31,000 Grain Hybrid Water Softener System
The WHESFC4 is a hybrid water softener and whole home filtration system, removing hardness from your water and reducing chlorine taste and odor for better tasting water at every faucet. It flushes, cleans and drains itself automatically so there are no filters to change – ever. With a grain capacity of 31,000, the WHESFC4 is ideal for households of 1-5+ people.
Whirlpool water softeners are among the most salt-efficient units in the industry. The WHESFC4’s 6th Sense technology learns your water usage patterns and reduces waste by calculating the amount of salt and water your family needs. This means less salt to buy, carry, and remember.
