What it does for your water
The Resin 48000 Mineral Tank is replacement cation resin.
Standard 8% crosslink resin is what most residential softeners ship with.
Match the old bed's volume and don't top the tank up to the neck; resin needs freeboard to expand during backwash.
Other listed details: model 48000.
The listing gives dimensions of 5 x 5 x 5 inches, a shipping weight of 1 lb and includes 2 resin tank bracket halves to create 1 complete supports ready to position around the existing resin tank setup in the box.
