With the rapid development of industry, many sectors are seeking methods to improve the quality of their products. The adventage of water softening equipment has significantly aided businesses in improving water quality, leading to its increasingly widespread use in industrial settings. 

During the operation of water softening equipment, it is crucial to promptly identify and address any issues with high water hardness at the output, as failure to do so may disrupt the normal operation of the enterprise. But what exactly causes increased water hardness? Let's examine the reasons together.

1. Damaged sealing ring on the central pipe of the multi-way valve

This is the most common problem encountered during the initial installation of water softening equipment, and it is the main cause of high water hardness at the output. Therefore, when installing or replacing the sealing ring, it is important not to forget to apply lubricant.

2. Resin aging and loss of softening efficiency

Resin is a crucial component of water softening equipment. After the resin ages and loses its softening ability, it cannot be restored even with continuous regeneration. To prevent this problem, it is important to regularly replace the resin in the water softening equipment.

3. Inability to extract salt or short salt extraction time

If the salt extraction system of the water softening equipment is malfunctioning, it cannot replace the calcium and magnesium ions in the water, leading to high water hardness. It is crucial to regularly check the salt extraction system for malfunctions during the use of water softening equipment.

To guarantee that the water hardness from the water softening equipment meets the required standards, it is important to pay close attention to the three points mentioned above during the operation of the equipment.
