Kinetico Water Conditioners
and Combination Systems
Now that your Kinetico water system is installed, you can enjoy all the
benefits of having soft water. If you are not accustomed to soft water, here
are some tips to follow to get the most benefit from your new system:
How to use soft water
1
Use pure soap products.
Most leading brands of laundry soaps, household cleaners and shampoos
contain large amounts of detergents. The harsh chemicals in these deter-
gents are necessary when using hard water, but you can reduce your use
or eliminate them altogether with soft water. We recommend you use
pure soap products; clear liquid soaps without dyes and perfumes. If you
continue to use your normal detergents, you should significantly reduce
the amount used. Your local, authorized Kinetico dealer can provide
you with more information and recommended detergent amounts.
2
Use less soap and household cleaners.
When using soap or cleaners with soft water, start by cutting the amount
of soap you normally use in half. You may even find you can use as little
as one-quarter the amount you were using before. Hardness minerals
in water interfere with soap's cleaning ability. Once they are removed,
soap can do its job better. Even though you'll use less soap, you'll get more
suds and cleaner results.
It's especially important to reduce the amount of laundry soap you use.
Washing clothes in soft water not only means you'll need less soap to
get your clothes clean, but also that the soap you do use will rinse out
com-pletely. Washing in soft water makes your clothes look whiter and
brighter, and they'll last longer too. It is very important not to let your
clothes sit in the washer after the cycle is complete. Detergent buildup
can stain your clothing. Again, Kinetico recommends that you use clear,
liquid soaps, without dyes or perfumes.
After bathing in soft water, your skin should feel "slippery." It's not soap left
on your skin. What you're feeling is your own smooth skin without any
leftover soap curd or residue. When you bathed in hard water, you were
never able to rinse this residue off completely. The soap curd that left a
