BG1517, Brine Grid, 15x17, H1071-01

Optimize Your Water Softener Performance with the BG1517 Brine Grid for Efficient Salt Distribution

The BG1517 Brine Grid, sized 15x17 inches, is a vital component designed to enhance your water softener’s efficiency and longevity. Unlike generic brine tank components, this high-quality brine grid ensures optimal salt usage and prevents common issues like salt bridging and sediment buildup. Specifically engineered for reliable salt distribution, it’s an essential accessory to maintain a consistent and effective water treatment process.

Key Benefits

• Improves salt dissolution for better softening performance
• Prevents salt bridging, reducing maintenance and downtime
• Supports even brine flow to enhance regeneration cycles
• Durable design withstands prolonged exposure to salt and water
• Easy to install and compatible with standard 15x17 brine tanks
• Reduces sediment accumulation, protecting your water softener components

How It Works

The BG1517 Brine Grid fits inside your water softener’s brine tank, creating a raised platform that holds salt above the water level. This design promotes even contact between the salt and water, allowing salt to dissolve consistently and form a strong brine solution. By maintaining proper salt distribution, the brine grid ensures effective regeneration of the resin beads, which is critical for softening hard water.

Without a brine grid, salt can compact and form bridges or blockages that interrupt the brining process. This component eliminates those issues by providing structural support and improving salt flow, which leads to smoother operation and longer system life.

What to Expect

Once installed, you’ll notice your brine tank operates more efficiently with less frequent salt bridging or clumping. In the first few days, the brine solution will form more evenly, enhancing your water softener’s regeneration cycles. Over the following weeks, you’ll experience fewer interruptions and improved soft water quality due to consistent salt usage.

Long-term, the BG1517 grid helps protect your system from sediment buildup and salt blockages, reducing maintenance needs and extending the lifespan of your water softener components.

What’s Inside
