Benefits of Installing a Water Softener in Cape Coral
A whole home water softener or point-of-entry water softener operates between the main water line and the home’s internal plumbing. This lets it remove the calcium from your water before it enters your house. Most residential water softener systems are salt-based and function by exchanging calcium and magnesium with sodium chloride. The system filters the water through a tank of salt-saturated resin beads. Some systems have a single tank and must go offline to recharge the beads. Others have dual tanks and can use one tank while the other recharges.
A water softener improves the efficiency and lifespan of water heaters, boilers, dishwashers, and washing machines. It does this by preventing the scale buildup that leads to inefficient operation and premature component failure. Water softening prevents the scale from Southwest Florida’s water building up in your pipes.
That helps to prevent clogs, low water pressure, and various forms of corrosion. Soft water is generally preferable for cooking and drinking. It’s also better for showering because it promotes better skin and hair health.
