## Overview

Res Care Liquid Water Softener Cleaner is a powerful, NSF-certified solution designed to restore fouled resin beds by removing iron, manganese, and metallic contaminants.

## Description

Res Care All-Purpose Water Softener Cleaner Liquid is a powerful, reliable cleaning agent to keep resin clean and your water softener functioning at maximum levels. Res Care is formulated to restore fouled resin beds and eliminate mineral deposits and other contaminants in your water softener through a simple, continuous drip with the Easy Feeder system. Fouled resin beds can keep your water softener from performing properly, leaving you with discolored water filled with impurities. Res Care is designed to clear the softener of contaminants that salt alone fails to remove, preventing the buildup of contaminants that coat the resin beads, causing inefficiencies, and in some cases, total failure of your softener. Using resin cleaner also increases the lifespan and efficiency of your water softening system. The Res Care Liquid Refill four-pack provides 10 months of continual water softener cleaning when used with the Pro Products Easy Feeder.

Review: Review update 4+ years after 1st cleaning. - I used this product in two 64,000 gr resin beds over 5 years old in a house with greater than 5 occupants using the water from our well and water softener. I did each twice. The amount of iron etc. that came out in the rinse was significantly better than with Iron outt and salt alone. I believe the resin bed was cleansed from some impurities that I could not significantly remove during a normal ion exchange cleansing with salt and Iron outt. I have now returned to only using salt and the resin works much better than before the use of this product. I will use this again if I notice the resin bed needing an early regeneration or probably at yearly intervals. There was a taste of the phosphoric acid in the drinking water until the resin had been cleansed with salt only using two additional regeneration cycles. You may want to increase your rinse time on your unit to speed the process. Update: 9.17.15: I was only using salt with the salt purchased in 50 lb bags with the iron reduction addition. After 2 years, the efficiency of the resin bed was decreasing and occasionally I would have to early regenerate a cycle due to the complaint of a smell or hardness occurring. I did not want to run the full strength 4 oz per cubic foot of resin as it previously took 2 regeneration cycles to remove the phosphoric acid taste, thus I tried 2 oz with my longer backwash time as I mentioned earlier. I also changed the setting on my water hardness to a higher number which will cause the control unit to give me less gallons per next regeneration cycle (in my case from 1800 gallons to about 1400 gallons and thirdly increased by brine refill which will utilize more salt and a better ion exchange per cycle). After the 1st cycle the unit works great and with my longer backwash no noticeable taste by family members of the phosphoric acid using 2 oz in the salt tank. I continued manually adding 2 oz to my salt tank prior to regeneration and a month later and the water has been close to perfect in the house. Will use when needed with 2 oz res care per cycle and planning on using it at least monthly to help keep the resin clean and effective. Things to remember: 1. The resin will become less effective over time vs. when new so expect its ion exchange ability to diminish over time 2. If on well water the iron and other hardness factors needing to be removed may change over time. 3. the cost of a bag of salt is meaningless compared to the family complaints of stinky hard water forcing me to get up and run regeneration cycles at night etc. is not desirable; so , prevent this experience at all costs by changing the parameters above and as in my case only getting 1400 gallons divided by 5 equals 280 five gallon bottles or about $700 worth of "good" water if purchased from a supermarket. It's still a good value and don't go for the max 1800 gallons as in my case as it is not worth the risk. I answered unknown blue color question in question section today: unknown blue color in salt tank is probably Ferrous Phosphate precipitate from some phosphate combining with iron in the water (inorganic chemistry lab). I think its quite pretty and of no concern to me. Update: 8.22.17 The water has been good as long as I add about 3 to 4 oz to salt tank with each regeneration cycle as preventative maintenance...
Review: One of the best things you can do for your water softener - I know some people will disagree with me but for the most part salt is salt. What's different and what people need to understand is you need to keep your resin bed in the best possible condition. If you do that, your softener will last a very long time and one of the things you need to take care of or pay attention to is iron. Iron is the enemy of any water softener resin bed. This is a good product that keeps the iron flushed from your system and restores the resin beds. You need an automatic dispenser for it but it really does the job.

I didn’t know you have to regularly clean your water softener. This chemical helps maintain that condition.
