๐ Product Overview
The LiquaGen 4.5โ x 10โ Cation Resin Filter Cartridge is a high-capacity water softening solution designed for whole-house use. Made with premium 10% cross-link strong acid cation exchange resin, this refillable cartridge effectively removes hardness minerals like calcium and magnesiumโthe main culprits behind scale buildup.
By exchanging these hardness ions with sodium (Naโบ) or hydrogen (Hโบ), this cartridge delivers softer water throughout your home, helping to protect plumbing, fixtures, and water-using appliances from limescale and mineral damage. Built for Big Blue 10โ housings, itโs perfect for households struggling with hard water.
