Description

Reliable Commercial Brine Well for Efficient Water Softener Performance

The BW5048S Commercial Brine Well 5x48 Slotted (H1033-48S) is designed to optimize your water softener system by ensuring consistent brine draw and preventing sediment clogging. Unlike standard brine wells, this slotted design provides enhanced durability and reliable operation, making it an essential component for commercial water softening setups. Its robust construction addresses common issues found in brine tank components and accessories, offering a safer and more efficient solution for your water treatment needs.

Key Benefits

  • Improves brine solution flow for consistent water softening cycles
  • Prevents sediment buildup to protect your system’s longevity
  • Durable slotted design ensures reliable performance under heavy use
  • Fits standard 5x48-inch brine tanks for easy replacement
  • Reduces maintenance frequency by minimizing clogging risks
  • Supports commercial-grade water softening systems with heavy-duty build

How It Works

The BW5048S brine well functions as a critical conduit inside your brine tank, channeling the salt-saturated water (brine) from the tank to the water softener’s control valve. Its slotted structure allows brine to flow freely while filtering out sediment and salt pellets that could clog the system. By maintaining a clean and steady brine draw, the brine well helps ensure your water softener regenerates efficiently and consistently.

Installed vertically within the brine tank, the well’s design supports optimal brine distribution, preventing salt bridging and maximizing the solution’s effectiveness during the regeneration process.

What to Expect

Once installed, you will notice smoother regeneration cycles with fewer interruptions caused by clogged brine lines. In the first few days and weeks, the brine well helps maintain consistent brine flow, improving your system’s overall performance and water softness. Over time, this component reduces the need for frequent cleaning or repairs related to sediment buildup, enhancing long-term reliability and saving you time on maintenance.

With routine inspection and proper salt refilling, the BW5048S continues to deliver dependable service, supporting your commercial water softener system in delivering clean, softened water day after day.

What’s Inside

  • Slotted polyethylene tube – Provides durable, corrosion-resistant housing that filters sediment while allowing unrestricted brine flow
  • Top cap with vent holes – Ensures proper air circulation to prevent vacuum lock during brine draw
  • Bottom strainer – Prevents debris from entering the softener’s control valve, protecting internal components
  • Standard 5x48-inch length – Compatible with most commercial brine tanks for easy installation and replacement

How to Use

  1. Turn off your water softener system and unplug the unit to ensure safety.
  2. Drain the brine tank and remove any remaining salt or debris.
  3. Carefully remove the old brine well from the tank, noting its orientation.
  4. Insert the BW5048S slotted brine well vertically into the brine tank, ensuring the bottom strainer rests at the tank base.
  5. Secure the top cap in place and refill the tank with salt according to manufacturer recommendations.
  6. Reconnect and power on the system, then run a regeneration cycle to verify proper brine draw.
  7. Inspect periodically to ensure the brine well remains clean and free of damage.
