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 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 with all pressure tanks.
