The CUZN WHCCR7-13H is a salt-free water softening replacement filter media designed for use in whole-house water filtration systems. It's intended to be installed alongside a whole-house filter in cases where the water has high hardness, exceeding 8 grains of hardness or 137 ppm.
Here's a breakdown of what makes it relevant:
High Hardness Treatment: This filter is specifically for tackling water with high levels of calcium and magnesium, which are the minerals that cause hardness.
Salt-Free Technology: Unlike traditional salt-based water softeners, the WHCCR7-13H uses a salt-free anti-scale media. This technology reshapes hardness ions so they don't form scale, but remain in the water.
Replacement Media: It's a replacement filter media, meaning it's designed to be used with an existing filtration system, not as a standalone unit.
Prevents Scale: The primary goal of the WHCCR7-13H is to prevent the buildup of scale in plumbing and appliances, which can reduce water flow and pressure and increase energy costs.
Maintains Beneficial Minerals: Because it's salt-free, it doesn't remove the calcium and magnesium, allowing the potential health benefits of these minerals to remain in the water.
Cost: The replacement filter media for the WHCCR7-13H costs $359.95.
