Softening

Water that contains calcium and magnesium is called "Hard" because it reacts adversely with soap and interferes with the cleaning process. The hardness minerals form a scale I inside your kettle, appliances, water heater, pipes, and plumbing fixtures. They react with soap to create a scum or curd which forms a thick film on your shower, appears as a bath ring, and makes your laundry dull and gray. Hard water is more than a nuisance, it also costs you a lot of money.

You can eliminate these problems with a Water Softener. Water passes through a bed of ion exchange resin and the hardness minerals attach to the resin beads. When the beads become saturated with hardness minerals, they are automatically regenerated. A brine solution is drawn into the resin bed, releasing the accumulated minerals, which are washed away with fresh water. The resin bed is left regenerated and ready to soften the water again.

All of our softeners are "on demand" regeneration systems. Treated water is metered and when the system's maximum amount of hardness removal is achieved, the system regenerates at a selected time of day. Softeners come with bypass and brine safety float. Rental Units are available.
