AQUAPHOR softeners are an advanced alternative to the classic whole-home water softeners. The solution is exceptionally efficient, with low salt consumption and small amount of water needed for regeneration.
AQUAPHOR S550 contains 15 L of chlorine resistant ion exchange resin. It is a popular solution for hard water treatment — both in cottages and in city apartments. It is an ultra compact system, so there's no need for a separate utility space. Moreover, it perfectly fits under the kitchen sink.
Salt savings up to 60%
Thanks to the unique tank design and extra-fine ion-exchange resin, salt efficiency is maximized.
2-in-1: water softening & iron removal
Removal of high concentration of Fe (up to 15 mg/L concentration in water) and hardness salts.
Exceptionally small water usage for regeneration
The innovative, patented Dual Core Valves of the AQUAPHOR softener assure long-term trouble-free performance whilst wasting minimal amount of water.
10-year warranty for the main parts
The high-strength thick wall made of homogeneous glass-filled composite will serve over 10 years, while classic columns typically serve less than 5 years.
Low maintenance
In addition to low salt consumption of the system, ion-exchange resin lasts 10 times longer that in typical water softeners.
Operates efficiently even at very low tap pressure
Fully recyclable body and tank
NSF certified
