BetterLife™ System 2 features a computerized controller to meter the water flow for optimal cost savings. The ion exchange portion of the system utilizes ProSoft™ Resin as the primary layer. These cation exchange units are designed to remove calcium and magnesium (hardness) and a host of other cations from the water stream. The ultraviolet design adds bacteriological safeguards to your water supply.

Includes:

  • ProSoft™ Premium cation exchange resin
  • 10 gpm stainless steel ultraviolet chamber
  • 30,000 µw sec/cm² UV dosage
  • Computer controlled and metered valve
  • Chlorastick™ pipe sanitizing kit
  • Corrosion free system

Warning and Disclaimer: Ultraviolet treatment, chlorinating, or any other form of sanitation of contaminated water, is never a 100% guaranteed for bacteriological free water, but are EPA approved methods of water sanitation which add greatly to protection against waterborne pathogens. Proper ultraviolet sterilization is an instantaneous process which destroys 99.97% of pathogens and leaves no UV residual in the water. Periodic monitoring of the water supply and of the downstream piping system sanitation is recommended to help guard against downstream contamination or accidental contaminated water bypass. Ultraviolet sterilization and/or chlorine, is not recommended and should not be used for cyst treatment.
