Water Softeners for City & Rural Water

Soft Water and Chlorine Reduction in One Compact System

Unlike well water, city and many rural water systems are disinfected with chlorine. While chlorine helps make water safe to drink, it can also leave behind unpleasant tastes and odors, dry out skin and hair, fade laundry, and shorten the life of plumbing fixtures and water-using appliances.

Our RC (Resin + Carbon) water softeners are specifically designed for treated water supplies by combining a premium water softener with activated carbon in a single tank. This innovative split-tank design softens your water while reducing chlorine, unpleasant tastes, and odors—all without requiring two separate systems.

Every RC system features our innovative split-tank Resin + Carbon design, providing soft water and chlorine reduction in one compact system. As you move up through the lineup, you'll receive more advanced control technology and longer warranty coverage while enjoying the same exceptional water quality.

Each step up adds not only a longer warranty, but also more advanced technology, greater operating efficiency, and increased long-term value—giving you the confidence that your investment is built to last.

Why Our RC Systems Are Different

Unlike traditional mixed-media systems, our RC water softeners use an innovative split-tank design that keeps the premium softening resin and activated carbon separated by an internal plate. This allows each media to perform its specific job more effectively while avoiding the performance issues associated with mixed-bed systems.

Even better, Tabor Water Solutions utilizes a proprietary service tool that allows our technicians to remove and replace the softening resin located beneath the activated carbon without disturbing the carbon media. This exclusive capability makes future service more efficient, reduces maintenance complexity, and helps protect your investment for years to come.

Maintaining Peak Performance

Activated carbon naturally becomes exhausted over time as it removes chlorine, tastes, and odors from your water. To ensure your RC system continues performing at its best, we recommend replacing the activated carbon media every five years.

Because activated carbon protects the softening resin from chlorine exposure, replacement of the carbon media every five years is required to maintain the resin warranty. All other applicable system warranty coverage remains unchanged.

As part of our commitment to long-term customer care, Tabor Water Solutions can perform this maintenance, inspect your system, and replace the carbon media to help maximize performance and protect your investment for years to come.
