Ion Exchange & Water Softener Sizing Calculator

Calculate resin volume, vessel size, salt consumption, and regeneration requirements for water softening and ion exchange systems.

Water Quality & Operating Parameters
GPM
1 gpg = 17.118 ppm as CaCO₃
ppm (mg/L)
Each 1 ppm iron adds ~5 gpg equivalent hardness demand on resin
hours
Typical: 24 hours (daily regen) to 72 hours for light use
lbs / ft³ resin
Low salt: 6 lbs/ft³ (20K grains) | Mid: 10 lbs/ft³ (27K grains) | High: 15 lbs/ft³ (30K grains)
