It is working great, cranking out consistent soft water. I had a couple questions that were sent via their chat option and quickly answered. I ordered in the morning prior to their cutoff time and it was shipped same day. The only very slight negative was the UPS damaging the media tank box, but the tank was packaged well. There was no damage to the tank. Everything was included as described. I already had food grade silicone on hand to lubricate the O rings in the piping yoke, so the only additional item I needed to purchase, as noted, was the brine drain line. That was under $10 at Home Depot, including a couple clamps. Installation will vary based on your situation, but all the parts of the softener fit up easily. I had an existing installation so I plumbed into my existing lines. Love it. Would definitely buy another. The Fleck control head is a high quality unit. I have another that operates an iron filter that has worked flawlessly for the past 8 years, so I definitely wanted to replace my current outdated softener with a Fleck-based unit. Review: The Fleck 5600 SXT is prefect for our needs! - I installed it myself, I am a DIY person but you can have installed by a pluming co. In my opinion it was a fairly easy step by step installation, the written instructions was good and there is you tube (internet) also to simplify it, specially for the step by step programming. The reason I decided to purchase this particular model, was for the metered on-demand function this had drawn my interest, this allows you to set your grain setting and when it reaches it to start the water softening process, it will start on the next programed day and time set by you. This means the operation will save you water, salt and will go on the same day/time that you programed it, although it is very quiet when running. I have communal well water usage, so a good water softener is top priority, I purchased the test kit and test my water weekly before the Fleck Water softener starts up it's cycle and has kept it drinkable and toxic free. I have waited for about three months of operating this water softener before giving a review, to make sure that it operates as advertised, so far I am very pleased with it's operation and functionality. ## Features - High Capacity Water Softener System: Fleck 5600 SXT whole house water softener with 48,000 grain capacity and 1.5 cubic ft softener resin - Efficient On-Demand Metered Operation: Digital metered water softener only backwashes as needed, resulting in efficient salt and water consumption - Ion Exchange Technology: Removes calcium and magnesium through ion exchange process to eliminate hard water scale buildup and extend the life of plumbing and appliances - Complete System: Fleck 5600 SXT control valve, 10x54 mineral tank, 1.5 cu ft High Capacity Resin, 14x36" brine tank with safety float, 1" plastic bypass ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00MYEV6VC | | Best Sellers Rank | #923,604 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #821 in Water Softeners | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (106) | | Date First Available | August 22, 2014 | | Included Components | Fleck 5600SXT Metered Control Valve, 10 x 54 Black USA Mineral Tank, 1.5 cubic foot resin, Black Brine Tank with Safety Float, 1 inch Noryl Plastic Bypass | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Weight | 0.01 ounces | | Item model number | Fleck 5600 SXT | | Manufacturer | Pentair | | Maximum Pressure | 100 psi | | Part Number | Fleck 5600 SXT | | Product Dimensions | 10 x 10 x 54 inches | | Voltage | 24 volts | ## Images ![Fleck 5600 SXT Metered On-demand 48,000 Grain Water Softener - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71JGc1pLE7L.jpg) ![Fleck 5600 SXT Metered On-demand 48,000 Grain Water Softener - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31zuPwHGPFL.jpg) ![Fleck 5600 SXT Metered On-demand 48,000 Grain Water Softener - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61bSQSGYFzL.jpg) ![Fleck 5600 SXT Metered On-demand 48,000 Grain Water Softener - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41qI3Xnb27L.jpg) ![Fleck 5600 SXT Metered On-demand 48,000 Grain Water Softener - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41XV9WezsGL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What is the maximum hardness removal on this unit ?** A: Not sure the amount, but the last one I installed was off the scale & it seems to be doing good **Q: What is the warranty on this product?** A: I think the parts are 1 year and the tank is 5, the manufacture has it in specs. **Q: Is this all original Fleck components and tank or mixed? There are so many of these models on Amazon that it is very confusing.** A: It is all Fleck components. The folks at Aplus Water **Q: How many amps does the unit draw? I want to run it on the same circuit as my dishwasher.** A: Not much, it has an on board backup batter, the plug dc converter says 15w input, 400 milli amp output.

Hard water spots happen instantly and build up happens almost as quickly. I've always used softeners from the big box stores, but never really was satisfied with performance. I finally bit the bullet and purchased this unit with the Fleck head and it absolutely exceeds my expectations. Install was super simple, albeit my house was already plumbed for a softener. Our water has never been better. I would buy another one in a heartbeat. We're going on 7 months with this and I could not be happier. Thanks for an awesome unit A-Plus Water! ## Frequently Bought Together - USA Fleck 5600 SXT Metered On-demand 48,000 Grain Water Softener 1" Bypass USA Tanks - Fleck 5600 SXT Air Injection Iron Eater Filter.
