The continuous water cycle . . .
Nature intended us to have high quality water. This is why we have the
continuous water
cycle,
whereby water from our oceans, rivers, lakes and streams falls to the ground as
rain or snow and becomes filtered as it seeps through the earth's surface. As the water
works its way through the ground, however, it picks up minerals by dissolving limestone,
causing water hardness. Water may also come into contact with iron, manganese,
Arsenic and other contaminants, which cause additional water treatment problems.
The chart below lists typical whole house water quality problems and indicates which
equipment effectively corrects any problems you may have in your home.

Watts® water softeners
"Hard" water is not considered unhealthy; however,
hard water problems end up costing you money
through increased soap usage, reliance on water
softening products and shorter life for appliances due
to scale build-up in pipes and other factors.
To correct water hardness, Watts offers a wide range
of water conditioning systems, designed to improve
water quality throughout your entire household.
Enjoy these many benefits Watts
®
water softeners provide
• Spot-free glassware and dishes.
• No mineral deposits on bathtubs and shower stalls.
• Brighter, softer laundry.
• Less reliance on water softening products.
• Dramatic reduction in soap usage.
• Manageable hair because shampoo works better.
• Pipes remain free of calcium scale build-up.
• Extended life of appliances and reduced energy
costs because scale is virtually eliminated.
• Spot-free car wash (if softened water is used).
Metered valve for
greater efficiency
Our control valve is
metered for greater
efficiency and reduced
salt usage, because
regeneration of the
softener resin is based
on water consumption.
Push button settings
provide ease-of-use
.
Two equipment types
Watts water softeners are available in two
configurations, including:
Single tank
Single tank systems include one tank for the
softening resin, a brine tank for salt, used to
regenerate the softening resin and our metered
control valve.
Dual tank
Dual tank systems come with an additional tank
with activated carbon for pre-treatment, which
removes chlorine, tastes and odors in municipal
water applications and extend the life of the
softening resin.
Model selection is typically based on water hardneess,
water usage, water source and other factors.

Whole house filters for sediment
reduction with high efficiency
Micro-Z™ filter media.
Watts filtration systems for sediment use our high
performance Micro-Z filter media to provide increased loading
capability and higher service flow rates. Micro-Z's unique
Zeolite structure offers increased porosity to outperform
conventional sand filters by reducing water consumption.
The need to backwash is dramatically reduced!
Features & benefits
• Uses Micro-Z™ for increased solids loading.
• Unique structure allows for higher flow rates.
• Reduces water consumption because the need to
backwash is dramatically reduced.
• Reliable equipment, designed for long-term service.

Watts® whole house filters for iron
and manganese reduction
Iron is one of the most common elements found in nature,
and most ground waters contain a measurable amount of
iron. Iron stains bathtubs, toilets, sinks, driveways and it
will even stain the side of your house in sufficient
concentrations. Watts offers two media types to remove
iron in point-of-entry applications.
Two media types
FILOX™
A non-chemical oxidizing media to reduce Iron.
Greensand-Plus™
An enhanced version of the traditional medium to
remove iron from water.
Filox™ system advantages
• Highest flow rate of any iron removal media.
• No oxidizing chemicals needed for regeneration.
• High efficiency with 80% manganese dioxide for enhanced
performance and capacity.
• Effective, from 5.0 to 9.0 pH.
• System is easy to program, with 10 pre-programmed
regeneration cycles to optimize water treatment.
Greensand-Plus™ system advantage
• Lower backwash requirements.
• Known saturation capacity.
• Higher temperatures and differential pressures than
traditional Manganese Greensand.
• Greensand-Plus is also used for radium reduction.
• User friendly, low maintenance electronic time clock valve.
Note:
The use of chemicals and oxidizers, such as chlorine,
potassium permanganate and oxygen may be required
for both systems to provide the optimal treatment for
Iron, Hydrogen Sulfide and Manganese.

whereby two components are combined
to produce a unique water treatment
media, which outperforms conventional
Arsenic reduction materials.
Media G2R

• Adsorbs both Arsenic III
and IV.
• NSF standard 61 certified.
• Performs over a wide
range of pH, up to 8.
• Long life expectancy
to reduce costs.
• Engineered for
residential applications.
• Proven results!
