Aquathin ASC25K/F Getting Started page 30

Your Patented Aquathin RO/DI "drinking water" systems
are designed to remove all of the aforementioned includ-
ing water softener salt.
Q: What is that brown fuzzy looking slimy junk in my
neighbor's water softener's salt tank...and why doesn't it
form in my Clip Cabinet?
A: That brown, fuzzy looking, slimy junk has a
name..."halophilic bacteria" meaning capable of thriving
in a salty environment. The ordinary garbage-can style
salt brine tanks of ordinary softeners are notorious for
bacterial "brine slime" formation in them. That cruddy,
mungy, brownish, fuzzy junk is created from contami-
nated rock or solar salt (not fully kiln dried), or exposed
to unsanitary conditions. The halophilic bacteria gets
sucked into the resin tank during regeneration, can breed
in the resin pores and grow downstream, causing foul
odors...not to mention the thought of bathing in that isn't
too nice. The Aquathin Sodialite Soft & Clean includes
the patented Aquathin Clip Cabinet with AquaShield
Antimicrobial vs. ordinary garbage can style brine
tanks. AquaShield Antimicrobial, integrated during the
molding process, keeps the Clip Cabinet's water and salt
clean and pristine.
Additional system review: the Clip Cabinet is produced
using the rotomold process = thicker walled and no
seams. Your Clip Cabinet contains a built in sediment
trapper to help prevent dirt and bacteria from contami-
nated salt being sucked into the control valve's screen and
injectors. Your Clip Cabinet is environmentally friendly
in that it contains recycled virgin polyethylene and UV
inhibitor. Ordinary garbage-can style or tank-in-cabinet
model is thin walled blow molded with a seam and
known for cracking. Your Soft & Clean system includes
a black brine draw tube with UV protection.
Theirs does not and will crack causing leaks and service
