What Is Water Softener Regeneration?

Water softener
regeneration is a necessary process that your water softener needs to go
through in order to continue working at maximum efficiency.
The question is, how
does water softener regeneration work? And, how often should this process be
taking place? We provide the answers below.
How Does Water
Softener Regeneration Work
Water softeners work
to soften water by passing hard water over a bed of resin. This resin takes
hold of the calcium and magnesium ions that are responsible for hardening the
water.
However, the resin
will inevitably become saturated and ineffective over time.
In order to restore
it to its original functionality, it will need to be regenerated with the help
of a special salt.
This salt assists in
sapping the absorbed minerals from the resin, leaving it with plenty of
capacity to continue absorbing more.
How Often Should a
Water Softener Regenerate?
The frequency of
water softener regeneration will depend on a number of factors, including the
following:
· The type
of control valve the water softener has,
· The hardness of the water in your area,
· The capacity of your resin tank, and
· How old your water softening system is.
The water softener will need to regenerate more frequently if your
area’s water also contains a higher level of iron and if your household uses a
large amount of water.
Water Softener
Regeneration and Twin-Tank Water Softeners
Twin-tank water
softeners promise more convenient water regeneration. When one tank needs to
regenerate, the other tank will continue to operate as normal.
In other words, you
will always have soft water available for use when you have a twin-tank water
softener in your home.
