What Is a Water Softener and How Does It Work?
A water softener removes minerals that create water hardness, one of the most common water quality problems a homeowner encounters. Hard water destroys appliances, leaves filmy soap scum across bathrooms and kitchens, and dries out hair and skin. With over 85% of the United States relying on hard water for their cooking, cleaning, and bathing, water softeners serve a vital purpose. A water softener saves you from replacing prematurely ruined water heaters, scaly faucet heads, and hours and hours of cleaning up soapy residue. Investing in a water softener saves you time, energy, and money, and protects your home and your property.
What is Hard Water?
Hard water contains a large amount of dissolved compounds of calcium and magnesium, among other minerals.Specifically, any types of water with more than 7 grains per gallon (gpg) of calcium carbonate is considered hard water.The hardness level can also be expressed in parts per million (ppm), or milligrams per liter (mg/L).The Problems with Hard WaterThankfully, calcium in water is not a health hazard. On the contrary, multiple studies have proved that it can be beneficial to your body in various ways. That is the reason why some quality household water filters may involve a step called remineralization, during which calcium is added back into your drinking water.Despite all the possible health benefits, calcium, along with other minerals, can still cause problems at a high concentration in the water,such as damage to water pipes,skin irritation, persistent stains etc;that’s why users use PFG-3085 Online Water Hardness Meter to measure calcium ion in Water Softener.BOQU PFG-3085 can measure water hardness online type and 7*24hours all days,the range is 0~5000mg/L, so it can meet different customers’ required
