Being a 48 000 grain capacity system and salt-based, means that this set up is hands down one of the most effective way to soften hard water. In simple terms, it uses resin beads and salt pellets to soften hard water, and requires regeneration to clean the resin beads every so often.

Sounds like a bit of work right? Wrong - Fleck have designed this system to be maintenance free, with a simple to use meter-based control system; just set your figures into the display computer all you have to do is replace the salt pellets every so often.

When you buy this system you get the softening system computer, and a large brine tank - so you will need a drain, and standard 120v power outlet handy for it to do its thing.

Made for a medium-large home, it's size is 10" x 54" (tank) with a 14" x 17" x 33" brine tank. Quite a large system in comparison to others on the market, so make sure you have sufficient room before you purchase. As a guide, it will take up about a 3ft X 18 inches wide areas once installed
