Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Hard water doesn’t pose a risk to your physical health when you drink it. In fact, drinking hard water can help ensure you get enough of essential minerals like calcium in your daily diet. However, extremely hard water can contribute to dry skin and make your scalp itchy if you wash your hair in it too often.

While not everyone can detect taste differences in high-calcium water, water that has a slightly metallic taste probably has too much calcium.

Installing a water softener could help reduce calcium buildup in your pool if your pool has high calcium hardness as a result of hard drinking water in your home. Pool softeners work by exchanging calcium and magnesium for sodium, so if you use softened water to top off your pool, it may help keep calcium hardness from rising over time. However, it won’t lower the calcium hardness of the water already in your pool and isn’t a practical way to control pool calcium levels. The average water softener installation cost is between $200 and $6,000.

A tankless water heater should be at least 10 feet away from a water softener, although the pros you hire for water softener installation can help you determine the correct distance. These two units need to have some distance between them to prevent hot water from the tankless water heater from flowing backward into the water softener when it runs a regeneration cycle.

Routine maintenance involves recharging the resin bed with salt or potassium, cleaning components, and periodic inspection.
