What is the difference between commercial water softeners and water softeners?

Commercial Water Softeners are designed for extensive use and minimal repair. A water softener is designed to remove Calcium, Magnesium, minimal to moderate iron, and manganese out of water. Commercial Water Softeners are designed for easy repair. They are more expensive, but very simple when it comes to pulling motors, changing valves, and replacing switch boards. A "water softener" that you buy off the shelf or from a dealer is a softener that is designed to take far less load, or "burden", and thus it often needs replacing. The word I am looking for in a Commercial Water Softener is "serviceable". Commercial water softeners are made to be serviced and work year after year. Yes you can service consumer grade softeners but they are not designed to be serviceable - or we would all service our own. The Softener Industry designs Commercial Softeners so they are easy for the them to service, but still bill-able to you. When pulling a consumer grade softener apart you find - bearings and wheels. But if you take the face off commercial models - the motor comes out easily (just unplug it) - the valve takes a little more time, but replacing the computer board is as easy as unplugging the wires. For Residential use - a commercial water softener is a minimal repair softener system, with prolonged life. If you are using a commercial water softener for commercial purposes - because of industrial use, it will need scheduled services. When compared to consumer grade softeners - commercial water softeners are excellent performers.
