It uses food-grade ion-exchange resin in a durable NFS polyethylene tank with a glass-fiber outer shell and 3\/4\" brass connections to keep flow high while resisting wear. Because it operates mechanically, no power is required — ideal for boondocking, seasonal sites, or anywhere you want to protect plumbing, appliances and skin from hard-water effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow much hardness can it remove and how long does it last?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis softener is rated at 16,000 grains of capacity and can reduce water hardness to roughly 0–3 grains per gallon under typical conditions. Actual lifespan between regenerations depends on incoming hardness and water usage; VEVOR states up to about 2,461 gallons per regeneration at lower hardness levels, and resin life is expected around five years with proper care.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e16,000-grain resin capacity for longer service before regeneration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces hardness to approximately 0–3 gpg under typical use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRegenerate with about 52 oz (1,472 g) of salt when softening declines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEstimated 5-year resin service life with standard maintenance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill it affect water pressure or flow in my RV?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe unit uses 3\/4\" inlet and outlet fittings to preserve flow and minimize pressure loss compared with smaller-thread systems.
