Properly sizing a water softener based on water conditions, water usage, and the local plumbing it will connect to is important for best resin life. The ideal regeneration period is 8 days, if your system to taking longer to regenerate then you may wish to consult an expert to check that it is set up correctly and that it’s proper size.

Routine maintenance and inspection is a great way to ensure your water softener continues to function as intended. Cleaning the cabinet and removing any buildup is important for the efficiency of the unit as minerals can build up inside. Check your water quality and schedule regular inspections to prevent the system from becoming clogged or failing.
