Key Features
Upflow Regeneration:
Saves salt by preserving the unused portion of the softening bed from unnecessary ion exchange.
Precision Brining:
Calculates the exact amount of brine required to regenerate, using up to 30% less salt.
Automatic System Refresh:
If no water is used for seven (7) days, the system will perform an automatic refresh to prevent bacteria growth.
Backwash Frequency Preset:
Save water each regeneration by skipping up to ten (10) backwash cycles on clean municipal water supply.
Soft Water Brine Tank Refill:
Keeps tank & injectors clean.
Soft Water Recharge:
If capacity goes below 3%, an automatic 15-minute recharge restores softening until the next regeneration.
Tank Features:
Brine tank with safety float, air check and injection molded brine grid to reduce bridging. Moisture wicking neoprene tank jacket included on all pressure tanks.
