INTRODUCTION
This booklet is designed to cover the Waterco Ezysoft semi automatic domestic water softeners.
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
1.2. WATER SOFTENERS
Hard water contains dissolved minerals in the form of Calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg), and Iron (Fe).
Removal of these mineral is accomplished by softening the water through an ion exchange process.
As the water flows through the mineral tank, the dissolved minerals become attached to the resin,
creating soft water. Over a period of time the resin will become exhausted, and the softener will be
regenerated using a brine solution produced from the salt in the brine compartment.
1.3. ADVANTAGES OF USING EZYSOFT
Extended appliance and equipment life
The minerals found in hard water can build up on the insides of appliances such as washing
machines, dishwashers and water heaters, reducing their working life and decreasing efficiency.
Ezysoft not only extends their lifespan but also benefits the environment by reducing waste and
conserving the raw materials and energy used in manufacturing.
Faster water heating
Hot water heaters can heat softened water more quickly than hard water, improving efficiency by
roughly 22 per cent for electric water heaters and 29 per cent for gas-powered units. Improving
efficiency with Ezysoft reduces energy consumption, resulting in significantly lower energy bills.
Cleaner plumbing system
Hard water leaves scaly deposits in plumbing fixtures and pipes, which can corrode and shorten
the life of your home’s plumbing system as they build up over time. Reducing mineral deposits with
Ezysoft helps eliminate the adverse effects of clogs and corrosion, extending the life of the plumbing
system and helping appliances and equipment operate more effectively.
1.4. KEY FEATURES
Environmentally friendly
Discharges to the environment are minimal – the regeneration is performance using a low ratio salt/
resin when compare with the standard resins. The quantity of salt used in Ezysoft per regeneration is
up to 50% less than the standard water softener without sacrificing the capacity.
Easy to use
The regeneration of the softener starts by just a twist. Ezysoft is also more efficient because it uses
a resin with beads of uniform size that increases its operating capacity when compare with the
standard resins. Also, Ezysoft does not require electricity.
