (yep, that's pretty high!)
Instead, Cactus Rain offers the HydroFLOW. This Device eliminates hard water issues by keeping your pipes and water heating appliances clean inside, saving you money on repairs, cleaning, & heating costs.

The Problems Associated With The Use Of Conventional Water Softeners
- Waste some 2,000 gallons of water a year! This just isn't ok when conserving water.
- Water softeners utilizing salt have a detrimental effect on the environment and drinking water quality
- Initial cost, running costs, size, consumption (water / salt / power)
- Footprint in utility room
- The overall inconvenience of maintenance and operation: carrying salt bags, dosing etc.
- Interruptions in water supply during backwashing cycles
Issues With Scale Build Up In The Home
- Affects system pressure and reduces flow rates
- Raises energy costs as scale insulates and reduces the efficiency of water heating appliances such as boilers, hot water tank heaters, tankless water heaters, coffee machines, kettles etc.
- Leaves unsightly deposits around baths, showers, sinks and toilets particularly around showerheads and faucets. This often requires tiresome cleaning with poisonous descaling chemicals.
