How does the pse-1800-p work

The Pelican Water Technologies PSE1800 system operates by conditioning water using a NaturSoft media that prevents scale buildup. It has a rated flow of 8–10 gallons per minute and a tank capacity of 9.1 gallons. The system requires water with specific conditions: free of hydrogen sulfide, hydrocarbons, oils, lubricants, and dissolved copper, and with less than 1 mg/L of phosphates. These substances can interfere with the media's catalytic surface and reduce effectiveness. The system is installed after well equipment and includes a sediment pre-filter. It requires a minimum working pressure of 25 PSI and operates between 36°F and 120°F.
