The MAX Orange Line will open on schedule on Saturday, Sept. 12, 2015, and while construction is 95 percent complete, the federal funding process continues through 2019.

The most common household form of water softeners are ion-exchanging resin devices. There are three main types of water softeners, categorized based on what salt they use: sodium, potassium, or hydrogen. These water softeners have a bed of resin that water is passed through. The resin is negatively-charged, and so binds to the positively charged metal ions in the hard water.
Install a water softener in your home. Hard water contains dissolved calcium, magnesium, lime and iron. Use water softener salts specially formulated to remove iron from water and prevent rust stains in bathtubs, sinks, toilet bowls and laundry. These water softener salts often go by the names of Rust Out, Red Out or Iron Fighter Pellets.
