The first question is – how, exactly do you soften water? Unlike water filters – water softeners use “salts” which are actually balls of resin with sodium ions on the outside. These sodium ions create molecular bonds with dissolved materials in your water, such as calcium, magnesium, and iron. As hard water passes through the water softener, the materials in the water bond with the sodium resin while the water passes through, removing all of those foreign materials from your water.
