Salt-Free Water Conditioner
No salt, no drain, no maintenance — keeps the minerals in.
A conditioner rather than a softener. It stops hardness minerals from sticking to your pipes, water heater and fixtures, so you get the scale protection without adding salt to your water or your diet. Worth being clear about the trade-off: it prevents scale, it does not remove hardness.
Best for: Households avoiding salt, or homes with no drain access
