Kent auto water softener 8L | Water Home Testing Kit | Solution for Hard Water

Ғылым және технология

Testing the Kent Bathroom auto softener and measuring water hardness. We have used this for 1+ year now. In this video I will test the water quality before and after using this softener using a water testing kit.

    I would not use edible salt or rock salt (contains a lot of calcium sulphate). Both these salts will clog up the resin over time and reduce the effectiveness of the softener. Stick to pellets that are rated at ninety nine point five pure. The price will be more but then the resin will last longer. As you've noticed there isn't a difference when testing initially but over a period of time the purer the salt the longer the life of the resin

    Thank you for this. If the water has a little sand in it from time to time, will it damage this softener? Or will it be able to handle it

    Kent sales people say it wastes only 5l of water during Regeneration. But is is definitely over 5 buckets of 20 l each after consuming 20 bucket of softened water. So it's min 25% wastage of water

    Great. One tip when using the TH5 solution is to invert the bottle and let a few drops fall into the sink and then hold it in that inverted state to add drops into the test tube. More manageable this way otherwise as you know invariably two or three more drops slip in. TH5 just seems more slippery than TH2 and dribbles out more easily. A drop to 50 ppm from 750 is significant. Is there a way to target a specific output hardness or is it fixed at 700 ppm reduction like your previous softener was for 500 ppm? Also wanted to know if you notice any variation in your water hardness throughout the year. Any pattern or is it more or less constant. My water supply gets softer during the monsoons and harder in the dry season. That is for river water.

    Thanks for the tip! I didn't understand what you mean by target specific output hardness. Our apartment has a water softener. So once a week the water does get better. But it barely lasts and that's why I went with a softener coz as you can see the hardness is off the charts.

    @@PaiTech I mean you measured output hardness at around 50 or below. That is a drop of 700 ppm from 750. By target, I mean can you program the softener to give you a specific hardness. Say you want 200 ppm. I was thinking you could extend your use period before having to regenerate. Presently it reduces from 750 to around 50 ppm. If it could be made to soften to 200 ppm instead of 50 maybe you would get five days before having to regenerate instead of the present 3 days it is set for. I bathe and do laundry just fine in my current 175 ppm water

    1:10 your drain pipe has a kink where it bends at a right angle !! You need to straighten that out as a constricted or blocked drain line will lead to salty-tasting water. Also, the drain line goes higher than the point it is connected to as you have draped it over your shower head. Incidentally, how is the taste of the softened water? Any salty taste or hardly any.

    Good point. It wastes a huge quantity of water and the sales people are full of lies. They say it wastes only 5l water whereas I see unlimited amount of water being thrown down the drain by this stupid product. This gentleman says it takes 3-4 hours for Regeneration whereas all the Kent staff says only 15-20 mins between 2-3am. It wastes at least 30-40% of the water it softens. Definitely avoidable product with water shortage all around. I manually switch off water supply to this thing so it stops wasting water. All kent and hul products are lame. Who needs a hardness of only 25-30...? Water with hardness below 100 dissolves even plastic. So what is the point of reducing hardness so much that you end up with plastic in your water from the store tank
