Q: Conditioners/Filters For Well Water

Posted by Jack on January 7, 2006, 8:51 am

The neutralizer and softener backwash every six days. What is the
purpose of backwashing? Thanks

To flush out the hardness that's been removed from the water. (I don't think
your neutralizer backflushes, just the softener.)
