RS WATER SERVICE
Answer: In some cases
Explanation: In a properly operating water softener the pressure drop is minimal. If the softener has not been properly maintained and has not regenerated as required then you will notice a significant drop in pressure. We test this by opening a hose bib (spigot) near the softener and place the softener in bypass, if there is a significant drop in pressure you will know that your softener has become clogged. In a properly operating softener I find it difficult to notice any change in pressure.

Answer: In some cases
Explanation: Softeners may cause a drop in pressure due to resistance from the resin bed. Our customers don't use softeners because there are other more effective ways to deal with scale that are less expensive and don't require ongoing maintenance.
