The "Scale Armor+" System uses a unique four module swirl Chamber that contains a highly effective Template Assisted Crystallization(TAC) scale reduction media and a large OxyMag module for further scale control. The activated carbon is used to remove impurities including organic contaminants, chlorine, chloramine, pesticides color and much more. Activated Carbons are very porous with a large surface area. One pound of GAC has a surface area equivalent to six football fields. Impurities are held with the carbon's internal pore structure by electrostatic attraction or chemisorption. Catalytic Ga is also available and offers faster rates for the removal of Chloramines. The "Scale Armor" system includes layers of Quartz, Almandine Garnet, Clinoptilolite, and Granular Activated Coconut Shell Carbon for enhanced water clarification.

Michelle and Dominic had purchased their home in Wake Forest several years earlier with the idea in mind that it would serve as a family-centric place where they could gather with extended family. Situated in a quiet residential neighborhood with large lots, it was the perfect place for them to raise and home school their 4 children.
As their family grew, the children’s daily activities were split between the 1st and 2nd floors, making it difficult to coordinate activities amongst them all. And their extended family get-togethers had become cramped and increasingly difficult to accommodate everyone comfortably. They were in need of added living space that could serve their family’s needs as well as provide extra entertaining areas to host family gatherings.
With our experience in helping homeowners secure financing for their Home Improvement projects, we worked with Dominic and Michelle to prepare all of the necessary documentation required to apply for an FHA 203K Home Renovation loan. As a result, they were able to finance the full cost of the construction of their new Family Room Addition.
Our solution was to add a 1st floor living space that harmonized with the existing floor plan and décor, was central to the existing Kitchen, and flexible enough to facilitate large groups and accommodate the whole family’s daily activities and access to the outdoors.
As a result of their newly added flexible living area, they are now able to comfortably gather with their extended family as well accommodate the whole family’s needs, giving them the opportunity spend more quality time with their family and friends.
