How is Natursorb with Filtersorb SP different from Ion exchange(salt)?
The Natursorb system using Filtersorb SP is not a softener in the traditional sense. The classical water-softening unit operates on the basis of Ion exchange; exchanging calcium and magnesium ions in watr with an equivalent amount of sodium (salt). When a water softener is used the result is not only soft water, but also increased sodium content in the water supply. Additionally these softening units require water for backwashing and common brine water “salt water” for regeneration.
