Whole house water quality problems.HardnessBad tastesFoul odorsIronManganeseChlorine andharmful chlorineby-productsArsenicTurbidityTanninAcidic waterThe continuous water cycle . . .Nature intended us to have high quality water. This is why we have the continuous watercycle, whereby water from our oceans, rivers, lakes and streams falls to the ground asrain or snow and becomes filtered as it seeps through the earth's surface. As the waterworks its way through the ground, however, it picks up minerals by dissolving limestone,causing water hardness. Water may also come into contact with iron, manganese,Arsenic and other contaminants, which cause additional water treatment problems.The chart below lists typical whole house water quality problems and indicates whichequipment effectively corrects any problems you may have in your home.Water sMineral deposits on dishes and glassware; stiff, dingylaundry; high soap usage and need for fabric softeners; dry,itchy skin and scalp; unmanageable hair; extra work to removesoap curd on bathtubs and shower stalls; high energy costsdue to scale build-up in pipes and on appliances.Water Softener.Chlorine, foulodors and tastesChlorine taste; foul odors; damage to hair; itchy skin.Backwashingfilter usingactivated carbon.Iron &ManganeseUnpleasant metallic tastes; rust particles; staining onplumbing fixtures; red water; odors.Iron filter.TurbidityCloudy water; sediment, sand, silt and rust particles.Media filter.Acidic water(low pH)Green stains on bathroom sinks and other porcelainsurfaces; blue green water.

Watts water softeners"Hard" water is not considered unhealthy; however,hard water problems end up costing you moneythrough increased soap usage, reliance on watersoftening products and shorter life for appliances dueto scale build-up in pipes and other factors.To correct water hardness, Watts offers a wide rangeof water conditioning systems, designed to improvewater quality throughout your entire household.Enjoy these many benefits Watts water softeners provide Spot-free glassware and dishes.No mineral deposits on bathtubs and shower stalls.Brighter, softer laundry.Less reliance on water softening products.Dramatic reduction in soap usage.Manageable hair because shampoo works better.Pipes remain free of calcium scale build-up.Extended life of appliances and reduced energycosts because scale is virtually eliminated.Spot-free car wash (if softened water is used).Two equipment typesMetered valve forgreater efficiencyWatts water softeners are available in twoconfigurations, including:Our control valve ismetered for greaterefficiency and reducedsalt usage, becauseregeneration of thesoftener resin is basedon water consumption.Push button settingsprovide ease-of-use.Single tankSingle tank systems include one tank for thesoftening resin, a brine tank for salt, used toregenerate the softening resin and our meteredcontrol valve.Dual tankDual tank systems come with an additional tankwith activated carbon for pre-treatment, whichremoves chlorine, tastes and odors in municipalwater applications and extend the life of thesoftening resin.Model selection is typically based on water hardneess,water usage, water source and other factors.ModelsSingle tank modelsModel NumberCapacity(Grains Removal)Valve TypeConnectionSizeMineral TankBrine TankSafety 1"1"1"9" x 48"10" x 54"12" x 52"18" x 36"18" x 36"18" x al tank modelsModel NumberCapacity(Grains Removal)W3011W100SM-ST130,000Valve Type ConnectionSizeMetered1"*Prevents brine water overflow.3Mineral TanksTopBottom10" x 24"10" x 35"Brine TankSafety FloatValve*18" x 36"Yes

Watts whole house filters for ironand manganese reductionIron is one of the most common elements found in nature,and most ground waters contain a measurable amount ofiron. Iron stains bathtubs, toilets, sinks, driveways and itwill even stain the side of your house in sufficientconcentrations. Watts offers two media types to removeiron in point-of-entry applications.Two media typesFILOX A non-chemical oxidizing media to reduce Iron.Greensand-Plus An enhanced version of the traditional medium toremove iron from water.Filox system advantages Highest flow rate of any iron removal media. No oxidizing chemicals needed for regeneration. High efficiency with 80% manganese dioxide for enhancedperformance and capacity. Effective, from 5.0 to 9.0 pH. System is easy to program, with 10 pre-programmedregeneration cycles to optimize water treatment.Greensand-Plus system advantage Lower backwash requirements. Known saturation capacity. Higher temperatures and differential pressures thantraditional Manganese Greensand. Greensand-Plus is also used for radium reduction. User friendly, low maintenance electronic time clock valve.Note:The use of chemicals and oxidizers, such as chlorine,potassium permanganate and oxygen may be requiredfor both systems to provide the optimal treatment forIron, Hydrogen Sulfide and Manganese.Filox modelsPart meclockTimeclockTimeclockMineralMedia Gravel Service FlowTank Size Cubic Ft. 04.05.010102040501006912182427Drop(PSI) 15 15 15 15 15 15Back Wash Floor X6018X15X7420X17X7422X23X70Greensand Plus modelsPart lockTimeclockTimeclockTimeclockMineralMedia Gravel Service FlowTank Size Cubic Ft. 04.05.0101020405010053456712Drop(PSI) 15 15 15 15 15 15Back Wash Floor X6018X15X7420X17X7422X23X70
