DESCRIPTION:

From Pentair, Hard Water is a type of mineralized water. Not everyone takes kindly to hard water. Take your healthcare further with LUX Water Softener.

LUX Water Softener contains food grade resin that attracts magnesium and calcium ions in the water. The food grade resin holds them until regenerated with a brine solution. This process reduces water hardness and provide the following benefits:

 – Less soap and shampoo consumption due to reduced minerals in the water.
 – Increased longevity of water-using household items, slower to negligible mineral build-up.
 – Spotless cutlery and plates.
 – With lower minerals it means the water has an easier time in its disinfection.
 – Automatic regeneration and control.

A Water Softener: Process

The process that a softening system makes use of is called ion exchange. In the simplest terms, when hard water enters the filter, it attracts the calcium and magnesium ions and flushes it with sodium ions as a replacement. So all these ions are exchanged within the mineral and brine tanks to make water soft and to maintain an ionic balance in it at the same time. The entire process of ion exchange takes place because of the basic chemistry of the positive and negative charges that these minerals have.

Why Have Your Own Water Softener?

If you have a supply of hard water in your home, investing in a water softener is a sensible choice. This system can easily be fixed with your plumbing and can be a way of future cost savings. Where hard water leaves surfaces dirty, lines the inside of bathtubs and pipes with calcium residues and makes soap or detergents stick to skin and clothes, a softening system does away with these problems with a simple filtration process.
