Description

Enhance Water Softener Efficiency with the BG18-4 Brine Grid – Reliable Brine Tank Support for Optimal Salt Dissolution

The BG18-4 Brine Grid is engineered to improve the performance of your water softener’s brine tank. Unlike generic brine tank components, this 18-inch round, 4-inch height grid provides superior support for salt pellets, preventing bridging and promoting consistent salt dissolution. As a critical brine tank accessory, it ensures your water treatment system operates smoothly and efficiently, reducing maintenance needs and enhancing salt usage.

Key Benefits

  • Prevents salt bridging to maintain consistent brine solution levels
  • Supports salt pellets evenly for optimal dissolution and regeneration
  • Durable construction withstands moisture and salt corrosion over time
  • Fits perfectly in 18-inch round brine tanks to simplify installation
  • Enhances overall water softener efficiency by improving salt use
  • Lightweight design avoids adding unnecessary weight to your system

How It Works

The BG18-4 Brine Grid sits inside the brine tank beneath the salt pellets, creating a stable platform that prevents salt from compacting into solid blocks, or "bridges." This setup allows water to flow freely through the salt, dissolving it evenly to form a consistent brine solution needed for effective water softening regeneration cycles.

By maintaining proper salt dissolution, the brine grid ensures your water softener can recharge its resin beads efficiently, leading to better removal of hardness minerals and prolonged system life.

What to Expect

After installing the BG18-4 Brine Grid, you’ll notice fewer issues with salt bridging and clumping in your brine tank. This immediate improvement makes salt replenishment easier and more predictable. Within the first few regeneration cycles, expect more consistent brine concentrations that help your system perform at its best.

Over time, the grid’s durable design minimizes the need for frequent cleaning or replacement, supporting reliable water softener operation with minimal maintenance.

What’s Inside

  • Brine Grid Plate – engineered to support salt pellets evenly and prevent bridging
  • Corrosion-Resistant Material – designed to withstand prolonged exposure to salt and moisture
  • Precision Fit Design – tailored for 18-inch round brine tanks to ensure stability and ease of installation

How to Use

  1. Turn off your water softener and drain the brine tank if necessary.
  2. Remove any existing components or debris from the brine tank bottom.
  3. Place the BG18-4 Brine Grid flat at the base of your 18-inch round brine tank.
  4. Refill the tank with salt pellets, evenly distributing them over the grid.
  5. Restore power and water supply to your softener system and monitor the next regeneration cycle.
