3.5: Calcite & Corosex Cartridges

Calcite media (Calcium Carbonate aka crushed white marble) slowly dissolves in acidic water as it passes through the media. This increases the pH and Alkalinity of the water; which helps prevent corrosion of pipes and fixtures.

Corosex media (Magnesium Oxide) dissolves in acidic water as it passes through the media. This increases the pH and Alkalinity of water; which helps prevent corrosion of pipes and fixtures.
To cover a wider range of acidic water, and to cater to varying flow rates, it is recommended to mix Calcite media and Corosex media.

Features:

  • Compact, easy to use Calcite and Corosex cartridges
  • Increase pH and Alkalinity of the water
  • Prevent corrosion of pipes and fixtures
  • Fits standard size and large diameter size housings
