Applications:
- Residential Use : Spotting on dishes, films that coat the shower walls, laundry that is stiff and rough, and clogged plumbing are all the result of hard water conditions. In addition to affecting the actual washing process, insoluble soap deposits are left on surfaces and a soap film will continue to build up in your bath and shower. Water softeners provide a solution by removing the calcium and magnesium and providing a cleaner final product.
- Commercial Use: Hard water also produces a scale, which clogs pipes and obstructs heat conduction. Water softeners are commonly used for industrial, municipal, and commercial applications such as: contact process water, make up water for boiler & reactors, laundry facilities, protection of heat transfer elements and spray nozzles, and pre-treatment for reverse osmosis.
