How It Works

The Fleck Bayonet Top Basket fits snugly atop the mineral tank, acting as a barrier that keeps the mineral resin securely inside while allowing treated water to flow freely. Its bayonet-style connection ensures a tight seal with the tank’s top fitting, preventing media from escaping into the system and causing blockages or damage. By trapping sediment and supporting the resin bed, it helps maintain optimal softening performance and prevents premature component wear.

As water passes through the mineral tank, the basket filters out unwanted particles and holds the resin beads in place, ensuring consistent water quality and extending the life of your water softener system.

What to Expect

After installing the TDB1316-BS basket, you’ll immediately notice improved system stability with fewer clogs and less sediment buildup. Within the first few days, your water softener will operate more efficiently, delivering smooth water flow and consistent softening results. Over time, this basket reduces maintenance frequency by protecting internal components and minimizing media loss.

Long-term, it supports reliable system function by preventing common issues that degrade performance, helping you avoid costly repairs or premature replacements.
