What it does for your water
The Provizio Supply CR10-50-BOX 0.50 cu ft Fine-Mesh Softener Resin is replacement cation resin in a 0.50 cu ft quantity.
A cubic foot of standard softener resin is rated about 32,000 grains at full salt and about 24,000 at an efficient setting, so 0.50 cu ft is about 16,000 grains at full salt, or 12,000 at an efficient setting.
Fine-mesh resin has smaller beads with more surface, which helps with clear-water iron; it needs a valve and screen that hold back the smaller beads.
Buy the volume your tank was built for. The empty space above the resin is there on purpose: the bed needs room to lift during backwash.
The listing also gives model CR10-50-BOX; resin 0.50 cu ft.
The listing gives dimensions of 16 x 11 x 9 inches, a shipping weight of 27 lb and cr10 fine mesh resin in the box.
