The AVENEW water softener is designed to fit the smallest of spaces and be easily installed in any room of the house. It consists of a single body, which includes the resin container and the salt container. Made from top quality materials it features a clean but also refined design. Specific for removing hardness (calcium and magnesium), by means of selected Cullex strong cation exchange resins in sodium cycle and suitable for contact with water for food use, normally regenerated with sea salt. The time-operated salt container filling device has a brine valve with safety float and overflow fitting, for connecting to the drain, to prevent any possible spilling of water from the salt container. The command system with motorized piston consists of a valve in anti-corrosion material, controlled by a high tech electronic control unit, that allows volumetric regeneration according to actual water consumption. The display has intuitive icons that indicate: salt level, regeneration data, and other information about the water softener's operation. Through the countercurrent regeneration process, it saves considerably on water, salt and power consumption. The control valve has a bypass for excluding the water softening system from the water mains. With the bypass it is possible to use hard water when required, without wasting the availability of softened water, thereby saving on salt consumption. The control valve has a hardness mixing valve. With this valve it is possible to adjust the desired residual hardness for the service. All models are equipped with a system for automatic disinfection of the resins at each regeneration.
