W2W Semi-Automatic Water Softeners are low maintenance and hard-wearing. They do not need an electricity supply.

We recommend regular checks and system sanitisation to make sure the system is working at optimum capacity and always add salt as recommended.

Prevent unsightly calcium and scale build-up on showers and appliances and protect sensitive skin by removing excess calcium, iron and magnesium with a water softener

Treats hard water and reduces skin irritation

W2W Semi-Automatic Water Softeners treat your mains water supply to remove excess calcium for softer water from every tap in your home.

This cost-effective water softener, designed and made in Australia to withstand harsh weather conditions is low maintenance and hard-wearing.

Most of Australia’s water supply is considered “hard,” and excess calcium can irritate sensitive skin and cause dry skin – especially on delicate young skin.

Excess calcium can also cause scale build-up on hot water appliances like coffee machines, kettles, AC units and washing machines and leave ugly water stains on shower screens.

How does it work?

Water Softeners are connected to your mains water supply before it enters your property.

Made from hard-wearing moulded plastic, the water softener’s brine tank can treat up to 40 litres of water per minute and has a capacity of 17,000 litres.

The resin filter removes excess calcium, iron and magnesium from the water before it is fed to your faucets, shower and water-fed appliances like kettles, coffee machines, AC units and washing machines.

Once you have added up to 50kg of salt, start the regeneration process by turning the mechanical timer to the required setting.

Regeneration then runs automatically and stops when the timer ends.

During regeneration, the water softener system flushes away the caught minerals to maintain the quality and softness of your water.

The process is similar to the salt rinse cycle used in dishwashers.

You need to add salt every 2 to 3 months depending on how much water you use and the quality and hardness of your source water.

The W2W Semi-Automatic Water Softener does not need an external power supply.

Installing a water softener

Most clients install water softeners on the outside of their property or in the garage.

The robust, Australian-made plastic-moulded cabinet is designed to perform in harsh weather conditions.

Connecting a water softener to the mains water supply should be carried out by a qualified plumber or water filtration technician.

Whole House, Complete Home Filtration or Water Softener?

We are often asked about the difference between Whole House, Complete Home Filtration and Water Softener systems.

Many of our customers expect a complete home filtration system to remove chlorine, contaminants and calcium.

To achieve this, you must combine a Water Softener with a Whole House or Complete Home Filtration System.

W2W’s Whole House Filtration system and W2W’s 3-Stage Complete Home Filtration system both use high-performance sediment and carbon filters to clean the water coming into your home.

The filtration process removes up to 99% of dirt, metals, chemicals and contaminants including chlorine, bacteria, herbicides and viruses.

Although this level of filtration makes water feel softer because dirt and particles are “sieved” out during the filtering process, it does not remove calcium which is the cause of hard water.

Only a dedicated Water Softener can remove excess calcium which is one of the main causes of dry skin and scale build-up in your appliances and shower screens.

Our W2W Ultimate Whole House Water Filter and Softener is an affordable, tailor-made water filtration and softening system.

The clever combination system filters water to remove contaminants AND softens water by removing calcium.

Maintaining a water softener

Water softeners are low maintenance and should last for many years.

We recommend regular checks to make sure there is adequate salt in the system and that it is working at optimum capacity.

Each regeneration uses around 4.5kg of salt and the tank has an overall capacity of 50kg.

Salt does not affect the taste of the softened water.

We do recommend regularly cleaning and sanitising the cabinet and checking for any damage that could allow contaminants to enter the unit.

As the name suggests, Automatic Water Softeners manage the regeneration process automatically for you.

With Semi-Automatic Water Softeners, you start the regeneration process by turning a mechanical timer to the required setting.

Regeneration then runs automatically and stops when the timer ends.

Fully automatic softeners need to be connected to an electricity supply and semi-automatic softeners don’t need an external power supply.
