When the water softening system is providing soft water, it is called “Service.” During service, hard water flows from the house main water pipe into the water softening system. Inside the water softening system resin tank is a bed made up of thousands of tiny, plastic resin beads. As hard water passes through the bed, each bead attracts and holds the hardness minerals. This is called ion-exchanging. It is much like a magnet attracting and holding metals. Water without the hardness minerals (soft water) flows from the water softening system and to the house pipes.

After a period of time, the resin beads become coated with hardness minerals and they have to be cleaned. This cleaning is called regeneration, or recharge. Regeneration is started at 2:00 AM (factory setting) by the water softening system timer, and consists of five stages or cycles. These are FILL, BRINING, BRINE RINSE, BACKWASH and FAST RINSE.

Automatic Hard Water Bypass During Regeneration

For emergency needs, hard water is available to the home during the regeneration cycles. However, you

should avoid using HOT water because the water heater will fill with the hard water.

Salt dissolved in water is called brine. Brine is needed to clean the hardness minerals from the resin beads. To make the brine, water flows into the salt storage area during the fill stage as shown.
