The water softener must regenerate once the resin bed becomes saturated with calcium & magnesium ions – recharging the bed once again with sodium ions.

Downflow washes all the hardness & other debris through the clean portion of the bed – requiring it to be regenerated.

Reverse Flow Regeneration preserves an unused portion of softening bed from unnecessary exchange saving salt. ‘Supercharged’ bottom portion prevents slippage for softer, consistent quality.
Precision Brining calculates the exact amount of brine required to regenerate, saving up to 30% more salt.
