The present invention relates to methods, apparatuses, and systems for treating water. The methods, apparatuses and systems reduce scaling associated with solubilized water hardness using a sequence of water treatment agents, including a first threshold agent shedding weak cation exchange resin and a second magnesium compound conversion agent water treatment. The system or apparatus and methods according to the invention provide synergistic reduction of hard water scaling and elimination of cementing on the insoluble magnesium compound.

1. A method for reducing hard water scaling in a water source comprising: obtaining a first water treatment agent, wherein said first water treatment agent is an exhausted ionic resin that it is incapable of performing ion exchange;contacting a water source with the exhausted ionic resin in a first
1. A method for reducing hard water scaling in a water source comprising: obtaining a first water treatment agent, wherein said first water treatment agent is an exhausted ionic resin that it is incapable of performing ion exchange;contacting a water source with the exhausted ionic resin in a first treatment reservoir to form a treated water source; andcontacting the treated water source with a second water treatment agent in a second treatment reservoir, wherein the second water treatment agent comprises a metal oxide and/or hydroxide compound, wherein the first water treatment agent sheds a threshold agent, and wherein the solubilized water hardness in the treated water source does not result in hard water scaling. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the metal oxide and/or hydroxide compound is selected from the group consisting of insoluble metal oxides, insoluble metal hydroxides, and combinations thereof. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the metal oxide and/or hydroxide compound is selected from the group consisting of magnesium oxide, magnesium hydroxide, aluminum oxide, aluminum hydroxide, titanium oxide, titanium hydroxide, and combinations thereof. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the second water treatment agent does not cement. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the metal oxide and/or hydroxide compound is insoluble in water. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the metal oxide and/or hydroxide compound is contained in a column and the column is agitated by a method selected from the group consisting of the flow of water through the column, by fluidization, mechanical agitation, high flow backwash, recirculation, and combinations thereof. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the exhausted ionic resin is a weak cation exchange resin that is loaded with a plurality of one or more multivalent cations. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein the cation exchange resin is substantially water insoluble. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the threshold agent is an acrylic acid polymer, a methacrylic acid polymer or combinations thereof. 10. The method of claim 1, wherein the solubilized water hardness is increased in the treated water source and results in greater reduction of hard water scaling than use of an ionic resin water treatment agent or metal oxide and/or hydroxide compound water treatment agent alone. 11. A method of using a treated water source to clean an article comprising: obtaining a first water treatment agent comprising a substantially water insoluble ionic resin, wherein said ionic resin is exhausted so that it is incapable of performing ion exchange;contacting the water source with the ionic resin in a first treatment reservoir to form a treated water sourcetreating the water source with a second water treatment agent in a second treatment reservoir, wherein said second water treatment agent comprises a metal oxide and/or hydroxide compound, wherein the treating steps comprise running the water over a solid source of the first water treatment agent and running the water over the second water treatment source, wherein the ionic resin sheds a threshold agent, and wherein the solubilized hardness of the water is increased compared to the initial solubilized hardness of the water source; andcontacting an article with the treated water or a use solution formed by combining the treated water with an additional cleaning agent such that the article is cleaned without causing hard water scaling on the article. 12. The method of claim 11, wherein the ionic resin is a weak cation exchange resin loaded with a plurality of one or more multivalent cations and wherein the metal oxide and/or hydroxide is selected from the group consisting of magnesium oxide, magnesium hydroxide, aluminum oxide, aluminum hydroxide, titanium oxide, titanium hydroxide, and mixtures thereof. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the metal oxide and/or hydroxide is a magnesium oxide bed, cartridge or other type of container.
