Whole house water purification and filtration systems

Hard water contains high levels of minerals, mostly positively charged calcium (Ca2+) and magnesium (Mg2+) ions. It may also contain other dissolved compounds such as bicarbonates and sulfates. Water is defined as hard when it contains more than 7 grains per gallon (120 mg/L) of minerals.

A water softener is a device designed to reduce the amount of hardness-causing minerals in water such as calcium and magnesium.

Filtration is a process that removes solids and contaminants from water. The impurities are removed via techniques such as filtration through granular activated carbon.

The brine tank will already be filled when the system is installed. Add more salt after 4 or 5 days. We recommend using salt with a purity level of about 99.5%. How often you will need to add salt will depend on how often your system needs to regenerate. The more often your softener regenerates, the more salt it will consume. You can let the salt reduce to the point it is just below the water level. When water is visible above the salt line, you need to add more salt. As a rule of thumb, add salt to the brine tank about every 8 weeks.
