There is only a minimal increase in sodium. Salt is essential to regenerate the resin inside the tank, and after regeneration the salt water is rinsed out through a drain line. The ion exchange process adds a small amount of sodium. The amount of sodium in one 8 oz. glass of softened water is less than the sodium in one slice of bread. The exact amount of sodium will vary depending on the hardness of your water.
Enjoy all of the benefits of softer water with the peace of mind of knowing that your sodium intake is negligible. Contact Passaic Bergen Water Softening today for a FREE water test and taste what you’ve been missing.
