Art would be right that KDG in mixed beds would be bad as its weight would cause it eventually to settle to the bottom of the mixed media and furthermore would not have enough backwash flow rate to lift it. The bacterialstatic media is not KDF-55 or KDF-85. It has also been several years since the bacteriostatic bed charge was done, so that's why I thought it could be the issue. It's not that obvious now and I have plenty of salt in the brine tank. It used to be that after a regen cycle, you could definitely tell the water was different, especially in the shower. I don't know where to begin finding any of the stuff to put in the tank, let alone actually getting to it. The charge for that was 93 bucks! Being a confirmed tightwad, I wanted to eliminate that expense, but this may be one of those cases where it's better to leave it to a professional. The 15 minute figure I got from my wife who watched the technician change it many years ago and she thinks that he was only here for 15 minutes or so. All of that is in the water conditioner tank, the one with the control valve, I also have another tank, the brine tank I guess which is where I add salt. I have a picture in my owners manual that shows HYgene Bacteriostatic Filter Media, then Ion Exchnange Softening Resin, and at the bottom, it shows gravel. All I know is what is printed on several invoices and they all say bacteriostatic bed charge. I do not know for sure what media is in there.
