Turb. Assem 1.05

The Turbulator Assembly 1.05 (TURB-1465-1050) is a tank distributor subcomponent designed for use in 14" x 65" mineral tanks, engineered to improve the regeneration efficiency of water softeners and filters. As a specialized internal distributor, the turbulator plays a quiet but important role in how effectively a treatment system cleans and recharges itself during each regeneration cycle.

A turbulator differs from a standard riser distributor by promoting agitation and improved flow distribution within the media bed during regeneration and backwash. This enhanced mixing action helps the brine or backwash water reach the media more uniformly throughout the tank, contributing to more thorough regeneration and better overall system performance. In larger tanks especially, getting even coverage across a deep bed is a real challenge, and the turbulator is designed to address exactly that.

Component Details

• Turbulator distributor assembly sized for 14" x 65" tanks
• Improves flow distribution during regeneration and backwash
• Promotes more uniform media contact for thorough cleaning
• Functions as an internal subcomponent of softeners and filters
• Lightweight at 1.13 lbs for straightforward replacement
• Compatible with appropriately sized larger-capacity systems

Within larger mineral tanks, achieving even distribution of water and regenerant across a deep media bed is essential to maintaining the system's rated capacity. If regenerant only reaches part of the bed, the unregenerated portion contributes little, and overall capacity drops while operating costs climb. The turbulator's design helps counter this by encouraging better movement of water through the bed, supporting the efficient regeneration that keeps a softener or filter performing at its full potential cycle after cycle.

As a replacement subcomponent, this assembly allows service technicians to restore proper distribution function when rebuilding or repairing a system in which the original distributor has been damaged or lost over time. Restoring even distribution can resolve complaints of reduced capacity, hardness leakage, or inconsistent performance that stem from poor internal flow. For installers and dealers working with larger-capacity tanks, the Turbulator Assembly 1.05 is a practical, affordable component that supports reliable, efficient operation. Be sure to match it to your tank size and distributor configuration for proper fit and the best results.
