Plants Pro | Automatic Water Softener 600-1500LPH 1054

Water softeners have been used for many years and remain the most effective method for eliminating limescale from water. They operate through a process called ion exchange, where the hardness ions (calcium and magnesium) in the water are replaced by sodium or potassium ions (salt). In this process, water flows through resin beads saturated with sodium ions. As the water passes over these beads, the sodium ions swap places with the calcium and magnesium ions, which then attach to the resin. This exchange results in water with higher sodium content, which may taste noticeably different from before.
