Everyday Series 64,000 Grain High Efficiency Water Softener

The 64,000 Grain Water Softener by Tier1 is here to help alleviate dry skin, hair, and scaling pipes due to hard water in your 4-5 bathroom home. The Tier1 Water Softener features a No-Maintenance ceramic disk valve that doesn't need annual maintenance like piston, seal and spacer valves. The efficient metered valve regenerates only when you need it and the simple programming options give you control over the full regeneration. The Softener also has a durable reinforced FRP tank, high quality 8% cross-linked resin, and automatic bypassing during regeneration. Tier1 Water Softeners are your solution to hard water problems, order yours today!

Calculating Capacity with Grains of Hardness

When a water softener is referring to 'grains' it's talking about how many grains of hardness it can process before regenerating. Grains of hardness processed depends on how large your household is, as well as how hard your water actually is.

With water that has 20 grains per gallon of hardness, you'll need to divide the total grain capacity of the softener by 20 to get the total gallons of water the softener has the capacity to treat. Using a 48,000 grain softener as an example you get the equation (48,000 / 20 = 2,400), so the 48,000 grain softener can soften 2,400 gallons of water at max capacity. However, most water softeners are programmed to do their regeneration at night so they need to be programmed with some capacity in reserve to continue softening water until the next regeneration time.

We recommend slightly overestimating reserve capacity because a reserve capacity that is too high will only make the softener a little less salt efficient. However a reserve capacity that is too low will cause hardness breakthroughs between regenerations.
