1. It did not affect water pressure for us. 2. Yes. White spots on the floor has significantly reduced/eliminated 3. Definite improvement. Difference in Texture of hair after a shower is very noticeable

Thank you. Used to hate chemistry in school 😃

There is no limit for water softening. You can do it as frequently as needed. The Kent representative advised us that once in 2 weeks regeneration is sufficient, but my practical experience doesn't stand true to that. I have 2 if these at home and I regenerate weekly and I'm happy with the water quality. When I used to do the same one in 2 weeks, the water quality used to go back to being hard after 8 to 9 days. Again, it does depend on the actual quantity of water that is used.

@@PaiTech Ohk... thanks a lot for sharing your true experience with us🙏

@@nirjaa28 happy to help 😊

@@PaiTech 😁

@@PaiTech Hey sorry I have one more query what ppm level is good for hair and skin ? Is there any ideal range for it?

Our water pressure wasn't affected and continued to remain the same post installation of the softener

The softener doesn't help with TDS. TDS is used to measure quality of drinking water

Thank you.

It is lesser than 250.. The water needs to be let out during regeneration for 2 to 3 minutes. I did not do so diligently whilst shooting this video. My recent test gave me a value of less than 100. Its been 1.5 years since we've bought this and I've noticed that the frequency of regeneration has increased. I now have to do this process twice a week. But note that the water in my apartment is atrociously hard at 1200ppm.

I'm sorry. I'm from Bangalore and not aware if this is helpful for salty water.

@@PaiTech oh kk thank you

The term salty is erroneously used to imply hard water

I've used only this one. So I don't have much knowledge about other offerings.

@@PaiTech from how long you are using and is it worth to buy this

@@ashadeviks2655 Using for a year now. Definitely worth it considering the very hard water in our area

@paitech i am from Bangalore too . this water is for bathing, right ? what's the cost of it ? has your hair fall reduced ?

The results won't differ. The number of drops needed to measure the hardness beyond 500 will be more with this kit. Post regeneration the hardness reduces and hence I purchased this kit as it can give me required testing results. Hope that clarifies

@@PaiTech then they could have increased the limit and not made a seperate kit that goes to 1000. Also, 1000 ppm one uses steps of 50 and there is no 5-100 like yours has. I'm wondering whether the 450 is because the resin might have degenerated a bit. That will happen with time. How old was the softener when you did the test? If it was only a few months old then the test is inaccurate. Much older than it's not.

@@johndoe-vc1we Precisely. That’s why I went for this kit as I wanted to test in steps of 5. The softener was about 6 to 7 months old if I remember correctly. It’s been a while since I uploaded this video 😅 But yeah, the resin does degrade and I had to replace the same after 1 year. I’ve upgraded the model since then to an automatic and the company claims this one doesn’t need the resin to be changed at all. So fingers crossed!

@@PaiTech could you share which model you are using currently. If it has iron and manganese filters then you could see life reaching many years and beyond. If they say does not need to be changed then check the warranty. I bet it's exactly as long as the warranty is.

Uploading video on new model now.. Should be up by 8pm today :)

Added water. It is required to dissolve the salt. You can watch the video again and I’ve mentioned it. Thanks

@@PaiTech Apart from salt and water, I am asking about the solution from little light pink bottle that you are adding on 5:04 minute of time in the video.

Had not connected this to our washing machine. I've upgraded now to an automatic softener and both dishwasher and washing machine are connected.

@@PaiTech which model did you get and how about a review of that

Uploading video on new model now.. Should be up by 8pm today :)

@@PaiTech i'm interested to know how you managed laundry before you got the automatic softener. It means you were washing in hard water. Did your laundry turn out stiff? Clothes don't look good when washed in 700 ppm water.

Below 50 is considered as soft water

250 is still hard water and not good. The video was a little rushed and hence that result. After regeneration the water should be let out for 2 to 3 minutes. The device is capable of delivering a ppm of less than 25 which is very good

@@PaiTech Appreciate your clarification. Thank you very much.

@@PaiTech that is what i was wondering, have you tried using non iodised salt like plain industrial salt?

Can either use normal crystal salt or water softener salt. I have used both and don’t see much difference in water quality. So you can use normal crystal salt as it is significantly cheaper and available in local stores.

There is no change in the water pressure post installation. If you're referring to the water pressure in this video, I ran it slow to collect just 10 ml of water to perform the test and did not want to waste water

So,all the result is wrong.whats the use of watching the whole video then,should have thoroughly checked before making video.

@@parveshvu1736 the test can be performed using TH3 or TH5 based on water hardness level. So it's not really wrong. The end value may differ by a small margin. But the gist of the video is pretty clear, which is reduction of water hardness

Depends on usage. Company says once in 15 days. However, I would suggest once in a week for 2 people using the same bathroom.

Have you only connected your geyser to this? Or entire bathroom? My bathroom inlet pipe also supplies to the flush tank. Considering that, how frequently do u think this needs to be done for 2 folks using the bathroom!

I've connected to the entire bathroom. 2 of us use it. The water seems to get hard after about 7 days. I recommend regeneration every week for sustained soft water

@@PaiTech got it. Thanks. Entire bathroom including flush tank right? (Asking as some apartments have a separate ftp line for flush tanks)

We have a separate wtp line too. So it's not connected to the flush. You might have to regenerate once in 5 days or so. I won't be able to replicate the scenario to give you an accurate answer

AQUASOL Plastic Total Hardness 250 Test Kit, 5-500mg/L (Blue) amzn.eu/d/bTizcrv

No

@@PaiTech so any solution to remove smell of water

Lol. Your hate comment doesn't matter. Like I've said before, I've got nothing to gain from posting fake information. I'm using this softener for the last 1.2 years or so and wanted to share its performance. If you don't want to believe it, then enjoy your hard water and it's amazing affects to your health. All the best!

Also, you've subscribed to so many motivational speakers and saints. One would think they would have had some positive affect on your language. But alas, lost cause. Peace!

Yes. If the same waterline is connected to your geyser and washing machine. Please keep in mind that you may have to frequently perform regeneration and washing machine consumes lot of water.

Every week if 2 people use it to get best results. 3 months is out of the question

TDS is measured for drinking water. For normal water the medium of measure is not TDS. You have to measure the total hardness, which can be measured using the Aquasol test kit as shown in the video. For drinking water KENT or other RO filter needs to be used

It's not fake. But I leave it to you. I'm not a pro and I don't have any help in shooting these videos. It gets difficult to frame. The channel is too small for sponsored content and I have nothing to gain posting fake reviews.
