Size

The Kinetico Softener is flexible enough  to fit where you want it to go. It is small enough to fit underneath most sinks and yet have the capacity to soften sufficient water for the largest household.

We can also fit it externally in a frost resistant cabinet if space is tight.

We can advise on the best location when we carry out the free site survey.

Running Costs

A water softener needs to measure accurately the water flowing through it to ensure it regenerates at exactly the right time. If it doesn't hard water can creep back into your system and destroy all the benefits that soft water gives you, or it can waste salt by regenerating too early.

It utilises the unique Kinetico valve, using a turbine and gears to measure the amount of water used and determines when a regeneration is needed. Since it regenerates only on demand, it won't waste water or salt.

Uninterrupted soft water

Conventional  water softeners had only one cylinder. This meant that soft water is interrupted when the softener regenerates. these single cylinder models were also larger.

The benefits of two cylinders means that the softener can give uninterrupted soft water at high flow rates, regeneration also acts as a backwash through the cylinder meaning less water going down the drain. The 2020c only use 19 litres to regenerate.

Salt blocks or bags

The the block salt concept was introduced in 1995 as a more convenient way to load water softeners with salt. Up until then salt came as tablets or granules in heavy causing 25Kg bags. These tended to be messy to load.

In contrast the Blocks weigh only 4Kg and slip easily into the compartments. Salt usage can be checked by just lifting lid of the softener. Storage of blocks is much easier and efficient than bags. However if you prefer the Kinetico softener can use Tablet salt.

No electricity required

The Kinetico 2020c water softener does not require electricity to operate. It uses the water pressure and flow to carry out all its functions.

Value for Money

The Kintetico is not the cheapest softner on the market but it is one of the best water softeners we know. Inour view it offers excellent value when comparing the price to their features. The reliability of the units means that long term ownership cost are low too.

We try and help keep down the price by offering the softener to our customers at a competitive price including installation.
