Model Number: ph-utility-head
Control Valve: In/Out Utility head with 1-inch plumbing connection
Shipping Weight: 152 lbs
Maintenance: This whole house pH neutralizer system helps maintain effective pH correction with regular service; as a water filter for low-pH well water, the calcite bed raises pH by dissolving calcium carbonate and is most effective for water with pH levels between 6.0 and 6.8.
Media Care: Neutralizing media becomes depleted over time and must be periodically replenished; these neutralizing filters are also typically backwashed periodically as part of regular service, and replacement filter media may include a bag for easy refill.
The pH Neutralizer System from Aqua Science is built to treat acidic water by raising low pH to a more neutral level, helping protect plumbing, fixtures, and water-using appliances from corrosion without requiring a control box. Bringing water closer into balance helps reduce corrosion, staining, and potential leaching from plumbing while improving overall water quality for homeowners with low-pH well water, private well property owners, and anyone trying to avoid pipe damage and off-taste that acidic water can cause.
All systems come with AquaScience 8% Crosslink Resin for enhanced durability and performance.
This pH neutralizer system is designed for low pH water and to help bring pH levels into the EPA-recommended 6.5 to 8.5 range. Low pH is classified as a secondary drinking water contaminant concern, and acidic conditions may indicate acids or dissolved metals are present, including copper, lead, zinc, and other metals commonly associated with the metals found in acidic-water plumbing scenarios. For more severe acidity, some treatment setups use chemical feed pumps to inject alkaline solutions, and soda ash is typically used for very acidic water with pH below 4.5, while other pH neutralizers and acid neutralizing filters for well water systems offer configurable options for different levels of acidity. Raising pH helps raise the pH of acidic water toward a non corrosive equilibrium and reduces potential leaching from pipes and fixtures in typical plumbing systems under normal conditions. Raising pH can improve the home's water quality and reduce sour or metallic taste. It includes a 1" In/Out Utility head, 1 cu. ft. of Calcite media, 1 sleeve of gravel, plus a funnel and cap. If you need help to find replacement filters, choose the right tank size, or interpret results from a free well water test kit, please contact the seller. A customer review and buyer feedback, often compared alongside Amazon listings, can also help evaluate fit before purchase. As supplemental treatment context, Corosex neutralizes acid more aggressively than Calcite, can correct pH levels as low as 4.5, and can be used in combination with Calcite for stronger pH correction. pH neutralizers are also used in agricultural applications to optimize nutrient uptake.
This configurable system is available in 9" x 48", 10" x 54", and 12" x 52" tank sizes; note that proper clearance for loading media and future service should be planned during setup. Correcting low pH levels also helps prevent blue green staining on sinks and fixtures. Proper pH balance in swimming pools enhances sanitation and swimmer comfort.
