How do Water Softeners work:
Water softeners work on the ion exchange principle. They work by passing the incoming water supply through the resin bed, that removes all excess minerals and impurities.
As a result, the calcium and magnesium cling to the resin beads and are replaced by sodium ions. The resin bed can only capture a certain amount of minerals, and when this limit is reached, the system is regenerated by flushing it with a brine solution.
This helps in the removal of calcium deposits and replenishes the resin with sodium ions. Therefore, with water softeners you can easily turn your hard water into softened water.
