This
special application unit contains
|
| a
media bed that has both anion and |
| cation
resins. The anion resin |
| removes
color caused by organic |
| compounds
found in some water |
| supplies.
Organic compounds known |
| as
tannins are decayed animal and |
| vegetable
matter which discolor the |
| water
and cause it to stain almost |
| everything
it comes into contact |
| with.
The cation resin allows it to |
| also
soften the water without making |
| it
necessary to add a second unit. |
| The
unit is regenerated like a |
| standard
water softener with |
| saturated
salt brine to release the |
| trapped
organic color compounds and |
| hardness
minerals. |
