My qualifications? I have a Masters Degree in Electrical Engineering. But that doesn't matter. Anyone with a decent understanding of High School Chemistry can see right thu the false claims. But that's what they count on, that most people either didn't take HS chemistry, or didn't learn very much.
A friend of mine did call them when they first started advertising on local television. The rep she spoke to just spouted the same pseudo-science they have on their website and nearly identical to what the so-called rep posted above, almost word for word (as if reading it from a sales script). When she asked the rep several direct questions, the rep said, "You don't understand our breakthrough technology." The rep then hung up on my friend, who BTW is also a holder of an advanced engineering degree.

Glad I did my research before committing to buy this product. Thank you for your input.

Spend the money on a Kinetco instead!! We have well water, and I use 2 bags of salt every 3-4 months!! You can spend less on a "cheaper" softener, and more on salt the rest of your life.

I find it amazing that the first thing that most of these "engineers" chiming in say is "no salt soft water conditioner".

Not one time has either Easy Water or Scalewatcher said that they soften the water. It's hard water. Plain and simple. They will admit that. Also, I've done my research and found plenty of companies who use these same systems on a commercial basis. Are we supposed to believe that companies like McDonalds, Arby's, Walmart, and a score of others also suffer from the "voodoo water placebo effect"? If it didn't work as intended, corporations wouldn't be spending thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, on the product.

Can someone, ANYONE, actually provide information about this so-called pending litigation against Easywater from Lilly? And a second hand story from someone you know isn't going to cut it.

Wait...I found one. http://supplierportal.lilly.com/index.cfm...

Freije won an award from Lilly, and now they are getting sued? Interesting.

I didn't see their name on the award list, though I just skimmed it..what year?

This is indeed a scam: a fraud. I have asked the Federal Trade Commission to prosecute.

The device cannot work as the seller claims: it is a physical impossibility. If the FTC does prosecute, I will keep people notified here.

However, I do know the Freije unit affects the amount of soap.

No it does not. The device does not do anything to the water. It is a scam.

I have been researching this for quite some time now and what I have found is that there are in fact many positive reviews on this type of “water conditioning”. Amazon and Home Depot sell the Clearwave brand and it seems that even people who were not expecting to see any results in fact did. I think that the main problem is understanding that these products will not add or remove anything from the water, however they do change the molecular structure by way of varying radio frequencies generally known to be a square wave @ 1 kHz to 24 kHz. Also the fact that they don’t tend to help much if you’re water is 25gpg hardness or higher, so people who install these and don’t see a difference probably weren’t aware of this limitation. The Penn State report only talks about magnetic technology and it provides references as old as 1977 to this effect. It doesn’t look like they even ran any lab tests, just wrote a conclusion based on select references. Further people who don’t understand advanced technology are at a loss in being able to believe that this could condition water. If water molecules cannot be altered or affected by radio frequency waves, how then does an induction cook top boil water without heat? Yes, it is hard to believe, but yes it works. Here is a link to the product which has REAL test reports of the effect of this technology and what to expect and not expect from its use.

Salt and salt softener salesmen love to bash EasyWater so they can try to keep you from buying a great product. You don't see EasyWater out there bashing salt softeners and I am sure they could come up with a few bad things to say about them.

Here are a few for ya.

Go ahead. Drink and bathe in salt softened water. Doctors tell their patients not to drink salt softened water if they have high blood pressure.

Okay, you say the salt is not in your drinking water? Why do salt softener companies bypass your drinking water and your outside spickets? It's because they know the water is hazardous to your health and it will also kill plant life.

Why is the state of California trying to pass bans on salt softeners? Where does the salt go? During the recycle process, the excess salt is dumped out and goes into our lakes, rivers, and streams and never gets removed. Salt softeners are pollution to our water supplies. The regeneration process can dump hundreds of gallons of water out per month in 1 household. Multiply that by a million houses. That is a lot of water wasted. Eventually the bans will reach to more states.

Enough said.

This guy sells salt softeners. There is no doubt about it.

There are no law suits against Freije. That is bull shit. Go get a life and stop trying to sell salt softeners to EasyWater prospects. This is the only hope salt softening companies have. They try to scare EasyWater customers into thinking they are getting ripped off. Don't be fooled by these idiots selling salt softeners.

The only thing that is BS is the Freije system....just ask a couple of the Indy hospitals that trialed this system when it first came out.....dumped it within months.

Thanks for the link to the Purdue report. It really was a telling study and saved me from a bad choice.

let me know if ur ready to purchase a easywater system, seeing that over 20,000 people already have & if it didnt work, Y would over 225 plumbing companys carry, sell & install these systems - its 2009 buddy, get w/ it or get lost!!!

The easy water ad shows the electrical coil wrapped around a metal pipe. The metal pipe would act as a shorted secondary winding an prevents any electro magnetic field from penetrating the pipe.

THIS DEVICE IS A FRAUD!
