When you are away from your house for any period of time, you must shut off the water from
the device.
The softener system operates with pressures between 2 Bar and 6 Bar. For higher pressures, a pressure

INTRODUCTION
What it a water softener?
A water softener is a system that removes the scale from the water. Unlike reverse osmosis does not remove
the salts, bacteria, viruses and other elements that can hold water, ie only removes scale.
Here are some of the advantages of having a home water softener installed:
- Saving electricity and less water consumption.
- Lower consumption of chemicals, cleaning, hygiene, etc...
- Protection of Plumbing, heating equipment and hot water generators.
- Protection of appliances (washing machines, dishwashers, etc..)
- Protection of the skin and hair.
- Protection of fittings, screens, etc..
How as the lime is removed by the water softener?
The softeners remove scale from water by ion exchange.
Low consumption softeners softeners are differentiated by standard components used in their construction,
so that they need less time for regeneration and as a result, consumption of salt and water used for the rege-
neration of the resins are less monospherics.
Operating System:
The water softener process consists of two cycles: service and regeneration.
SERVICE: Water proviniente network, going by the resins containing the softener, it leaves attached to them,
among other minerals, lime and magnesium it contains. The water freed of these minerals and passes the
consumer circuit.
