4 WHAT IS HARD WATER? Hard water is the root cause of many problems in modern households. The majority of families will deal with the undesired consequences of (too) hard water sooner or later. SAY NO TO HARD WATER But what is meant when we talk about hard water? All water including our drinking water comes from precipitation (rain or snow). Even mineral water has at some point fallen from the sky. The hardness of the water depends on the route the rainwater has travelled. Water absorbs impurities during its journey on the surface and beneath the ground. Two of these impurities the minerals calcium and magnesium make the water hard. Some effects of magnesium and calcium, which we usually refer to as lime, on water are generally known. Hard water causes lime scale in the kitchen and the bathroom that is difficult to remove. Lime scale, in turn, affects the durability of some appliances. But there s more... SOFT WATER IMPROVES YOUR DAILY LIFE IN MANY DIFFERENT WAYS Every part of your kitchen feels the harmful effects of hard water: the dishwasher, water heater, coffee machine, taps, pots and pans... Even the surfaces of your bathroom will clearly show that you ve got hard water: the sinks, bath, and tiles will turn white with lime scale before you know it. Have you ever tried scrubbing away these lime scale and soap stains? It s a nightmare... Why does your washing machine have a separate compartment for fabric softener? Just take the test and try drying yourself with a towel washed without a fabric softener. Coarse, isn t it? 4 STRONG IN PERFORMANCE

5 REASONS TO START FILTERING AND SOFTENING YOUR WATER 1 Softened water feels different. You ll clearly notice the difference to your skin and hair. Shaving, for example, will go a lot quicker with soft water, and you ll have a shorter, sharper shave. Your hair will shine after showering, and have a silky, smooth feel. 6 Softened water increases the lifespan and efficiency of your water-heating equipment and will lower your energy bill. Hard water causes lime scale in appliances and pipes. The lime scale will continue to build up, leading to energy bills up to 20 percent higher, and will eventually cause defects. 2 Filtered, softened water tastes better, as well. The differences are subtle, but undeniable. Just compare it to the way towels washed in hard or soft water feel on your skin. 7 What is true for the heating and the washing machine is also true for any domestic appliances that have to deal with hard water: softened water increases the lifespan of these appliances and decreases costs of repairs and replacements. 3 Those hard towels are the ones people are most familiar with. The same goes for the rest of your laundry. Washing with soft water means your clothing and linen will last longer. Everything feels softer and you ll need less detergent to achieve the same result. 4 You ll be able to save up to 50 percent on various products: detergents, fabric softeners, shampoos, polishes and abrasives, scrubbers and sponges... 5 The biggest profit of all, time, is priceless: you ll be wasting less of your free time scrubbing and scraping the lime scale. Cleaning will be a lot quicker and easier. 5

9 IRON FILTER WATER SHOULD NOT CONTAIN IRON Why would you want the iron removed? Because you want crystal clear, odourless water. And because you know what the effects of iron in water can be. Water containing iron typically has a reddish/brownish colour. This is the most evident disadvantage. Iron in water also gives it a metal taste, which is far from appetizing. The presence of iron in water can cause brownish stains on your dishes, laundry, taps and sinks. These stains are unwanted guests. Even without the rusty, unpalatable colour, (tap) water can still contain an excessive level of iron, in a dissolved state or as minuscule iron particles. Choosing Maxima s iron filter means you want the best. The Maxima iron filter combines sustainability with user friendliness. It will filter all iron (Fe2+) and manganese (Mn2+) contamination out of the water. It has a modern and user-friendly control panel. It functions without the use of hazardous chemicals. The filter media only needs to be automatically rinsed periodically. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS OPERATING PRESSURE BAR OPERATING TEMPERATURE C ELECTRICAL CONNECTION V/Hz MAX.

11 WHOLE HOUSE FILTER DRINKING WATER AND SANITARY WATER NEED TO BE PERFECTLY FILTERED Cooking, drinking, cleaning, bathing... Water plays a vital role in our houses as well as our bodies.

13 ABOUT US Erie manufacturing company was founded on January 9th, 1943 when Henry Alfrey purchased the machinery and assets of a small manufacturing company at 200 East Erie Street in Milwaukee, Wisconsin (USA). Although the first products were emergency oxygen systems for military aircraft, Erie soon became a pioneer and innovator in devices to control flows, for application in oxygen, HVAC and water treatment systems. In 1947 Erie was the very first company ever in the world, to develop and manufacture an auto matic regeneration control valve for ion exchange water softeners. Shortly after the turn of the century, after almost 60 years of development and manufacture of control valves, the strategic decision was taken to focus on complete water treatment systems and solutions, for use in a wide range of applications, like residential, commercial hospitality,...
