How it works

Before water can enter your home, it must first pass through your Maytag® water treatment system.

Unconditioned water enters the mineral tank, which contains a proprietary blend of multiple filtering medias that act like a magnet, attracting undesirable contaminants to their surface and separating them from the water.

Then, the clean, treated water flows back up the riser tube to be distributed throughout your home.

TOP-OF-THE-LINE CLEANING TECHNOLOGY

The mid-plate distributor physically separates the media, allowing incoming water to be treated in the order that most thoroughly removes contaminants while also extending the life of the media.
Our patented self-cleaning nozzle design improves efficiency further by creating a unique lift-and-swirl motion to completely fluidize the media bed, resulting in increased softening and filtration capacity.

MORE FEATURES AND BENEFITS OF OUR SPECIALIZED DISTRIBUTOR

Significant reduction in required backwash times and flow rates compared to standard systems—water flow is evenly distributed throughout the tank, eliminating the “dead spaces” often found in standard tanks, where more water and pressure must be used to cleanse the media.
Most efficient softening regeneration, reducing annual consumption of salt.
Saves time. Saves salt. Saves water.

MAYTAG BRAND DEPENDABILITY

Finally, treated water from the brine tank – the mineral tank’s trusty sidekick – recharges the filtering media so your Maytag^® water treatment system can stay ready to treat your water 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY

The Maytag^® water treatment system saves money and conserves resources through a process called Upflow Proportional Regeneration – a fancy term for an innovative process that only regenerates the depleted portion of the media. And since your Maytag^® water treatment system is more efficient than other water treatment systems in regard to water and salt usage, it’s environmentally friendly too.
