Softening Resin
swtwater.com ProSoft™ Gold
ProSoft Gold — SWT found a great way to save you some money and still get the job done. ProSoft Gold is a 7% crosslinked softening resin that is designed for low or non-chlorinated waters. It is perfect for well water and non-turbulator applications. It has excellent exchange capability and every bag is pre-washed and rinsed so that you don't have to do it in the field.

APPLICATIONS:
Softening
ProSoft Gold is a standard crosslinked cation resin optimized for residential and commercial applications. This type of resin is easier to regenerate than the higher crosslinked resins. ProSoft Gold has marginal resistance to chlorine and other oxidants and is not ideal for high temperature and other high stress applications.
