When the soft water tends to be saturated with Cl, Ca, Mg, etc., the adsorption of the soft water is reduced, and the soft water needs to be reduced. The reduction water enters the regeneration water cavity through the regeneration water inlet 121 of the water softener 100 to form salt water, when the adsorption capacity of the soft water is reduced, the regeneration control valve 113 is controlled to enable the regeneration water inlet 121 to feed water, the softening water inlet 122 is closed, the regeneration water cavity is communicated with the soft water cavity, the salt water in the regeneration water cavity enters the soft water cavity, the salt water flows into the soft water cavity to be subjected to reduction treatment, the softening capacity of the soft water is recovered, and the salt water subjected to reduction treatment is discharged from the softening water outlet 123 or the water outlet channel 153. When the reduction is not required, the regeneration control valve 113 is controlled such that the regeneration water inlet 121 is closed and the soft water inlet 122 is opened, and the soft water chamber can perform the soft water operation. The soft water cavity can be filled with resin or other soft water substances capable of absorbing Cl, Ca, Mg and other ions.
It should be noted that the brine after reduction treatment can be directly discharged when being discharged from the softened water outlet 123 or the water outlet channel 153; or the original water path can be manually cut off, and the softened water outlet 123 or the water outlet channel 153 is directly communicated with the outside, so that the salt water after reduction treatment is prevented from flowing through the original water path and being discharged to the outside.
As shown in fig. 1, the water softener 100 further comprises a salt adding port 125, the salt adding port 125 is disposed in the water softener 100, the salt adding port 125 is communicated with the regeneration water cavity, and the regeneration salt can be added into the regeneration water cavity through the salt adding port 125 for reduction treatment.

The regeneration inlet 121 may be directly connected to an external water supply facility, and the soft water may be regenerated and reduced with water from the external water supply facility. The regeneration water inlet 121 can also be connected with an external storage space, so that softened water is utilized to carry out regeneration reduction treatment on soft water, and the regeneration reduction effect is improved. The regeneration water inlet 121, the softening water inlet 122, the softening water outlet 123 and the storage water inlet 124 can be arranged in a straight line, so that the regeneration water inlet 121, the softening water inlet 122, the softening water outlet 123 and the storage water inlet 124 are arranged in a centralized manner, water pipe connection is facilitated, and a water path is simplified.
The water flow in the water softener 100 thus has three paths: the first route is that water can flow into the soft water chamber from the soft water inlet 122, and be softened in the soft water chamber, and the softened water is discharged to the external storage space from the soft water outlet 123. The second route is that water flows from the external storage space into the water outlet channel 153 from the storage water inlet 124 and is discharged through the water outlet channel 153. The third route is that water can flow into the regeneration water cavity from the regeneration water inlet 121, salt is absorbed in the regeneration water cavity to form brine, the brine flows into the soft water cavity again, and finally the brine is discharged from the softened water outlet 123 or the water outlet channel 153. When the salt in the softening regeneration cavity is consumed to a certain extent, the regeneration salt is supplemented from the salt adding port 125.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 1 and 4, water retaining grooves 129 are formed outside the softening water inlet 122, the softening water outlet 123, the storage water inlet 124 and the regeneration water inlet 121, at least one overflow groove 171 is formed at the edge of the water retaining groove 129, and the orientation of the overflow groove 171 is staggered with the position of the electric devices of the water softener 100. Preferably, the water blocking groove 129 is provided with two overflow grooves 171 along a position distant from the electric devices, and the overflow grooves 171 are oriented in a staggered manner from the position of the electric devices of the water softener 100. When water leakage occurs at the regeneration water inlet 121, the softening water inlet 122, the softening water outlet 123 and the storage water inlet 124, water is blocked at the water blocking groove 129, and when the water rises to a certain extent, the water flows away through the overflow groove 171, so that the water leakage is prevented from contacting the electric device, and the water blocking groove 129 and the overflow groove 171 protect the electric device, thereby preventing the electric device from being damaged or risking when water leakage occurs.
