Salt-Free Conditioner
Scale control without salt — and it is not a softener.
Changes how hardness minerals behave so they do not stick as scale, without removing them. No salt, no drain line, no regeneration. Worth being straight about the trade-off: the water will not feel soft and it will not stop soap scum, because the minerals are still in it. Right for some houses, wrong for others.
Best for: Homes that want scale control without adding salt
