The Whole House pH Correction System uses calcite and Corosex media to neutralize and boost the pH of acidic water conditions. Installed on the water main of the home, this system automatically backwashes to keep the pH correction media fresh and functioning effectively. The calcite and Corosex media is sacrificial and will eventually need to be replaced. Depending on the incoming water pH and the total water-use, media is usually topped up after 3 - 5 years.
