Ion Exchange - The Cost-Effective Alternative to Reverse Osmosis

​How are nitrates, sulfates, and tannins removed from well water? While it is best known that reverse osmosis (RO) systems can remedy these problems, you can use another more economical way of treating a specific issue in your water: ion exchange. This is better known as water softening because calcium ions are exchanged for salt ions, but the same process can be used for nitrates, sulfates, and tannins as well.  Our featured line of "Eater" water softeners has been designed for the precise removal of hard water as well as these contaminants. First, let's review exactly what Nitrates, Sulfates, and Tannins are...
