Recently, they are gaining more and more popularity "Cabinet" softeners and iron removers of water WaterBoss and WaterMax (WaterBoss and WaterMax)... Their main difference from conventional systems is their compactness and versatility. Also, as a rule, such filters consist of one body (WaterBoss), which includes a brine tank, a main compartment with a reagent and a control unit. Some manufacturers implement double-housing solutions, such as WaterMax, by adding additional filter elements to their product. Regeneration in such systems occurs automatically, depending on the average daily water consumption. Scope of application: cottages, private houses, apartments, offices, mini-hotels, laundries, catering, etc.

In addition to compactness, ease of installation, ease of use, and automatic maintenance can be added to the attractiveness of cabinet filters.

Cabinet filter classification:

Household softener - removal of hardness salts. Ion exchangers are used as the main material - these are substances that remove calcium, magnesium, etc. ions from the incoming water and replace them with sodium ions. They are small in size, consist of one block, and are characterized by low productivity. As a rule, they are installed at the input and are used to protect household appliances from scale.
Iron removers are specialized systems for purifying incoming water from sulfur and iron compounds. Typically used to protect plumbing.
Refiners are complex systems for softening water and purifying it from chlorine, which do not require the use of strong chemical reagents. The water supply process continues even during the regeneration process. As a rule, they are used in urban water supply conditions.

In addition to these three main classifications of cabinet filters, there are also so-called universal systems, as well as systems that combine various variations of the filter capabilities of the listed groups.

The correct choice of cabinet filter and its competent installation will allow your device to serve without service repairs and additional costs throughout the entire service life declared by the manufacturer. Contact Waterboss engineers for advice - with us you will make the right choice.

The WaterBoss 700 system, despite its rather small size, can easily and quickly purify water for an entire country house or cottage. The WaterBoss 700 filter works on the ion exchange principle. To prevent oxidation of iron on the ion exchange resin that the filter works with, the WaterBoss 700 is equipped with a special valve that prevents air from entering the resin tank.

In the WaterBoss 700 system, the ion exchange resin beads are half the diameter of the resin beads used in standard softeners. This makes it possible to increase the area of contact of water with the resin and the number of active groups available for the ion exchange reaction. As a result, the rate of exchange and the dynamic exchange capacity of the resin are increased.

The service life of the system is up to 10 years.
Saving salt in water purification is achieved due to the regeneration of water from the very bottom to the top and allows you to completely restore the ion-exchange resin.
There are no stagnation zones in the filter. This helps to utilize absolutely the full amount of resin, which improves the performance of the WaterBoss 700.
Reliable stainless steel piping and drain hose included.
Reliable and durable operation over the entire pressure range from 1.5 to 7 atm.
The mesh, which is located in the filter, does not allow various contaminants to get to the ion exchange resin.
Compact dimensions.

The WaterBoss 700 filter has a unique organization of the regeneration work. The filter contains a controller that keeps an accurate record of the consumed water by day, after which it analyzes the collected data and conducts a comparative analysis based on the data of the current day. Thus, the built-in computer achieves the maximum and efficient operation of the filter media.

In addition to compactness, ease of installation, ease of use, and automatic maintenance can be added to the attractiveness of cabinet filters.

Recently, column-type systems (FRP), using multicomponent filtering mixtures for water softening, have been actively promoted on the water treatment equipment market. The most famous brands in St. Petersburg are Ekotar and its varieties, Ecosoft Mix, AC + MC, Crystal-Right, Unique, Jyrbi-Mix, FiltroSmart and others. These mixtures are positioned as a kind of "know-how", although it is generally known that they were developed in the United States in the late 50s of the last century and were replaced by more high-tech products, such as water filters for the WaterBoss line.

Filtering mixtures attract an ordinary buyer, first of all, by their relatively low cost, which is very important in the context of the economic crisis. The slogan for a sale is often the phrase “we care about your money”. However, as you know, a stingy person pays twice, and in the case of filtering mixtures, this proverb is fully justified. In fact, it turns out that the use of systems based on filter mixtures has many "pitfalls" in spending money (see table).

Judge for yourself. Speaking about the low cost of equipment based on filter mixtures, sellers do not inform you about how long this equipment will last and, especially, they avoid talking about the service life of mixed fillings and how soon it will be required from the “lucky owner” another big investment. It turns out that the service life of such mixtures is a maximum of 18 months, that is, a little over one year. This, it seems, is not a secret, but they are modestly silent about it. That is, almost every year you will have to pay from 7,500 to 18,500 rubles only for the filtering mixture (see table).

But the “concern” about the client's money does not end there. The client cannot change the mixture on his own, even if his hands are "golden", since for replacement it is necessary to have special equipment. And this means that you will pay about 5,000 rubles more to the service personnel, if you live in the area of 100 km. from the city, if further - you will have to pay more (see table).

So what is it? Simple negligence of trade employees? Or maybe they don't know about it? On the contrary, they all know perfectly well! To tie a client to your own, and only to your own, company and receive annually from 10 to 20 thousand rubles for equipment maintenance is not a bad thing (depending on who, of course).

And that's not all. For the regeneration of mixed loads, table salt is used. We have made an approximate calculation of the amount of salt used for one regeneration with a column-type system and a WaterBoss 900 filter (the calculation is correct for a family of 4 people, with a water consumption of 300 liters per day per person and water hardness of 7 meq / l). It turned out that "WaterBoss 900" consumes 3 kg for one regeneration. salt is less than the FRP 1054 system, which is close to it in terms of resin capacity. That is, in one month the WaterBoss 900 filter will save you one bag of salt, and in a year, respectively, 12. At today's cost of salt for water softeners, for two years savings from the use of "WaterBoss 900" is about 15,000 rubles.

With relatively equal volumes of working load, column-type systems have very inconvenient dimensions (see table). The height of even the smallest column (FRP 1035) is more than 1 meter, and larger ones (FRP 1054, FRP 1354) generally reach 1.5 meters in height. In addition, the brine tank takes up considerable space. All these factors make it very difficult to place these systems in conditions of a lack of free space.

The next important aspect, which is often not mentioned at all, is the amount of water discharged by the column systems during regeneration. With the same resin capacity, the column-type system drains 4 times more water than the WaterBoss 900 filter. As a result, the use of mixed loading systems becomes impossible for wells where water is always scarce. Also, this leads to an increased load on the autonomous sewage system, increases the frequency of pumping water from the septic tank, and the costs for this are not taken into account anywhere, and, most importantly, sellers do not warn about this. You can, of course, pour such an amount of water into a plot or into a ditch, but then the plot will turn into a swamp within a year.

So what do we end up with? At a lower initial cost, filters based on mixed sorbents already in 2 years, due to high maintenance costs, “catch up” at the price of filters of the WaterBoss line. After 2 years, the owner of the "WaterBoss" filter annually spends 2 - 3 times less money.

Below is a table comparing both the technical and economic aspects of the use of filters based on filter resins and high-tech filters of the "WaterBoss" brand. The data in the table speaks for themselves. I would like to note that WaterBoss filters are manufactured in the USA, and Americans are famous for their ability to count money.

For a family of 4 people, with a water consumption of 300 liters per person per day (SanPiN standard) and a hardness of 7 mg-eq / l.

The question is as follows - there is WaterBoss700 on the well, and why it does not clean up the iron from the well is the second question.
After the waterbos, the water is already softened, but over time, the water from it begins to come with iron residues (smell, traces on the plumbing, etc.) - not the same as from the well, but it also settles in the tank 🙁

The charcoal filter after WB helps, but it dies quickly, but it costs a lot.

Are there any filters that can handle a small amount of iron?

I found an analysis that once left the WB

strong> WaterBoss - filters for water softening and deferrization.

To solve problems with water hardness and excess iron, we offer you the WATERBOSS water treatment system - a compact unit that removes hardness salts, dissolved iron, manganese and undissolved impurities from water. WATERBOSS is the most efficient water treatment system on the market:

- reduces the content of iron and manganese;

GREAT EFFICIENCY

The patented PROSERIES water distribution system combines the SUPERSAVER ion exchange resin and the POWER CLEAN filter into one whole, providing the superiority of the system in all main indicators:

- fine-grained SUPERSAVER resin softens water with an initial hardness of up to 24 mg-eq / l (3.5 times more than the maximum permissible concentration according to the standards).

- reduces the content of dissolved iron by 70% more efficiently than other systems (from 10 to 0.3 mg / l)

- the POWER CLEAN filter filters out dirt and sediment with a particle size of up to 20 microns.

- self-cleaning with every regeneration. uses 80% less water for regeneration and 50% less salt than comparable systems.

The three-button touch control system and microprocessor make the system easy and convenient to operate. Once installed and configured, the system only requires periodic filling with salt. In the event of an emergency power outage, the microprocessor retains the set parameters for 16 hours.

DISTINCTIVE FEATURES OF THE WATERBOSS SYSTEM:

- a displacement valve to select the water hardness according to your desire;

- selection of the regeneration mode at a given time or as required;

- safety valve for adjusting the water level in the brine tank;

The Aquaphor company produces a wide range of equipment for effective water purification. These systems include Vateboss filters: Waterboss 400, Waterboss 700, Waterboss 900. They differ in water consumption and regeneration time, salt consumption for washing, operating capacity, maximum hardness, dimensions.

For correct and reliable operation throughout the entire service life of the Waterboss system, which is about 10 years, competent installation is required. Below is a diagram for connecting such a system. The Waterboss installation itself is a filter for softening and deferrizing water (softens water, reduces the content of iron and manganese, filters out the sediment). The patented ProSeries water distribution system, combining Supersaver ion exchange resin and Power Clean filter, gives WATERBOSS superiority in all key areas over comparable equipment. Easier handling and easier maintenance are just some of the benefits of such a system.

But for the normal operation of the water purification system, the installation of additional main purification filters will be required.

1. BB 10 "pre-filter, and 3. BB 10" carbon block. The first is necessary for mechanical cleaning (removal of insoluble impurities and sediments). A replaceable cartridge made of thread or expanded polypropylene 5 microns is installed in this case. It must be changed every 3-6 months. To do this, close the valve in front of the pre-filter and after filter 3. The pressure in the clean water supply decreases. The flask is unscrewed and the filter element is replaced. Filter number 3 or carbon post-filter, which is necessary for fine cleaning (from color, unpleasant odor, heavy metal ions, organic compounds).

Observing the presented connection technology, you will be provided with high-quality drinking water. Remember to connect the drain to the Waterboss system. It is necessary for draining water during service (for example, when regenerating a filter) and repair.

On the website of our brand store in the cities of Kostroma and Yaroslavl, the entire existing series of water purification systems WaterBoss 400, WaterBoss 700, WaterBoss 900 is presented with current prices for the set. It is also possible to order the components separately.

The multipurpose softener Aquaphor Waterboss 900 cleans domestic water from hardness salts, dissolved iron and mechanical impurities. The compact housing allows you to install a water treatment system in a confined space, for example, in an apartment or a small utility room in a private house.

The patented ProSeries Water Distribution System, combining Supersaver ion exchange resin and Power Clean mechanical filter, provides WATERBOSS superiority in all key areas.

• Fine-grained ion-exchange resin Supersaver softens water with an initial hardness of up to 24 mg-eq / l (3.5 times more than the maximum permissible concentration)

• Iron remover reduces the content of dissolved iron in water by 70% more effectively than other systems (from 10 to 0.3 mg / l)

• Power Clean filter filters dirt and sediment down to 20 microns. The filter is automatically cleaned with every regeneration.

• A softener regeneration cycle requires 80% less water and 50% less salt than comparable systems.

• Three-button touch control system and built-in microprocessor make system maintenance simple and convenient.Once installed and configured, the system only requires periodic filling with salt. In the event of an emergency power outage, the microprocessor retains the set parameters for 16 hours.

• Mixing valve for choosing the water hardness according to your desire;

• Selection of the regeneration mode at a given time or as required;

• Safety valve for adjusting the water level in the brine tank,

• Compactness and ease of connection.

If the water you use is hard, if it contains too much iron, this can lead to a number of problems. Brown sediment and film on the surface of boiled water, tasteless tea, red spots on the bathroom and sink, high consumption of soap and washing powder. All this is already familiar to you ?!

You can, if you wish, come to terms with the bad taste of tea and poorly soaping soap, you can descale kettles and pots, and filter boiled water through cheesecloth. But what if hard water enters the heating system of a country cottage, into the hot water supply system, feeds boilers and boilers? It is theoretically possible to “wash” a pipe that is overgrown with scale from the inside, but it is easier to replace. The resource of heating elements, boilers and sanitary ware decreases in proportion to the increase in water hardness. Therefore, sooner or later, those who are unlucky with water are faced with a choice: either to become a specialist in the repair of water heating and plumbing equipment, or to buy a water softener.

If you need to disassemble a water heating tank, in which the bottom of the heating element is fixed with a large hex nut, as in the photo below, you can do everything quickly.

First of all, disconnect the boiler from the electricity and water supply. Remember to shut off the cold water supply before unscrewing the flexible hoses. After disconnecting, you need to drain the water from the water heating tank, which can be easily done according to this video instruction:

When the water is drained, you need to disassemble the bottom cover of the water heater case, which is usually attached to 2 self-tapping screws. Under the cover you will find this large nut and the thermostat, which must also be removed by disconnecting the appropriate terminals. Now that you have free access to the nut, take a gas wrench # 2 or a hub wrench for 55, both can be seen in the photo:

To unscrew the heating element of the water heater for self-repair, you need to counterclockwise. To make it easier to completely disassemble the storage boiler with your own hands, remove it from the wall and turn it upside down. When the nut is unscrewed, carefully remove the heating element by shaking it slightly from side to side.

Since after draining the water from the tank, a small part of it may remain inside, it is recommended to place a bucket under the boiler during disassembly so that the residues drip into it and not onto the floor. And one more tip - if scale interferes with the removal of the heating element, use a solid non-metallic object to try a little to clean the hole and the heating element itself.

If you have a newer water heater, its design will be different. In this case, the heating element can be removed by unscrewing the clamping bar. The peculiarity of disassembling the case of such a model is that in no case should the boiler be disassembled by turning it upside down, as the "would-be master" shows in this video:

You can see for yourself that after disassembly, the heating element fell into the container, which is covered with enamel so that the tank does not rust from the inside.Of course, when metal hits metal, the heating element and the inner coating of the water heater can be damaged, which cannot be repaired on your own.

Based on this, in order to disassemble a storage water heater with an oval flange, it is necessary to do everything without removing the boiler. The assembly of the product is carried out in the reverse order.

A fairly popular design, which is found in heaters of the Termeks, Ariston, Polaris and Goreniye brands, is considered to be the fastening of the heating element flange with bolts in a circle. These bolts can be 4, 5 or 6, depending on the model.

In order to disassemble an electric boiler of this type, it is necessary, as in previous cases, to disconnect the power from the mains and drain the water. After that, it is better to unscrew the non-return valve, which may interfere. One of the frequent difficulties that arise when completely disassembling a water heater with your own hands can be the search for screws that fix the plastic cover. If you cannot find the attachment points, tear off the stickers found on this cover. Sometimes manufacturers hide the caps of self-tapping screws under the "nameplate".

When you dismantle the thermostat and all interfering wires, you can start loosening the bolts on the water heater. It is best to unscrew them with a socket wrench of the appropriate size.

By the way, Ariston in some of his storage boilers of this design does not use bolts, but rather nuts that are screwed onto studs, as shown in the photo above.

In more expensive models of water heaters, when completely disassembled, you can see a bunch of wires and 2 heating elements installed next to each other. You can disassemble such a device by analogy with the previous instructions, however, we recommend that you take a picture of the correct connection of all wires before disconnecting them, so that later you do not get confused and quickly assemble the tank.

A device with a dry heater can be disassembled in exactly the same way, so you shouldn't have any questions about how to proceed.

That's all that I wanted to tell you about how to disassemble a water heater Termeks, Ariston or Polaris. We hope that the disassembly procedure was clear to you. If you have any questions, ask them in our group in contact or right here in the comments!

Water filters Aquaphor Waterboss 400, 700, 900 remove harmful impurities using ion exchange. This technology consists of the following stages:

Saturation of special filling (granular resins) with sodium compounds.
Passing hard water through such a filler. During this procedure, it is cleansed of salts.
Backwash to remove accumulated debris.
Re-saturation of the resins with a solution of sodium salts.

If these operations are performed in a timely manner, reliable protection and cleaning of the boiler and boiler from scale is ensured, and the service life of the filler is extended. In order not to perform them manually, modern technology is equipped with specialized automation. The equipment is connected to the water supply, sewerage, power supply 220 V. The room maintains operating modes of humidity and temperature.

Aquaphor Waterboss filters and systems consist of the following parts:

Main tank (two sections). In addition to the ion-exchange resin, a layer of sand is poured into it to retain mechanical impurities.
Regeneration solution tank with silent valves and nominal liquid level control.
Controller - an electronic program unit that controls the operation of equipment in automatic mode.
Connecting tubes, sensors, other auxiliary units and parts.

The lid slides for access to the interior, inspection, filling of regenerating sodium salts. A flexible line for connection to the drainage system has been added to the standard package.

Electromagnetic filter-softener of water "AquaShield" (price from 12 500 rubles)

Water softening system "Ecowater ESM 15" (price from 41,000 rubles)

The following table shows the technical characteristics of the current model range of Aquaphor Waterboss 400, 700 and 900 water filters:Aquaphor Waterboss Filter Series"Compensated hardness" of water (maximum value) in meq / literAllowable content of manganese ions in mg per literMinimum pH value at which the nominal efficiency of the ion exchange unit is guaranteedMaximum concentration of ferrous / ferric iron, mg / lChlorine content (mg per liter), no moreNominal / maximum amount of processed liquid per hour (cubic meters)Head drop at a flow of 50 liters / min (atm.)Decrease in pressure at maximum performance (atm.)Normal temperature range (liquid and ambient air), ° CRegenerating salt consumption in kg / process time (min)Salt consumption in economy / normal regeneration modeAllowable pressure range in the water supply system, atm.Minimum water consumption for flushing, liters per minuteDrainage system throughput (maximum), cubic meters / hourThe total time of flushing and regeneration in different modes, min.Stock of sodium salts (in granules / tablets), kgDimensions (Width x Depth x Height), mmIt should be noted that the term "compensated hardness" by the manufacturer Aquaphor denotes the total indicator, taking into account the concentration of impurities of manganese, iron, calcium. Instead of 220 V, if necessary, you can use a direct current source of 0.5 A with a voltage of 12 V. This solution is useful to increase the autonomy of the system, when connected to a standby generator (battery) in case of failure of the main networks.The manufacturer emphasizes that the Aquaphor Waterboss 400 and 700 water softener filter is not able to purify water from organic forms of iron. Moreover, such impurities must be removed in advance so as not to worsen the functional state of the filling. If there are a lot of mechanical impurities in the initial liquid, it is better to detain them with a main filter, settling. In any case, a professional analysis in a certified laboratory will come in handy. He will help clarify the requirements for the water treatment system.
