Regarding the ALFILTRA FCA 30 deacidification system and the calcite refill requirement: Over the course of use, the amount of calcite, which serves as the main medium for water deacidification, will gradually decrease. This is a normal process caused by the continuous neutralization of the acid in the water. Instead of a complete replacement, only regular replenishment of the calcite is required to maintain the system's effective function. This filling can easily be done by purchasing calcite in bags from us as accessories.

It is important to note that the frequency of refills depends on various factors, including the water quality and water usage in your home or business. We recommend checking calcite levels regularly and refilling as necessary to ensure continuous and efficient deacidification of your water.

The resin in this filter system is designed for a pH range of 5 to 9, meaning it should work even at a pH of 6, where the water is slightly acidic.

However, you should note that although the resin can work in this pH range, slightly acidic water (pH 6) is not ideal for use as drinking water. In the long term, acidic water can cause corrosion in pipes and affect the taste of the water.

If you plan to use the filtered water as drinking water, it is recommended to also install a deacidification system. Such a system can increase the pH of the water and make it more neutral, which is not only beneficial for iron filtration but also improves the quality of drinking water and protects your plumbing.
