Mineral tanks like this one are the body of a softener or filter, housing the resin, carbon, or specialty media that does the actual work of conditioning your water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA Foundation for Your System\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe mineral tank works in combination with a control valve that mounts on top and is filled with the appropriate media for the job. Depending on your water quality goals, that media might be cation-exchange resin for softening hard water, activated carbon for reducing chlorine and improving taste and odor, or a specialty filtration media targeting iron, sediment, or other contaminants. During the service run, water flows down through the media bed where the conditioning takes place, and the system periodically backwashes the bed, flowing water upward to lift, rinse, and resettle the media so it stays clean and effective.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlotrol mineral tank, 9\" x 48\" size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharcoal exterior finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHolds softening resin or filtration media\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard top-mount control valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuited to compact residential treatment systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt to handle normal operating pressures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 9\" x 48\" size is a popular compact format, well suited to smaller households or to point-of-entry and point-of-use filters where available space is limited. Despite the smaller footprint, tanks of this type are engineered to withstand normal residential system pressures over many years of service. To build a complete, working system around this tank, pair it with a compatible control valve sized for the tank, the correct riser tube and bottom distributor to evenly collect and distribute flow through the media, and the appropriate volume and type of media for your application; for softening, you'll also need a brine tank. During installation, load the media carefully, observe the tank's rated pressure and temperature limits at all times, and confirm that the valve, riser, and distributor are all matched to the 9\" tank opening for a proper, leak-free assembly. With its compact dimensions and robust construction, the 9 by 48 inch Flotrol tank is a practical foundation for space-conscious treatment systems, ready to serve as a softener, carbon filter, or specialty filter depending on the media you choose.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Global Aqua Technology","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45668813340725,"sku":"FLOTROL-0948-C","price":111.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/4950\/2261\/files\/flotrol-0948-c.jpg?v=1782534265","url":"https:\/\/watersoftenerplus.com\/sv-eu\/products\/flotrol-min-tank-9-x-48-charcoal","provider":"Water Softener Plus","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
