How to Size a Water Softener

Softener sizing uses measured hardness, household water consumption, peak flow, and any compensated hardness required for certain iron conditions. Capacity claims should be evaluated alongside salt efficiency and regeneration settings. Correct sizing avoids both frequent regeneration and long stagnant intervals. A personalized calculation is more dependable than choosing by bedroom count alone.
