WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 8%, 10% AND FINE-MESH RESIN?

Choose 8% resin for dependable everyday softening, 10% resin for added durability in demanding or chlorinated water, and fine-mesh resin for better water softening in well / iron heavy homes.

WHICH RESIN IS BEST FOR MOST RESIDENTIAL WATER SOFTENERS?

8% cross-linked resin is a the industry standard proven choice for everyday residential softening. It provides a dependable balance of ion-exchange performance, bead strength and regeneration efficiency.

WHEN SHOULD I CONSIDER 10% CROSS-LINKED RESIN?

A 10% cross-link resin is ideal for chlorinated city water, offering greater durability that may extend media life, allow longer intervals between regenerations, reduce salt use, and deliver long-term savings.

DOES 10% RESIN PRODUCE SOFTER WATER THAN 8% RESIN?

Not automatically. Softening performance also depends on system size, resin volume, water hardness, flow rate, salt dosage and regeneration settings. Both 8% & 10% resin can provide effective hardness reduction when properly selected and configured.

Why should I avoid resin with less than 8% cross-linking?

Lower cross-link resin has a weaker bead structure that may break down faster, especially in chlorinated city water, resulting in reduced performance and more frequent replacement. Our iFilters resin delivers greater durability and is NSF certified.
