A Kinetico water softener contains sodium ion resin beads. Hard water passes through the beads, and the beads retain the minerals such as calcium and magnesium, releasing soft water. The resin bed becomes loaded with minerals and must cleanse or regenerate the beads to continue providing soft water. Yamaha psr s550 style files download. Bypassing your water softener is an easy job that you can do yourself. It's handy any time you want to switch. Quick demonstration and guide on how to install a softener NOTE: This is NOT a product to install by yourself.

Iron Staining and my Water Softener seems to be working okay, Why is that? Last Updated: 07/09/2014 | ||
There are several things that could cause you to still be getting staining. 1) It is critical that your system never run empty of salt. 2) It is important that the time of day be kept correct and that no one uses water between 2 a.m. - 3 a.m. when the system is regenerating. While the system is in regeneration, any water used would be unconditioned ( coming straight from the well ). 3) In high iron situations it is usually necessary to include a cleaner with the salt. Iron Out or Rust Out ( about 1/4 cup with each 80 lbs of Salt ) is commonly used. So is Tan-X ( Citric Acid, also 1/4 lbs per 80 lbs. ). A cup or two of Chlorine Bleach can be used, if your softener DOES NOT have 'white resins' installed for Tannic Acid Color removal ( this is a special layer of resins sometimes added to the regular resin inside your resin tank ). 4) It could be your resin tank is too small to handle all the iron. a. What size is the resin tank? b. What is the level of Iron and Hardness of the water? 5) It could be you are not regenerating often enough, or using enough salt per regeneration. See this article, Frequency of Regeneration - How Often Should Softener Recharge? a. How often does your softener regenerate? b. How many people are using the water? c. How much salt are you using per month? 6) On rare occasions the iron could be coming from just the hot water tank. I've seen a few old ones ( over 20 years old ) rusting out on the inside, thus putting iron back into the water. This is also true in older mobile homes ( again over 20 years old ) that used galvanized plumbing under the trailer. Above are the common reasons a working water softener might still be allowing you to get staining. For additional help and recommendations, please EMAIL US the answers to the above questions.
