Dual System Water Softener and Chemical Filter
The purpose of having these 2 tanks is to soften the water and remove chemicals via filter.

• Complete twin-tank water softener provides continuous soft water • Complete system comes with 5-year warranty on the valve and 10-year warranty on the tanks • With a twin-tank system featuring the new valve, customers benefit from soft water 24/7 • Free bypass comes with male-threaded yoke for easy installation
• The dual system also comes with the on-demand flow metre • The resin tanks also have a capacity of 1.5 cubic feet each and the max flow rate of this device is 12 GPM • The dual water softener is perfect for homes with big families or in areas where the level of hardness in water is very high
Sodium silicate is used as an alum coagulant and an iron deflocculant in water treatment plants in municipal water supplies. Sodium silicate binds to colloidal molecules, creating larger aggregates that sink to the bottom of the water column. The microscopic negatively charged particles suspended in water interact with sodium silicate. Their electrical double layer collapses due to the increase of ionic strength caused by the addition of sodium silicate (doubly negatively charged anion accompanied by two sodium cations) and they subsequently aggregate. What this means, is that your softener or iron filter does not recognize the molecules and it ‘masks‘ the silicate, allowing it to pass through undetected, creating staining even though your equipment is working properly.
The solution is a Silicate filtering system. It can be a stand-alone unit or combined with softening resin and carbon, providing filtering capabilities a standard water softener or iron filter cannot perform.
