Tri-Plex - Dual Chamber Water Tanks

Dual Chamber Water Conditioners

Our popular dual media water conditioners utilize Vortech™ patented distributor technology to maximize media efficiency with two separate media chambers in one tank.

Tri-Plex All-In-One Water Conditioners

The Tri-Plex™ water conditioner combines four water treatment technologies into a single water conditioning system that maximizes the latest valve and tank technologies to minimize wasted water, salt usage, and floor space requirements.

Metered Valve For Greater Efficiency

• Solid-state microprocessor.
• Configuration in non-volatile memory.
• Capacitor back-up.
• Noryl™ construction.
• Digital LCD display.

• Designed for whole house water treatment.
• Reduces chlorine with carbon pretreatment to extend the life of the softening resin.
• High salt and water efficiency with up-flow brining.
• Reduces chlorine, tastes and odors.
• Reduces iron staining (additional equipment may be required based on iron levels and type).
• Low cost, single tank design with only one (1) control valve.
• Protect expensive water using appliances.
• Save on energy consumption.
• Space saving single tank design.

Think Green
In order to regain a softeners or filters ability to remove contaminants its control valve must be able to go into a backwash cycle to effectively clean the media before it can be regenerated. Traditional systems produce large amounts of waste water during the backwash process and consume a high volume of salt used to condition the water. Watts Vortech™ water softeners and filters reduce backwash water and frequency by 30% and reduce salt consumption, reducing the impact on the environment.

Why Vortech™
Vortech™ distribution systems utilize a more efficient distributor plate design to reduce backwash and improve system efficiency compared to traditional cone @ gravel systems. This unique design provides greater “lift” and “action” throughout the entire width of the mineral tank during a backwash cycle, whereas traditional cone and gravel systems channel up through the media causing areas of very limited movement. In addition, because Vortech™ does not utilize gravel, it costs less to ship due to its lighter weight.

• Cones (basket) have a limited surface area reducing flow capacity
• Gravel adds additional shipping costs
• Riser tube and basket is held only in place by the media making routine maintenance difficult when the valve is removed from the mineral tank
• Backwash water creates channels through the gravel concentrating flow through limited areas of the media
• Water channeling creates dead spots around the edge of the mineral tank reducing the effectiveness of the backwash cycle
• Areas within the media bed are not suitably rinsed and lose the capacity to remove the contaminants with every cycle
• Higher flow rates are required to effectively lift media
