Brine Tank Asm. 11x38 Almond w/500 Air

The 11x38 Almond Brine Tank Assembly with 500 air check is a straightforward, value-minded salt tank kit for residential water softeners. It centers on a durable Nelsen polyethylene tank and includes the air-check hardware needed for reliable refill cycles, in a clean configuration without a separate float safety valve.

The Fleck 500 air check is the key functional component in this setup. At the end of the brine refill, it closes to stop air from being drawn into the resin tank, which protects the resin bed and keeps regeneration consistent cycle after cycle. Paired with the brine well, overflow elbow, and tubing, it forms a complete, working brine system suited to softeners whose control valves handle the overfill timing.

Why choose this configuration

Not every system needs a float-style safety valve, many modern control valves meter the brine fill precisely on their own. For those setups, this air-check-only assembly is a lean, cost-effective choice that does everything required without extra hardware to maintain. Fewer moving parts can also mean fewer points of potential wear over the long run.

The molded poly tank stands up to constant salt and brine contact, resisting the corrosion that would quickly degrade lesser materials, so it delivers years of dependable service. The neutral Almond color blends quietly into basements and utility rooms, and the compact square footprint tucks neatly beside the resin tank. As a complete, coordinated assembly from Water Softener Plus, it simplifies new installs and tank replacements alike, giving installers a no-frills brine tank that is ready to put to work the moment it arrives.

Upkeep is refreshingly simple: keep the tank topped with quality softener salt, break up the occasional salt bridge, and inspect the 500 air check during routine service. With its lean, air-check-only design, this Almond assembly is an economical, low-maintenance brine solution well suited to softeners whose control valves meter the fill on their own. For budget-conscious installs that rely on valve metering rather than a float valve, it arrives ready to plumb in with everything matched and accounted for.
