How an EC4 Water Conditioning System Works:

Step 1
Downflow Conditioning:

Untreated water flows through the filter media where hardness-causing minerals are removed.

 

Step 2
Upflow Backwash:

The conditioning resin bed is “fluffed” to separate solids from the media.

 

Step 3
Downflow Brining:

The system injects the exact amount of brine (salt water) made from filtered water needed for full-strength regeneration of the system.

 

Step 4
Slow Downflow Brine Rinse:

Slow rinsing of the brine through the filter media provides a deep rinsing action to make sure all traces of salt are removed from the media bed.

 

Step 5
Fast Downflow Rinse:

Fast downflow rinse repacks the media, assuring maximum resin efficiency while removing any salt residue and any remaining traces of rust and iron.

 

Step 6
Treated Brine Makeup Refill:

TA precise, preset quantity of filtered water is used to make a clean brine solution for regeneration; other brands use raw, unconditioned water to clean the media bed.
