AB2270, a water recycling bill before the California State Senate, has been deemed a water softener ban bill by the Water Quality Association. This new law is designed to promote recycled water use by setting and tracking progress of recycled water targets and removing barriers for recycled water use. This bill contains a provision allowing for an increase by local authorities to regulate salt type water softeners. Recycled water is wastewater from homes and businesses that goes through advanced treatment processes to remove bacteria and pollutants. Recycled water is used mostly for irrigation purposes, though additional uses exist under strict guidelines.
Should this bill pass, as it is expected to, California residents may find the need for an alternative to their salt type water softener. EasyWater is an alternative. EasyWater is an environmentally friendly alternative to a salt softener because it will condition the water and prevent limescale buildup without the use of sodium, potassium or other chemicals.
