Water Softening

Ion-exchange systems that remove the calcium and magnesium responsible for limescale.

How water softening works

Water softening is based on the ability of certain synthetic resins to retain calcium and magnesium ions and exchange them for sodium ions. The exchange power of these resins is exhausted after a certain amount of water has passed through them. It is therefore necessary to restore their functionality by absorbing a saturated solution of sodium chloride.

Water softening is applied where high concentrations of calcium and magnesium salts cause problems, usually resulting in limescale deposits. The formation of these deposits causes problems, especially in those installations, whether domestic or industrial, where the water undergoes a change in temperature.

The amount of calcium and magnesium salts contained in water determines its “hardness”, which is commonly expressed in French degrees °F.
