MARKET INTRODUCTION
Water softeners are used to break calcium and magnesium salts that make up the hard water and replace them with other softer minerals such as sodium and potassium. Hard water is undesirable in many household and industrial applications as it requires more soap and leaves a dirty scum which is difficult to wash out.
