How do water softeners work?
calcium ions on the resin beads.

Why do water softeners need regeneration?
being effective. To refresh the system, a brine solution of sodium chloride—made from salt pellets or block
sodium. The calcium and magnesium, along with the remaining brine, is then drained and flushed with clean water.

What are the advantages?
Canister style systems work on exactly the same principle as the replaceable cartridge based systems, except that when the resin beads become full of minerals and are no longer effective,  the canister sytem can be refreshed and used again.  Disposable water softener cartridges must be replaced.  With proper maintenance, canister based systems offer excellent protection from mineral scale, and are the most cost effective solution in the long run.

What are the disadvantages?
Canister style systems MUST be refreshed to maintain effectiveness.  This process can be preformed by a service professional or by you in a sink with a few extra hoses.  The process is not difficult and can be completed in less than an hour.  The problem is that MANY people do not keep up on the annual or semi-annual service required, the result is completely innefective scale protection.
