Softening
CGS is a standard crosslinked cation resin optimized for residential and commercial applications. This type of resin is easier to regenerate than the higher crosslinked resins. CGS has marginal resistance to chlorine and other oxidants and is not ideal for high temperature and other high stress applications.
