As water moves through rocks, it dissolves various minerals and becomes “hard”. Hardness of water is defined by concentration of bivalent alkaline earth metal ions, first of all calcium (Ca2+) and magnesium (Mg2+) in it. These elements naturally get in water owing to interaction of carbon dioxide with carbonate minerals.
Hard water causes problems in maintenance of equipment, which have a contact to hot water (boilers, pipes and etc.). Heated hard water forms a scale of calcium and magnesium minerals that can contribute to the inefficient operation or failure of water-using appliances.
Water softeners operate on the ion exchange process when hard water passes through the softening material and ions Ca2+ and Mg2+ are replaced by Na+ ions.
