Regular salt softeners use the "ion exchange" technology which consists of replacing calcium and magnesium ions with sodium or potassium ions in water, by doing this you replace minerals with salt, this causes corrosive water and harm to the environment due to the large amounts brine sent to the drain.

How Does AMPForce Work?
Ampforce Technology is an environmentally friendly physical water treatment system that uses a high frequency-low voltage electric field on a stainless steel chamber with water as the conductor.

Hard water contains minerals like calcium and magnesium which are the cause of scale deposits on pipes, heating elements and machinery, these two minerals commonly exist as a carbonate crystal known as Calcite.
Calcite crystal shape and size can be changed by an electric field  to a different crystal   known as “Aragonite” which is physically unable to create scale deposits.

Aragonite is obtained using  Ampforce technology which does not remove minerals but transforms their physical properties to avoid scale deposits.
