Sterilizing agent for all Cation based water softeners (water softeners that use salt).
Water softeners are comprised of cationic on exchange resin beds, these offer an attractive growth medium for biological organisms, such as bacteria and algae. In some cases, these growths can build up in the resin bed and physically foul the resin, however the main concern is that these organisms will contaminate the softened water and enter into the vessels tanks and distribution system.
It is very important to use this product on a monthly basis, the amount of product required will depend on the resin bed size, for the Octo Compact water softener 1 x 125ml per month is recommended.
