FAQS About Water Softener Systems
What is a Water Softener?
A water softener is a specialized filtration system that removes minerals like calcium and magnesium from your water supply. These minerals cause “hard water,” leading to various issues around the house. Hard water leaves scale on fixtures, reduces soap effectiveness, and slowly damages plumbing and appliances.
In Calgary, where hard water is common, a water softener system is often necessary to protect your home’s plumbing system and appliances. Installing a water softener improves everyday water quality for bathing, cleaning, and laundry.
How Do Water Softener Systems Work?
Water softeners function through a process called ion exchange, which eliminates hardness minerals from your water. Inside the softener tank, resin beads with a negative charge attract positively charged minerals like calcium and magnesium. As hard water flows through the beads, the minerals stick to them while sodium ions are released into the water, resulting in softened water throughout your home.
Over time, the resin beads accumulate hardness minerals and need regeneration to maintain performance. This regeneration cycle begins with a backwash phase that reverses the water flow to flush out accumulated sediment. A brine solution from the salt tank flows through the resin beads, removing the hardness minerals and restoring the sodium coating on the beads. Most modern systems regenerate automatically based on your household’s water use or a preset schedule.
What Size Water Softener System Do I Need?
Water softeners are rated by grain capacity, which indicates how much hardness they can remove before regeneration is required. For most Calgary homes, water softeners with capacities ranging from 32,000 to 64,000 grains offer the best balance of efficiency and performance. During your consultation, Knight Plumbing technicians will assess your needs and recommend a water softener system that is perfectly sized for your home, neither too small nor unnecessarily large or costly.
What are the Benefits of a Water Softener System from Knight Plumbing?
A water softener system from Knight Plumbing protects your plumbing and appliances from damage caused by hard water mineral buildup. By preventing scale accumulation, your water heater, dishwasher, washing machine, and other water-using appliances will function more efficiently and last longer, saving you money on repairs and replacements.
Soft water also improves your cleaning experience. You’ll use up to 50% less soap and detergent, and you’ll see better results – dishes will be spot-free, laundry will feel softer and look brighter, and shower doors will stay clearer without constant scrubbing.
Personal comfort is also enhanced with soft water. It’s gentler on your skin and hair, often alleviating dry, itchy skin and improving conditions like eczema. Your hair will become more manageable, and you may notice a reduction in the need for moisturizers and conditioners as your body adjusts to water free from harsh minerals.
Knight Plumbing’s professional installation ensures your water softener system operates efficiently from day one. Our technicians will calibrate your system to match your water hardness and usage patterns, optimizing salt consumption and regeneration cycles.
