What it does for your water
The AFWFilters Fleck 2510SXT 48,000-Grain Water Softener and Filter System is a softener and filter combo rated at 48,000 grains on a Fleck 2510SXT control valve.
Run at an efficient salt setting, its rating gives about 36,000 grains per regeneration rather than the full rating: enough for up to 4 people on 15 grains-per-gallon water regenerating weekly, or 2 on 25 grains per gallon. Size it to your own water.
A filter stage rides along with the softener here; the listing says what it reduces, and its cartridge or media has its own replacement schedule.
The Fleck 2510SXT head is one of the most widely serviced valves; seal kits, pistons, boards and meters that name it are in the valve parts lookup.
The listing also gives power corded-electric; model 2510SXT; material resin, glass, fiber; valve Fleck 2510SXT.
