Q: We have moved into
a house with a water softener installed. We have never had one
in the past and are looking for information on how they work and
what they do. It is a Kenmore solid state with demand initiated
regeneration. We would appreciate any instructional information
you can furnish.A: Thanks for your inquiry. Let me refer you to an article in the ServiceMagic Resource Center entitled "Hard Water and Water Softeners" by columnist Don Vandervort. If you look under Project Planning, you will find it under Plumbing and it explains how water softeners work.
You also might call Sears and see if they can send you a manual for your particular model.
If you need a referral for someone to service your water softener or make any other types of home improvements, please visit Service Magic, join as a member, and let us help you find the ideal service professional in your area.
Good luck!
