Brine Tank Asm. 18x40 Almond w/2310PU

For households that need a bit more salt capacity, the Nelsen 18" x 40" Round Almond Brine Tank Assembly steps up the height while keeping the familiar 18-inch diameter. This version comes equipped with a 2310 brine safety valve and brine pickup, giving you a complete, ready-to-install regeneration reservoir in a warm almond finish. As a matched assembly, it installs quickly and reliably without the hassle of sourcing individual parts.

The taller 40-inch tank stores more softener salt between refills, which can mean fewer top-offs for busy or higher-demand homes. The 2310 brine safety valve protects against overflow by shutting off brine fill at the proper level, while the brine pickup draws the saturated brine into your control valve during the draw cycle, completing the regeneration loop so the resin bed recovers its full softening capacity.

• Round almond polyethylene brine tank with cover
• 2310 brine safety valve for overflow protection
• Brine pickup for reliable brine draw
• Taller 18x40 size for added salt capacity
• Corrosion-resistant polyethylene construction

The brine tank is the heart of regeneration in an ion-exchange softener, holding the salt that dissolves into brine to recharge the resin bed and restore its ability to capture calcium and magnesium, the minerals that cause scale and spotting. A leak-free, properly equipped tank keeps that process reliable cycle after cycle. To maintain peak performance, keep salt above the water line, break up any salt bridging that forms, and rinse sediment from the base once or twice a year. Offered by Water Softener Plus on the trusted Nelsen platform, this almond assembly is a great choice when you want more salt storage in a standard-diameter tank.

A quick note on sizing and compatibility: Brine tanks like this one work hand in hand with the resin tank: while the resin captures hardness ions during normal service, the brine tank supplies the salt solution that strips those ions away during regeneration, returning the bed to full capacity. Sizing the tank to your salt-use habits and softener grain rating helps avoid frequent refills, and using clean, high-purity softener salt reduces sediment buildup while keeping the safety float and brine line clear.
