include:

1. Easily installed.
2. Nearly maintenance free.
3. No additional expense after initial purchase.
4. Energy efficiency is increased due to less time to heat or cool.
5. Eliminates the need for chemical treatment and down-time normally required for lime/scale control.
6. Eliminates the use of chemicals for scale and corrosion control.
7. Increased work safety records by eliminating the need to handle and store dangerous chemicals.
8. Frees up valuable storage space that was previously used to store chemicals.
9. Since no chemicals are used in the water customers can recycle their water for landscaping.
10. Keeps equipment at maximum efficiency which reduces electrical usage.
11. Greatly increases lifetime of equipment.
12. Reduces maintenance and reduces downtime.
13. Literally saves water per year!
14. Lowers surface tension of water so it feels like soft water and greatly increases saturation of minerals (great for irrigation!!!)
15. 100% Environmentally Friendly non-toxic/non-polluting& Meets All EPA requirements!
16. AND MANY MORE!!!
    

Principles of Operation

A molecule of water is expressed as H20. The hydrogen and oxygen atoms share electrons which form a chemical bond.
The molecule passes a positive charge on one end and a negative charge on the other end, pausing it to act like a bar magnet. This gives to the term "dipole moment' of a molecule. This dipole moment results when two charges +Q and -Q are separated by a distance d, and constitutes an electric dipole of magnitude Qd. This dipole moment or polar molecule is responsible for one of the most distinctive properties of water, its solubility.
Water has been called the universal solvent because it can dissolve almost any inorganic and many organic substances. The positive portion of the water molecule attracts positive particles of the other polar particles. As a substance dissolves in water, its particles break away from one another and cling instead to individual molecules.

The presence of a polar molecule in the vicinity of another molecule has the effect of polarizing the second molecule. This induced dipole can then interact with the dipole moment of the first molecule, and the two molecules are attracted together.

Nonpolar molecules may acquire a dipole moment when they are exposed to a magnetic field. Under the influence of a magnetic field, their electron distribution becomes distorted and the centers of positive and negative charge are separated. The magnitude of the induced moment is proportional to the strength of the field.

An VEM works on a basic electrical principal. In short what it does is polarize the mineral molecules in your water as dipoles. Think of the molecules as magnets each with a north and south pole. We have all tried to push magnets together and found that a north and south pole attract each other. If two molecules of calcium (for example) are polarized by an VEM then the south pole of one will attach itself to the north pole of the other. With a long chain of molecules "holding hands" the are unable to attach themselves to the walls of your pipe (creating scale). They remain in suspension and scale is eliminated.

Look at the drawing below. In pipeline head you can see random molecules entering the VEM. In VEM they are polarized and finally through VEM they emerge as dipoles and just like our magnet example they are "holding hands". Now there is absolutely no electric charge available for them to grab onto the walls of your piping. Even with the elevated TDS levels no scale or corrosion can form. Even existing deposits are slowly removed as those molecules join along in the "hand holding" process.

Availability:
VEM are available for pipe of any kind installations. Many sizes are in stock and ready for immediate shipment. Those that are not in stock will generally have approximately a two weeks shipment time.

Labor:
The VEM System is self monitoring and requires no maintenance.
Chemical treatment requires continuous monitoring, adjusting feed, servicing of feed equipment, handling, and extensive water testing required to maintain proper water chemistry.

Safety:
The VEM System requires no chemicals.
Safety is the most feared part of using chemical treatment in water systems. There have been many cases of severely burned hands, arms, and faces of persons handling chemicals.

Places to use:
The VEM System can be used in any water system. The VEM System works in any size water system no matter what the size. Each system is designed to fit the need.

Space:
The VEM System requires little room for installation since the entire cell is placed directly into the water line, requiring only electrical service.

Continuous Treatment:
The VEM system operates automatically, 24 hours a day with no assistance or monitoring.

Expenditure:
You can normally own an VEM System for less than it costs to operate a chemical system for one year.
