Water Softening
How it works
The system centers around a pressuried tank filled with negatively-charged resin beads, which interact with untreated water to draw off undesirable minerals. A backwash cycle rinses away the captured minerals, followed by a regeneration cycle that recharges the beads with a brine solution. The entire process is managed by a precision engineered water valve, which works in tandem with a computeried controller to treat your water with maximum affordability and eco-friendliness.
Why it works better

- Intelligent cycle controller governs system cycling to provide many operating advantages.
- Choose the time clock mode or the environmentally friendly on-demand mode that regenerates only when needed, saving water and regenerant.
- Automatic power backup means no resetting in a power failure.
- Smart 28-day Variable Reserve feature “remembers” your usage pattern and adjusts to demand variations.

Add even greater improvements to your water
Many homeowners choose to further enhance their home’s water supply by adding a drinking water filter system for whole of house. A Coolabah Water filtration system can greatly reduce the contaminants that make water taste and smell bad. Some systems also reduce waterborne chemicals that may be harmful to your family’s health. We can install a drinking water solution to serve an entire home, or you may choose a point-of-use product that improves only water used for drinking and cooking. A new carbon filtration or reverse osmosis water system delivers safer, fresher, more flavorful water for a few cents a day. You can say goodbye to costly bottled water, along with the waste from endless plastic bottles.
Conditioned water makes home life easier and more economical to live. The benefits include reduction of soap scum and scaly skin to higher water pressure and extending the life of your hot water system, washing machine and dishwasher. A water softener will save significantly year after year on the cost of cleaning by reducing the amounts of soaps and detergents you need to clean with. This will also help the planet and reduce the damage that they cause in the environment.
