Whole House Water Softener 32k & Filtration Combo 1 cuft 5600 SXT
Transform the water throughout your home with a complete whole house water softener and filtration combo system engineered to address two of the most common city-water concerns: hard water and disinfectant chemicals such as chlorine and chloramine.
Unlike single-tank mixed-media systems, this system uses two dedicated mineral tanks, allowing each filtration media to operate independently and perform the job it was designed for.
Tank 1: Catalytic Carbon Whole House Water Filter
The first tank contains premium catalytic carbon filtration media and is equipped with a dedicated Fleck 5800 Filter Control Valve.
Catalytic carbon is an enhanced form of activated carbon designed for improved treatment of challenging disinfectants commonly found in municipal water supplies.
Catalytic carbon helps reduce:
- Chlorine
- Chloramine
- Unpleasant tastes
- Unpleasant odors
- Certain organic contaminants
- Other compounds that can affect the taste and quality of household water
The Fleck 5800 filter valve automatically controls the filtration tank's backwash and rinse cycles, helping clean and reclassify the media bed for dependable long-term operation.
This means the catalytic carbon is not simply placed inside the softener tank—it receives its own dedicated filtration tank and control valve.
Tank 2: Whole House Water Softener
After filtration, water passes through the dedicated softening tank.
This tank contains high-capacity cation exchange water softening resin and is controlled by a Fleck 5800 Metered Softener Valve.
The ion-exchange resin removes the primary minerals responsible for hard water:
- Calcium
- Magnesium
Reducing hardness can help:
- Prevent scale buildup in pipes and fixtures
- Protect tank and tankless water heaters
- Reduce scale inside dishwashers and appliances
- Reduce spotting on glassware and fixtures
- Improve soap and detergent performance
- Leave skin and hair feeling softer
- Make household cleaning easier
- Extend the service life of plumbing and water-using equipment
Fleck 5800 Metered Softener Control
The softener uses a Fleck 5800 metered control valve, which monitors actual household water usage.
Instead of regenerating simply because a certain number of days have passed, the metered valve can regenerate according to water demand and programmed system capacity, helping provide efficient softener operation.
Dedicated Fleck 5800 Filter Control
The catalytic carbon system receives its own Fleck 5800 filter valve, allowing the carbon tank to perform the backwash and rinse cycles appropriate for filtration media.
Using separate control valves allows the carbon filter and water softener to operate as independent treatment stages, rather than forcing two different media types to share the same regeneration cycle.
Complete Whole House Treatment
The treatment process is simple:
City Water → Catalytic Carbon Filtration → Water Softening → Home
First, catalytic carbon improves water quality by reducing chlorine, chloramine, taste and odor concerns.
Next, the softener removes calcium and magnesium hardness.
The result is filtered AND softened water throughout your entire home.
Ideal for:
- Showers
- Bathrooms
- Kitchens
- Laundry
- Dishwashers
- Water heaters
- Plumbing fixtures
- Whole-house household water use
For homeowners who want more than a standard water softener, this dual tank system provides a comprehensive approach to city water treatment with premium media and proven Fleck 5800 control technology.
