What softening addresses
Ion-exchange softeners reduce the calcium and magnesium that cause water hardness, exchanging them for sodium or potassium. They need regeneration, which uses salt and water.
Consider operating needs
Discuss hardness, water demand and regeneration requirements when selecting a unit. Follow maintenance instructions and consider both water and salt consumption.
Make the discussion practical
Send Deep Blue a water analysis, information about your current installation and photographs of the proposed location. We can discuss available equipment and access for servicing.
