Can a water softener cause air in the line?
Filling a spa or pool with a water softener will not cause you to have air in the plumbing. Air in your plumbing can be trapped regardless of your filling method. It's always best to run the jets for a few minutes prior to running the heater, to insure all the air from the lines has been bleed. In addition, not all Spa chemistry works well with soft water. Cleanwater Blue is one of the better sanitizing systems to use with any type of water.
What water process is usually used at home?
If by process, you mean some type of water softener, I would look into a water softener at our local home improvement store.

If you are referring to drinking water there are also options available at your local home improvement outlet for anything from in-line filters to reverse osmosis.
Can a water softener increase your water bill?
A water softener slightly increases the amount of water you will use in a home because it uses water to rinse the accumulated hardness down the drain every few days when it performs its regeneration cycle. A typical sized residential softener uses about 50 gallons of water during the regeneration cycle. In between regenerations, a typical sized softener will typically soften several thousand gallons. The actual amount depends on your in coming hardness and the amount of salt you use. If your incoming hardness is 20 grains, it may treat 1000 gallons, but if your incoming hardness is 7 grains it may treat 3000 gallons. Since most water bills depend upon usage, your water bill would go up by 1050/1000 = 5% on 20 grains hard water or 3050/3000 = 2% on 7 grains hard water. You will probably pay much more for the salt used by the softener over the course of 1 year than the added water. On the other hand, you may save much more on reduced cleaning products and soap, and over time you will save because appliances will last longer and your water heater will be more energy efficient running on soft water than on hard water.

Where to Install a New Water Softener?
When selecting the ideal location for installing a new water softener, it is best to install it near the water heater in your home that you will find the easiest place to tie the new unit into the existing plumbing system. The ideal location, near the water heater is typically in the utility room, garage, or basement of your home. Remember that your water softening system will also need to be within easy access range of both an electrical receptacle capable of handing the manufacturer specified amperage, and a utility sink or floor drain.
