Now one of the other big differences between
Fleck water softener and a SoftPro water softener is that SoftPro water softeners are built as a complete system through the same manufacturer.

which was founded by former employees of WPA a water quality association.
SoftPro PURA Optimus
Fleck 5600SXT cannot get that rating.

So this system is 3rd party rated folks which is very expensive for the manufacturer to get done.
The reason you can't get that rating because the manufacturer Fleck Pantera corporation does not build water softeners is built out a couple of components only from another party. So there you go on that.
Fleck 5600SXT cannot get that rating.
Our 3/4" SoftPro valve which is the same as the 5600SXT which are 3/4 inch as well.
If you want to go with a higher flow softener you can go with the SoftPro Elite Basic.
The SoftPro Elite Basic is a 1" inch ported all the way through the valve so you do get higher flow rate with this system.
It's also high-efficiency just like to Optimus,it has the same savings and everything else but it has a better warranty.

It has a 10-year warranty on the control valve here with the same lifetime.
The resin is a 10 percent cross leg resin versus the SoftPro Optimus and Fleck 5600SXT are 8 percent.
The 10 percent it is more durable against chlorine which is enemy #1 to resin when it breaks it down.
So if I have a 10 percent resin you're guaranteed for it that last longer
As it will give you better performance over the years.
The other thing that the Elite Basic has besides up low the upgraded resin and better warranty,It has a neoprene washable tank jacket that actually gives you protection on the tank.
It gives them a sleek look as well because it has a 3 percent emergency regeneration reserve.
