Why
should I buy from RWS?
Simple. We offer the best systems available
at affordable prices. Hague Quality Water provides patented technology
coupled with the strongest warranty in the industry and has been doing
so since 1960! Don't settle for an 'assembled' product, buy from a
multi-national, family run company that uses state of the art
manufacturing processes. Each system is fully tested before leaving the
plant.
RWS
is also a member of the Better Business Bureau.
RWS has
never had any complaints --many
of our competitors cannot make that claim!
Isn’t water just water?
Actually, there are three types of water. There is Utility
Grade Water, Working Grade Water and Drinking Water. Utility
grade water is water suited for watering your lawn and plants.
It usually requires no water treatment. Working Grade Water
needs to be higher quality because it runs through your
plumbing, fixtures and water-using appliances. To make these
essential household systems last longer and save you money,
treated water is needed. Drinking Water is a key component of
our lives. Since 70% of the human body is water, the water we
drink and cook with must be the highest quality.
Do I need to get my water tested?
Yes. The test should include a minimum of hardness, iron,
and pH. Your independent Hague dealer has the equipment to
test your water accurately. The Hague representative can
also demonstrate the value of clean, soft water – and the
cost of untreated water.
Can WaterMax® be installed outside?
Outdoor installation is common in temperate climates.
WaterMax® is designed with UV-resistant materials to allow
outdoor installation. RWS will choose the best overall location for your equipment
to be installed -- and NOT just simply the easiest location.
See
examples here.
Do I have to change filters in the WaterMax®?
Never. The whole-house sediment filter is built-in and
self-cleaning. Every time the system recharges, dirt and
sediment are sent down the drain.
What if I go on
vacation or have guests?
Because of the WaterMax® Systems Control, you do not have to
change, alter or modify anything. If no water is used, there
will not be a recharge. If you have guests, you may have
additional recharges.
Why don’t all water treatment manufacturers offer a 25 year warranty?
Quality. Nobody beats Hague’s quality. Ask your independent
Hague dealer for a copy.
Does WaterMax® add salt water
to my water?
No. Salt or salt substitute is used to recharge WaterMax®.
During this process, salt, hardness, iron, etc. is washed down
the drain.
Does RWS service all brands?
RWS
services most brands of water conditioners. If we do not service your
particular brand, we will assist you in finding a company familiar with
your brand.
Does
RWS
provide financing?
RWS offers a variety of financing. We
offer the following:
- Visa, M/C, Discover, AMEX
- Revolving credit (special
promotions frequently available)
- In-house programs
Will carbon filtration
soften your water?
Some companies claim to have an activated
carbon filter that softens the feel of water using an "energy cell"
employing some form of "advanced quantum physics". There is, of course,
no quantitative data on how well this works, and none of their
claims have any scientific support.
What is
an electronic precipitator?
|

|
Electronic Precipitators -
Some
unethical water treatment companies use a dramatic demonstration with an
"electric precipitator." This machine resembles a coffee pot
in which two metallic electrodes (metal rods) are placed.
The demonstration produces a dark sludge, which is caused by
electricity decomposing the rods. The electric precipitator
device is a sham, but it is a convincing sales tool
because of its visual shock effect. |

Why choose a product with NSF
certification? ->> direct statement from the
NSF web
site.
Credibility is what NSF Certification is all about.
NSF uses the terms "certified" or "listed" in connection with a
product, good, component, system, material, compound or ingredient
("Product"). A Product that is certified or listed means that NSF:
(1) reviewed the Product, most often through a sampling of the
Product; (2) determined at the time of the review that the Product
complies with the relevant NSF consensus standard and/or protocol
("Standard"); and (3) conducted or will conduct (as more
specifically set forth in the Standard) periodic audits to review
whether the Product continues to comply with the Standard. After NSF
certifies or lists the Product, NSF authorizes the manufacturer of
the Product to use the NSF Mark on or in connection with the sale,
use or distribution of that Product. The NSF Mark conveys that an
independent, third-party organization (NSF) has determined that the
Product complies with the relevant Standard.
Why choose a product
with WQA certification? ->> direct statement from the
WQA web site.
"Products that go through
the certification program must withstand rigorous testing to evaluate the
performance and integrity of the product."
- Materials Safety
ensures that the materials used in the product will not contribute
contaminants to the drinking water.
- Chemical
Performance measures contaminant reduction capabilities over the life
and/or capacity of the unit.
- Structural
Integrity ensures that the product will withstand 10 years of normal
household use.
- Reviews are
conducted to ensure that the product literature supplied to consumers
meet WQA's code of ethics, is congruent with the test results, and
contains the required information outlined in the standard.
