Project Description

A water softener is you best choice for protecting your fixtures and appliances from hard water. These systems use ion exchange technology to remove calcium from your water. The process of ion exchange uses special resins to replace the magnesium and calcium ions that can build up on fixtures, appliances and plumbing, with ions that are more soluble in water. The result is soft water. A water softener using ion exchange is currently the only cost effective way to remove hardness from water.

How do I know which size softener is right for my customers home?

Choosing the right water softener is an important step when determining the ideal treatment solution for your customers’ home. Choosing a water softener that is the right size can often be a confusing process. Water softener size depends on the size of a customers home, and how hard their water is.
