A filtration system refers to a method that is used to filter solid particles and remove contaminants from water. It doesn’t have to be a fancy system with a filter installed, but a filter is generally any device or solution that can remove bacteria, particles, chlorine and even particles.
Why do I need a water filtration system? Because a water filtration system removes bacteria and parasites from your home’s water, you won’t ingest contaminants that may cause intestinal and digestive issues. To keep your system working properly, it’s important to change the filters when they’re worn out.
WATER SOFTENER
Water softening is the removal of calcium, magnesium, and certain other metal cations in hard water. The resulting soft water requires less soap for the same cleaning effort, as soap is not wasted bonding with calcium ions.
The brine tank holds the sodium, or salt, ready for use. The salt mixes with the water at the bottom of the tank to form a brine solution. When the water softener regenerates, it draws the brine solution from the brine tank into the resin tank. The brine solution washes through the resin beads, replenishing them with sodium.
