Minimax softeners are entirely designed and manufactured in the UK and are one of the smallest, most effective and most reliable water softener in the world.

  • Unique Twin Cylinder Design

    While Minimax uses ultra-fine resin beads to speed up the regeneration cycle, it's dual cylinder design cuts wastage and maintenance costs. Resin in one cylinder can self regenerate using soft water from the other, keeping valves free of lime-scale damage, while the on-line cylinder keeps up a continuous soft water supply for the household.

  • Advanced Automatic Metering

    It doesn't matter how much your water consumption varies, your Minimax unit won't need adjusting - even if you go on holiday. That is because the water flow is accurately measured automatically, so only the right amount of salt is used at any one time.

  • Superior Salt Loading

    Minimax uses purpose designed block salt which comes in easily handled twin pack that is convenient to load and store.

So Economical - But So Effective!

Although the Minimax water softener is very compact, it's clever side-valve design allows for maximum softening capacity. So for a system that takes up little space, works unobtrusively, needs no mains electricity supply and virtually looks after itself - it's quite a performer!
