The EC5-CAB water conditioning system goes beyond water softening to also filter, clarify, and polish your water, as well as reduce any ferrous iron it contains. A full menu of easy-to-use settings will allow you to customize the system to meet your family’s needs. This computer-controlled model is designed to ensure an uninterrupted supply of high-quality water for your home. It also calculates and uses the optimal amount of salt or potassium chloride and water at each regeneration based on household water usage. The EC5-CAB offers a smart, economical way to enjoy the best water possible and, like all RainSoft water treatment systems, it’s built to deliver a lifetime of reliable performance. Your RainSoft dealer can help you decide if the EC5-CAB is the best water softening solution for your home.

Untreated water flows into the resin tank, where hardness ions are retained in and on the special RainSoft resin.

Droplet

Carbon Bed Filtering

The newly softened water can be further polished and clarified when it passes through an optional carbon bed.
