The function of the water softener is to convert hard water into soft water. Compared with hard water, soft water has many advantages. Soft water baths make the skin more moisturized; soft water can prevent scale from household appliances and prolong the service life of household appliances; soft water laundry makes clothes cleaner and brighter, while saving detergent;

What is a water softener? What are the beneficial uses of water softeners? Is it necessary to install a water softener at home? Which brand of water softener is better? This topic will provide you with knowledge, products and information about water softeners, and answers to common questions about water softeners.

Knowledge of water softener
What is a water softener?
The water softener uses ion exchange technology to exchange the sodium ions on the resin with the calcium and magnesium ions in the water to absorb calcium and magnesium ions in the water to achieve the purpose of removing scale (calcium carbonate or magnesium carbonate).
The function, use and value of the water softener.

1. Avoid scaling and prolong the service life of household appliances

Hard water is easy to produce scale, and the harm of scale to household appliances:

1. Scale blocks the pipes and causes poor water flow; scale blocks the shower nozzles, and frequently replaces the shower nozzles, causing additional economic expenditure.

2. The thermal conductivity of scale is low, and it adheres to the inside of the solar collector tube, so that the heat absorbed by the collector tube cannot be transferred to the water in time, causing the temperature to be too high and it is easy to explode the tube.

3. Scale corrodes the inner tank, causing water leakage, destroying the heat preservation effect, affecting the normal use of the water temperature meter and electric heating, and causing damage to the water heater, floor heating and other electrical appliances.

2. Wash your face with soft water, take a bath with soft water, restore skin moisture and health

If you wash your face with hard water for a long time, the calcium and magnesium ions in the hard water will react with the cleansing products, producing soap scale, destroying the skin's stratum corneum and sebum membrane, and causing damage to the skin's barrier function.

Soft water baths, shampoos, and face washes are smooth and tender. They have a protective effect on the skin of infants and young children. It can also make investment in beauty, hairdressing, and skin care more effective.

3. Soft water laundry is cleaner and brighter

The soft water laundry is clean, fluffy, gorgeous, and has no residual washing and taste, and the life of the clothes can be extended by more than 15%.

Frequently Asked Questions about Water Softener
Q: What is the difference between soft water and hard water?
Answer: Soft water refers to water that does not contain or contains less soluble calcium and magnesium compounds. Soft water is not easy to produce soap scum with soap, while hard water is the opposite. Natural soft water generally refers to river water, river water, lake (freshwater lake) water.
Hard water refers to water containing more soluble calcium and magnesium compounds. Hard water does not cause direct health hazards, but it will bring a lot of trouble to life, such as scale formation on water appliances, and reduced washing efficiency of soaps and detergents.
The hardness of water refers to the content of salts dissolved in the water, that is, the content of calcium and magnesium salts. The higher the content, the higher the hardness, and vice versa. GPG is a unit of water hardness. 1GPG means that the content of hardness ions (calcium and magnesium ions) in 1 gallon of water is 1 grain. According to the American WQA (Water Quality Association) standard, the hardness of water is divided into 6 levels: 0~0.5GPG is soft water, 0.5~3.5GPG is slightly hard, 3.5~7.0GPG is medium hard, 7~10.5GPG is hard water, 10.5~ 14.0GPG is very hard, and above 14.0GPG is very hard.

Q: Why do you need to add salt to soft water?
Answer: The regeneration process of the water softener resin requires the participation of salt. The calcium and magnesium ions on the resin are replaced, and the resin can be restored and used again. The AICKSN central water softener adopts countercurrent regeneration technology to save water and salt, and the water consumption is a common product. The salt consumption is 1/3 of ordinary products.

Question: What is the service life of the water softener?
Answer: The service life of the water softener is relatively long.
