Brine Tank Asm. 15x17x36 Charcoal w/230

When a square brine reservoir is the right fit for a tight space, the Nelsen 15" x 17" x 36" Charcoal Brine Tank Assembly equipped with a Fleck 2300 brine safety valve is a proven, all-in-one solution. Built from durable polyethylene with a low-profile charcoal cover, it stores softener salt and prepares the concentrated brine that recharges your softening resin during each regeneration cycle. Because everything ships together as a matched set, installation is faster and you avoid the fitment headaches that come with mixing and matching loose components.

Complete Assembly Contents

• Polyethylene square brine tank with fitted cover
• 4" brine well with cap to protect the float and valve
• Fleck 2300 brine safety valve to prevent tank overflow
• Brine overflow elbow plus connecting tubing
• Integrated brine pickup for reliable brine draw

The Fleck 2300 safety valve is the defining feature of this configuration. It acts as a mechanical safeguard, shutting off the brine fill once the proper level is reached and adding a second layer of overflow protection on top of the standard overflow elbow. That redundancy matters in finished basements and living spaces where a salt-water spill would be costly to clean up and could damage flooring or nearby equipment.

At roughly 15 by 17 inches and 36 inches tall, this charcoal tank is engineered for installations where floor space is limited but meaningful salt capacity still matters. The square footprint slides neatly into corners and closets where round tanks won't go, while the 36-inch height keeps the refill lid at a comfortable level. Routine upkeep is straightforward: keep the salt level above the water line, periodically check for salt bridging or mushing at the bottom, and inspect the safety float for free movement. Compatible with most standard residential softener control valves, this Nelsen assembly from Water Softener Plus takes the guesswork out of replacing an aging or cracked brine tank.

When planning your installation, keep a few practical points in mind. In everyday operation, your softener draws brine from this tank only during regeneration, then refills it with metered water to dissolve fresh salt before the next cycle. Pairing the tank with quality pellet or solar salt minimizes mushing and bridging, while an occasional full clean-out, emptying the tank, rinsing the interior, and checking the float or air check, keeps draws strong and regenerations efficient for years.
