The 990S Plastic Distributor Head is engineered to enhance the efficiency and longevity of your water softener system. Designed to fit mineral tanks seamlessly, this distributor head ensures optimal water flow and distribution, preventing channeling and improving overall softening performance. As a trusted accessory in water treatment systems, it offers a reliable, corrosion-resistant solution that helps maintain consistent water quality.

Key Benefits

  • Promotes even water distribution for improved softening efficiency
  • Resists corrosion and mineral buildup for long-lasting durability
  • Lightweight plastic design reduces strain on mineral tanks and plumbing

How It Works

The 990S Plastic Distributor Head functions as a critical component inside your water softener’s mineral tank. It evenly distributes incoming hard water over the resin bed, ensuring all resin beads are fully utilized to soften water effectively. The distributor opening size of 1.050 inches is optimized to allow proper flow rates without causing backpressure or channeling.

By facilitating uniform water flow, this distributor head helps your system operate efficiently, preventing uneven resin regeneration and extending the lifespan of your softener components.

What to Expect

Once installed, you’ll notice smoother water flow through your softener system with reduced pressure drops. During the first few days, the distributor head quickly integrates with your existing setup, enhancing water distribution and softening consistency.

Over time, its durable plastic construction resists corrosion and mineral scaling, requiring minimal maintenance. Regular system checks will ensure continued performance, but this component is designed for reliable, long-term operation within your water treatment system.

What’s Inside

  • Plastic Distributor Housing – Provides a corrosion-resistant structure that withstands mineral deposits and water exposure.
  • 1.050-inch Distributor Opening – Allows optimal water flow and pressure balance within the mineral tank.
  • Secure Mounting Interface – Ensures a tight fit inside mineral tanks, preventing leaks and movement during operation.

How to Use

  1. Turn off the water supply and relieve pressure in the system before starting installation.
  2. Drain the mineral tank partially if necessary to access the distributor head location.
  3. Remove the old distributor head carefully, avoiding damage to the tank or resin bed.
  4. Insert the 990S Plastic Distributor Head into the mineral tank, ensuring the opening aligns correctly for proper water flow.
  5. Secure the distributor head firmly in place according to your system’s specifications.
