40278 Water Softener -

Rust turns resin beads into slimy, dark green mush. Buy a liquid resin cleaner from Home Depot. Pour it into the brine well. Force a manual regeneration. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Q: Does the 40278 remove chlorine or lead? A: No. This is a water softener, not a filter. For chlorine taste or lead, you need a reverse osmosis (RO) system under the sink, or a whole home carbon filter before the 40278.
