tell when it's gonna rupture?" he said, "no, you just have to hope," so, but if it does, it's 40 to 50 gallons of water all over the place, and if you're not home, it just keeps pumping and pumping and pumping-- a lot of damage. >> yeah. >> but it gets worse than that. here is a pipe we took out of a home that's just 20 years old. >> yeah. >> look how much it's corroded inside. >> lime and scale and... >> yeah. >> yeah, it actually looks like a clogged artery. >> you know, that's a good comparison, actually, 'cause our bodies pump our blood through our arteries and veins, right? >> right. >> well, the plumbing in the house pumps the water through the house. now, you can imagine if your house looked like this, what would be happening? >> well, my dishwasher could have a heart attack. >> exactly, and that's why we're here today. you see, i have found a new way to turn hard water into soft water... [snaps fingers] instantaneously, and it's with this new, very simple, inline water conditioning system from nuvo h2o. it uses a patent-pending all-natural material to turn hard water into soft water. >> this, right here, is the whole system. >> yes, this is it.
4:36 am
>> that's pretty amazing. now, folks, we picked this house today because it's being remodeled and up until now it's had this old salt system, so what we're doing today is replacing all of this with this, right, jan? >> exactly, that's what makes this so exciting, because up until today, these old salt systems' old technology that was our only option to soften the water. now, i put a similar system just like that salt system in my house in pennsylvania about 10 years ago cost me $2800 then. you could spend up to $5,000 for a system like that today. >> ouch! you know, a lot of folks have that. they're huge and expensive. >> but the worst part about it is that it uses salt. lots of salt. big, heavy, 40-pound bags of salt, month after month. >> oh, that is heavy! >> plus you have to keep doing it, month after month, year after year. however, you're also putting that salt-- which is sodium-- into your water, putting it into your body, and we don't need more salt in our bodies. >> no. >> now, when you take a bath or a shower in softened water...
4:37 am
>> mm-hmm. >> how does it feel? >> it's slimy. i don't feel clean, actually. >> that's the salt. as a matter of fact, there are some places in the united states-- california's one of them-- where those systems are banned because of the damage that they do to septic tanks, sewers the municipal water treatment plants, not to mention the environment. >> it's bad for the environment. >> it is. and unlike those old salt systems, there are no moving parts in the nuvo h2o it requires no electricity and it's simple to install. it goes right here on the water line, right in front of your water heater. if you're handy, you can install it in minutes. as water runs through your system, it enters the nuvo chamber where it flows across the cartridge. condensed citracharge slowly releases. looking at a microscopic level f.d.a.-approved citracharge citric acid attaches to particles of lime and scale-- it grabs them and instantly binds to them. lime and scale can only bond once, so once they are attached to citracharge, they are neutralized and can't stick to
4:38 am
pipes, faucets, enamel, glass, dishes, laundry or you. >> so, jan, that means lime and scale won't build up on anything. >> that's right. it's pretty simple, huh? >> it is. and it's citric acid, like lemons, limes and oranges? >> yeah, it's the exact same compound found in mother nature, and it's safe. wanna taste it? >> taste it? [laughs] o.k. mm, it's sour like lemons, but not bad. >> that's citric acid. but you'll never taste it in your water. you see, the citracharge cartridge releases the citric acid in very low concentrations, so it binds to the minerals and carries them away, just enough to make your hard water soft. >> hmm. mm, can't taste it at all. it's good water. >> we've been manufacturing water treatment products for over 30 years. we've taken that same technology and now use it in the home with nuvo h2o water treatment systems. once you install it, your usage goes down then the bills go down, and then
4:39 am
it pays for itself over time. not only that, it protects your appliances so that the lines don't get clogged up with scale, and you don't have the calcium deposits on your fixtures and in your shower heads. >> i couldn't believe that the dishwasher looked brand-new. and the glasses were now looking very sparkly clean. >> i saw the white streaks on the tile-- that brown tile in our walk-in shower-- i saw those white streaks disappearing. i purposefully did not clean the shower after i put this in. i wanted to see how active the water coming out from the system would be in actually reversing the process that had begun building up... and it was within two weeks i started seeing that go away. >> it's easy to install. it's easy to maintain. and it works. flat out, it just works. >> jan, you're a handyman. do i need a plumber to install it? >> well, if you do, nuvo can recommend an authorized installer pretty much anywhere in the united states that can install this in under an hour. or do it yourself, it's easy.

4:45 am
they're saving money, and what makes a person happier? [♪...] >> welcome back to 21st century green. today is all about a problem that 80% of american homes have: hard water. jan, i'm listening to these testimonials, and i knew hard water was a problem, but i didn't know how pervasive it is. >> yeah, people hate it, and up until now, the alternatives were actually expensive, they were messy, they were salty, and i hate to say this, stupid. >> well, look, if you've never lived with hard water, you won't get it, but if you have, you know what a pain hard water is. >> and if you live on well water right now like i did, you really know what i'm talking about. ever go to the fridge, want to get some water, some ice... >> nothing. >> nothing comes out. look at all of the scale and deposits that are here. that's inside, and that's what makes these go bad. then you have to call the repairman. >> and that's expensive. >> it is. do you like drippy faucets? >> no, i don't. >> come here, i wanna show you something. >> o.k.
4:46 am
>> let me show you how having a nuvo h2o system installed in your home can help solve a common problem like dripping faucets. >> so you're telling me that dripping faucets are caused by hard water. >> absolutely. here's why: when your faucets are dripping, that means that the valve and the handle can't close, o.k.? that's why it's dripping. >> o.k. >> and you can see the lime and scale build-up from the hard water in this home. >> right. >> that's what's causing the problem. now this is expensive fixtures. and look at this, it's even starting to ruin the sink. nine times out of 10 that's a hard water problem. with the nuvo h2o system you solve that problem. >> well, i love the sound of that. you know, i love fluffy towels coming out of the dryer rather than these hard, crunchy things coming out with the hard water. and i really am going to be anxious to get rid of the soap scum in the shower. problem solved, what's next? >> jan: whoa, hey, what's up brother? >> there's a lot of work going on around here today. >> let me show you something anne-marie. >> o.k. >> laundry detergent. now, we all know it's expensive, right? >> right. >> and if you have hard water
4:47 am
in your home, if you install a nuvo h2o system, you'll immediately notice that you use less detergent-- less in the clothes washer less in the dishwasher it'll even take less shampoo to shampoo your hair. >> why is that? >> that's because hard water has these particles in it that like to attach to things, and laundry detergent likes to attach to those particles, so they stick together. >> hmm. >> and it takes twice as much of the detergent to get the job done. >> and that means it takes twice as much water to rinse out the soap. >> exactly, you see, hard water is expensive... >> yeah. >> it's damaging, and it forces you to clean, clean, clean. >> and i hate cleaning. so jan, where does lime and scale come from? >> well, it occurs naturally in most water tables. you see, when it rains, the rain comes down into the earth, and then it starts to filter into the ground, and the earth begins to filter it naturally. underneath the ground, there's different geological material-- including limestone, manganese calcium, magnesium carbonate iron-- they dilute into the water and end up in your home. there's no way to filter it out.
4:48 am
you see, this is a 2200-square-foot home for a family of three. the nuvo system we installed in here is about 10% of the cost of that old salt system that we took out of here. >> that's a big savings. >> you can actually cut your consumption of water up to 75%. now here's the dirty little secret. there's a process called reverse osmosis. most systems take up to one, two, three, up to four gallons of water to make one gallon of drinking water. >> a four-to-one ratio? >> uh-huh. >> that's a lot of wasted water. >> it's wasted water, it's... it's bad for your water bill it's bad for your community. remember, there's only so much fresh water in the world. with nuvo, for every gallon of water you put in, you get one softened gallon of water out. >> cutting consumption by 75%. and there's not a drop of water wasted. nuvo is so compact. >> a smaller footprint means that you can put a nuvo water softening unit where you never could before: in a condo, an apartment, even a mobile home... anywhere you want better water that lowers your consumption.
4:49 am
this is a great solution. but how much maintenance does nuvo require? >> not much. as a matter of fact, it's easy. depending on volume, every six months or so, you go to the system, just twist the valve to off... and then just take the collar off... take out the old cartridge put in a new one... and screw it back together. >> you know, jan, the more you think about it, the more aggravating living with hard water becomes. >> that's for sure. >> it's a nightmare. >> but with nuvo, we're talking less chemicals, less detergents, less water consumption, less scrubbing mirrors, faucets and spots from glasses and utensils. >> you know, it's really rare that you find a solution that's green, that truly conserves water and energy and saves money. >> there are no wastes that come off of this system. every drop of water that goes into it comes out of it treated. there's no byproduct water so we're not throwing any water into a drain to produce good water. i like that because everything that comes through my water
4:50 am
meter at home comes through my faucet in the kitchen-- none of it's wasted. >> jan, is there any danger in drinking hard water? >> no, there isn't. in fact, we've been drinking hard water since the beginning of time. drinking water should have minerals in it. however, i want to tell you that other water-softening methods do come with warnings. there's a process called reverse osmosis. now that's a whole other show. but suffice it to say that reverse osmosis actually pushes the water through a filtered membrane, and it actually strips out the nutrients and the minerals. demineralized water has been deemed unacceptable for human, pet and plant consumption by the world health organization. now we mentioned earlier the most popular salt systems that waste huge amounts of water and add sodium to our diet. then there's other things like magnets and other weird stuff. there's also water purifiers. this is important. many people think that water purifiers help with hard water. >> but that's not true. >> it's not true, it's a myth. these particulates are dissolved
4:51 am
in the water. they're microscopic. they'll pass right through filtration. nuvo h2o is a natural, eco-friendly, food-safe way to soften hard water. it's literally nature's gift to water softening. to your health. >> thank you, jan. >> and to yours. it is your most precious possession, so take care of it. >> it's helped me, as a mom, spend less time cleaning and scrubbing my toilets and i spend less money on detergents and shampoos, and it's helped make my life simpler. >> i saw the infomercial on tv and it was very intriguing and i decided to call about it. so i called and got someone on the phone and i tortured him for 2-1/2 hours asking questions about it, but he was very patient and answered all my questions, and at the end of the whole thing i said "send me one!" [chuckles] >> i ordered it, installed it, uh... it probably took me about an hour and a half-- actually, it was me and my wife-- and we
4:52 am
installed it in about an hour and a half, um... and, you know, we've enjoyed it ever since. i've had no issues with it. it's run perfect for me. replace the filters in a timely manner and you've got this system that just does wonders to my house. >> jan, i keep thinking about how hard water damages my appliances. >> mm-hmm. >> you know, i had that water heater go out, and it was a fortune. it flooded and made a big mess. >> yeah, they can easily be 800, a thousand dollars or more and when they go, there's no warning sign on here. when they go, you pay now. >> that's right. >> because of the corrosive nature of hard water in these elements inside the hot water heater, they can burn out twice as fast, and they only work at 60 to 70% efficiency so that means you're spending more money on utilities to heat the water. you're burning money. and, as a matter of fact a clogged appliance-- just like these-- is a dying appliance and frankly, we should not have to worry about this stuff. nuvo is so compact, now you can use it anywhere you need
4:53 am
a water softener. you know, just like a car, appliances should last for years and years, and nuvo helps do that. >> i just can't wait to say good-bye to scrubbing white spots off the faucets and shower doors. folks, call now. find out how you can get your first payment as low as $29.95. here's how to order. >> i had a sink that didn't run. the plumber had come in and said, "well, you need a whole completely new sink..." [scoffs] naturally. so i said, "no, i'll just wait." and then somebody in nuvo h2o had talked to me about it and said, "maybe you want to wait and try the nuvo h2o and see if it makes any difference." [chuckles] well, it did and the sink works again and i didn't need a new one. >> announcer: introducing nuvo h2o, the simple inline solution that gives you month after month of softened water for pennies. it relies on food-grade citric acid to soften water safely and naturally. nuvo h2o installs in minutes is maintenance-free, and never
