Reuseable Water Bottles Are A Healthy Choice
You have an RO System in your home, but for on-the-go are you still using bottled water? Have you considered saving money and the environment by using a reusable water bottle instead?

Should I Get A 4 or 5 Stage Reverse Osmosis System?
Reverse Osmosis Systems typically come in two models: 4-Stage or 5-Stage.
First, an explanation of the stages of an RO system which consists of the membrane, pre-treatment filters and post treatment filters.
What is the difference and which one is right for you?
First, an explanation of the stages of an RO system which consists of the membrane, pre-treatment filters and post treatment filters.
The first stage is a seatmate filter. This is a 5-micron filter. This filter catches the bigger particles in the water.

What about "No-Salt" Water Conditioners?
The new whole house water conditioners are all the rage. Infomericials about them promise low maintenance, no salt softened water. But can you really stop buying salt and get the same results as you get with a traditional water softener?
The advertising for a no-salt system draws you in. Who wouldn't want to stop buying salt? But what the advertising doesn't tell you is that you will not get the same sustaining results without the salt.
The “No-Salt” type systems include magnets, electro-magnets, electrical frequency, and crystallization polymers. All of these systems claim to change the structure of hardness minerals that prevents scale from forming. Many have only supplied information that is generated from within their companies. Some may refer to “Customer Successes”, but it is being reported from within.
The main problem with all no-salt systems is that you can’t verify that they are doing anything. There is not a test that can show a difference in water before and after the treatment. There is not a detectable difference in the feel of the water, the reaction with soaps, or with laundry. The water before and after the treatment is the same.
The use of salt is a great tradeoff to problems caused by hard water. Soft water reduces energy consumption used to heat water, saves appliances from un-necessary wear, reduces soaps, and eliminates the need for harsh cleaning products. These claims are not internally generated, hyperbole, they are known facts and confirmed by various third party testing. All of these benefits are achieved with something natural we get from the ground called salt.
In summary, dig deep for the facts. If you want soft water, you can’t get it from “No-Salt” water conditioners. If you love soft water, and you want minimal salt consumption, and you still want to get a great shower, it can all be done with a water softener from PB&J Water.

So that leaves you with one claimed benefit, scale prevention. The problem with this is that you can’t see inside of the plumbing. So you can’t know if it is having any effect on scaling. You are left to have faith that scale is not forming inside your plumbing. You can’t see it, verify it, or prove the PWC is working. If you disconnect a water softener, and install any PWC, you will immediately get white crust forming all over your fixtures. You will also immediately lose the soft water feel while bathing.

Reverse Osmosis in Lake Havasu City
An RO System has many benefits. It is fresher than stagnate bottle water and still has some minerals which are beneficial for your health. RO Systems are inexpensive compared to regularly buying & carrying bottled water and they are eco-friendly!
RO is the most convenient and effective method of water filtration. It filters water by squeezing water through a semi-permeable membrane, which is rated at 0.0001 micron (equals to 0.00000004 inch!). This is the technology used to make bottled water, it is also the only technology capable of desalinating sea water, making it into drinking water.
Non-RO water filters typically use a single activated carbon cartridge to treat water. They are much less effective, and the pore size on these filter media are much bigger, generally 0.5 – 10 micron. They can filter out coarse particles, sediments and elements only up to their micron rating. Anything finer and most dissolved substances cannot be filtered out. As a result, water is far less clean and safe compared to reverse osmosis filtration.

Benefits Of Adding A Calcite Filter in Lake Havasu City
Have you heard the buzz about how it’s better to drink alkaline or pH balanced water?
Drinking alkaline water acts as an antioxidant, it balances the body’s pH levels, and enhances your immune system. In some studies alkaline therapy or pH therapy slows or stops cancer progression. It’s something we all should be aware of.
Having a Reverse Osmosis system to purify your drinking water is an excellent choice for having good water to drink right on tap at your home. We see the convenience for cooking, pet water, ice makers and of course, filling your reusable BPA-free water bottle.
But did you know Reverse Osmosis good purified water can be acidic? People with some health concerns should not drink acidic water and those who are concerned about gaining health benefits from drinking water need to consider adding a calcite filter to their RO system, to put back the minerals that balance the water pH levels.
And the immediate benefit of adding a calcite filter is improved water taste.
Calcite is a naturally occurring calcium carbonate media made from crushed and screened white marble. When a calcite filter is applied, the pH is corrected to reach a non-corrosive equilibrium and acidic waters raise the pH. PB&J recommends changing a calcite filter annually along with the sediment, carbon block, and finishing filters in your reverse osmosis system.

Water Softener Systems
Hard water is water that is contaminated with dissolved minerals:
Calcium, magnesium, sulfur, iron, lead and limestone – these can have a negative impact on you, your household and your pocketbook. Depending on where you live, contaminants from sewage, industrial waste and agricultural run-off can also seep into your water supply.
Hard water produces scale:
If there are stains or buildup on your sinks and bathtubs, if you have to use large amounts of soap to clean dishes or wash your hair or if your water tastes or smells odd, you probably have hard water. If left untreated, the minerals in hard water will cause yellow stains on plumbing fixtures and be deposited as scale, eventually clogging plumbing and shortening the life of appliances like washing machines, water heaters and dishwashers. Scale deposits not only cut down on the efficiency of these appliances, they cost you money, increasing both energy and maintenance bills.
Water softeners eliminate the effects of hard water:
They “soften” the water by removing the calcium and magnesium found there, extending the useful life of water heaters, washing machines, dishwashers, coffeemakers, humidifiers and household plumbing systems by as much as 30%.
