Water softeners use ion-exchange technology to remove unwanted elements from your water.

Some of the more common elements mitigated by water softening include calcium and magnesium - frequently referred to as "hardness" and stain-causing materials like iron and manganese.

• Longer life of plumbing fixtures and appliances

• Clothing stays brighter and lasts longer

• Less soap required when washing​
