Softening Resin

We use 8% Cation resin simply because its the most efficient media for normal water softening requirements including well water. If you are on a chlorinated, municipal or city water supply select the 10% Cation Resin as it is more chemical resistant than 8%. If you have high iron and or manganese you can choose FM or Fine Mesh resin as it is easier to clean.

Please direct any questions or water reports you have to us so we can help you choose the right size and system for your home & water.

Electronic Controls

This system comes with the WS1 CS controls, we also have other WS1 control boards (EA, EE, CC, CI, PR) which may be used when you are also buying a iron filter for example or have a special need for controlling additional devices such as NHWB valves, separate source valves and parallel valve installations.

*Shipping

Homes with two zeros in their postal code or other out of the way places may require an additional shipping charge or we can sometimes break down the system into a few boxes and ship it via courier instead of ltl on a truck. Call or write to find out more if you live a little out of the way.

The right system & the right size:

A resin-based exchange system that uses sodium is still the most effective way to remove hardness (calcium & magnesium) from your water supply. They can also remove ferrous iron and colloidal manganese.

There are a few things to consider when selecting your systems size.

Family size (how many people are in your home), home size (number of bathrooms & kitchens), specialty water use appliances like side spraying showers, peak service flow rate, and water chemistry are all important factors in sizing your new home softening system.

What is the intended maximum flow rate in your home? Why is this important... a single cubic foot of resin media has a recommended maximum flow rate of 5gpm (gallons per minute). So a 1cuft system is a 5gpm system, 1.5cuft = 7.5gpm, 2.0cuft = 10gpm

Don't know your flow rate... Fixture counts and the number of people is a practical way when you have the endless water supply, well-pumping systems often are the limiting factor and if you're not sure a simple bucket test using a short garden hose from your tank tee/manifold, outside tap or yard hydrant will work great.

If you have ferric iron, high iron, high manganese, and or H2S Hydrogen Sulphide, contact us with the details and we can find the right variation or supplemental system for you.

Do you already have a water test or know your water content? Send it along to us and we can size the system with you.

Additional Options:

Clack has made some really great additional options for this valve, including, a vertical by-pass adapter which allows you to shorten the installation room needed and position the by-pass valve either pointing up or down. The is also a mixing or blending valve available for those that need to blend some hardness back into the water supply.

This system is also an amazing water and salt miser while it removes, hardness, iron and manganese from your home. The fully metered electronic valve uses only small amounts of salt and only cleans when needed based on your homes water usage & chemistry.
