Water Softeners and Filtering Systems
We offer a full range of specialized water systems that fight stains and odors and improve the overall quality of your water.
Filtering water involves separating mineral particles, like manganese, iron, and other organic matter from the water. By passing water through a "filter bed," or "media bed," these small particles are trapped - and refreshing, filtered water is available in your home.
Softening water involves something called "ion exchange" to remove dissolved minerals - like calcium, magnesium, iron and manganese which cannot be trapped in a filter bed. Softeners use fresh resin beads that are recharged with sodium (salt). As water enters the tank, dissolved calcium and magnesium are exchanged for the sodium ions. The resulting product is fresh, softened water.
What is the difference between softening water and filtering water?
