Your New Water Softener
With over 75 years of experience we have manufactured your new Permutit
water softener to the highest standards from quality, corrosion-free materials,
to give you many years of trouble-free softened water.
The Permutit system, still taught in schools and colleges today, is simple. Hard
water passes through a cylinder containing a special softening resin. The
hardness minerals/in the water are removed by the resin, leaving softened
water. Periodically the resin is cleaned by rinsing with a brine solution which
then flushes the accumulated hardness minerals to a nearby drain. This
process is called regeneration. .
Your softener is easy to use - all you need to do is top up with salt from time
to time and the softener takes care of the rest, 24 hours a day.
