Water Softener Solutions Right at Home (NAPSA)—Water softener systems are an effective means of combating hard water. However, rust and iron in hard water can have a negative effect on the softener. Left unchecked, rust and iron can build up in the resin bed of the softener, leading to decreased effectiveness, or in some cases, completely fouling the system. Remove rust and iron from your water softener while keeping your water safe. Fortunately, there are products out there that can help. You can use water softener salts which contain a rust remover. Or you can choose special additives that you pour directly in the brine tank or layer with salt. These additives can save you up to 20 percent over the rust remover salts. Perhaps the most readily available and widely distributed additive is a product called Super Iron Out. It works by changing the chemistry of iron, breaking it down into a clear solution that is then easily rinsed from the resin bed. It’s safe for your family, easy on your water softener and ideal for regular use. You will find the product at most grocery, home improvement, hardware and general merchandise stores.
