FAQS About Water Softener Systems

What is a Water Softener?

A water softener is a filtration system that removes minerals like calcium and magnesium from your water supply. These minerals cause “hard water,” leading to problems in your home. Hard water leaves scale on fixtures, reduces soap effectiveness, and slowly damages plumbing and appliances.

In areas like Ontario, where hard water is common, a water softener is not a luxury but a necessity. Installing one protects your home’s plumbing and appliances while improving water quality for bathing, cleaning, and laundry.

How Do Water Softener Systems Work?

Water softeners work through a process called ion exchange, removing hardness minerals from water. Inside the softener tank, resin beads with a negative charge attract positively charged minerals like calcium and magnesium. As hard water flows through these beads, the minerals attach to them, while sodium ions are released into the water, resulting in soft water.

Over time, the resin beads accumulate hardness minerals and need regeneration to remain effective. The regeneration cycle begins when the control valve activates a backwash phase, reversing the water flow to flush sediment. A brine solution from the salt tank flows through the beads, displacing the hardness minerals and restoring the sodium coating. Most modern systems regenerate automatically based on usage or a preset schedule.

What Size Water Softener System Do I Need?

Water softeners are rated by grain capacity, which indicates how many hardness grains they can remove before regeneration is needed. For most homes, systems ranging from 32,000 to 64,000 grain capacity provide optimal efficiency. Our Mersey Heating and Air Conditioning technicians will evaluate your needs during the consultation and recommend a water softener system perfectly sized for your home.

What are the Benefits of a Water Softener System from Mersey Heating and Air Conditioning?

A water softener from Mersey Heating and Air Conditioning protects your plumbing and appliances from scale buildup caused by hard water minerals. By preventing this accumulation, your water heater, dishwasher, washing machine, and other appliances will operate more efficiently and last longer.

This protection reduces repair and replacement costs, offering long-term savings. Soft water also improves cleaning, requiring less soap and detergent, and producing better results. Your dishes will come out spot-free, laundry will feel softer and brighter, and shower doors will stay clear without constant scrubbing.

Personal comfort is improved, as soft water is gentler on skin and hair. Many clients report relief from dry skin or eczema after installation. Hair becomes more manageable, and there’s often less need for moisturizers or conditioners. Mersey Heating and Air Conditioning’s professional installation ensures your system works efficiently from day one, optimized to your water’s hardness and household usage.
