Water Softener Operation

Water softeners remove unwanted minerals from the water supply. Wolfe is one of only two companies in the Hudson Valley that have been certified to sell the Sanitizer® by WaterRight®

Below is an graphic that illustrates how water softners work.

Steps:

BrineTank is 2/3 filled with Salt Crystals

Untreated Water enters Brine tank and becomes saturated with salt (sodium)

Sodium saturated water transferred to Resin Tank

Polystyrene Beads attract the Sodium Molecules
Unneeded extra salt water is purged to waste line
The Resin Tank is now ready to treat Hard Water

Untreated (Hard) Water enter Resin Tank

Calcium & Magnesium (Hard Water) trade places with Sodium Molecules
Calcium & Magnesium are now attached to Polystyrene Beads
(No more Sodium Molecules to trade? Go back to Step #3)

Softened Water is released to household.

I recently had central air system installed on the first floor of my house. I had used another installer to do the second floor last year. Last years experience was full of headaches. Just as I am quick to let someone know I am not satisfied, I believe I should give credit were credit is due.

Your employees who did the installation, Matt Mike and Jonathan were nothing less than professional and courteous. They were neat and knowledgeable. They went out of their way to make everything as good as it could be. Your sales and engineering representatives also deserve credit. Vance (sales) and Vince (engineering) were also a pleasure to deal with.

I would recommend your company (and will) to anyone who asks.
