This whole house system pairs a self-backwashing tannin removal tank with a water softener, moving water through 4 stages of filtration and conditioning.
Highlights
- Self-backwashing tannin removal tank uses a microprocessor control valve that meters water use and automatically initiates a backwash cycle to clean the filtration bed
- Softener stage conditions hard water by exchanging calcium and magnesium for softer ions via an ion exchange mineral tank and brine water conditioner
- 20" sediment pre-filter cartridge removes silt, sand, and dirt ahead of the tannin and softening stages
- Final 20" solid carbon cartridge stage targets VOCs, pesticides, and industrial solvents
- Low maintenance — requires only periodic sodium or potassium pellets in the brine tank
- Optional leak detector valve and UV disinfection stage available
