Vulcan 5000 Unit
Homeowner: Sommer Family
Water Hardness: 23 GPG (very hard)
Water pH: 7.82
Test Duration: 6+ weeks
Vulcan Model: Vulcan 5000
The Sommer family installed Vulcan 5000 in their home with very hard water (22°). They emptied, replaced, and cleaned all filters and water boilers, including those in showers, dishwasher, and kettle before beginning the test.
"Dear Vulcan Team,"
"We thought it was great to be able to test the Vulcan 5000 and would like to say thank you once again."
Our conclusion:
"The Vulcan 5000 was relatively easy to install, so having a third hand to secure the pulse bands properly is helpful, but otherwise it's easy. Since we installed a water system, we emptied, replaced, and cleaned all filters and water boilers, including those in the showers, dishwasher, kettle, etc. And what can I say, after a maximum of two days, you could already tell that the water was better."
"However, we also have very hard water with a pH of 7.82 and a water hardness of 22°. The laundry is now softer and, after more than 6 weeks, there is still no sign of any deposits on the shower glass walls."
"We remain with kind regards"
