Puits Saumure Dia 160 mm pour Reservoir 300-520 L, ref. PENT-E02690

Brine well / chimney

The brine well (chimney) houses the valve float and screen and protects the suction line from undissolved salt. It secures the fill/draw cycle and prevents salt clogs. The lid neatly closes the assembly. Reference: PUITS SAUMURE DIA 160 MM POUR RESERVOIR 300-520 L.

Function in the brining line

A high-performing softener relies on a well-designed brining line: salt tank, floor/grid, brine well, fittings and safeties work together to prepare a clean, regular brine. Each item plays a precise role in salt dissolution, valve protection and the reliability of regeneration cycles. A suitable accessory prevents common failures (salt bridges, impurity suction, overflows).

Materials & compatibility

Made from materials suitable for drinking-water and brine contact (PE/PP/PVC/ABS depending on the part), this accessory resists salt corrosion and ageing. Check compatibility with the tank diameter, valve range and softener model before ordering.

Installation & maintenance

Fitting follows the valve manufacturer's guidance, usually without special tools. Check the tightness of connections, the absence of overflow leaks and the cleanliness of parts in contact with brine. Annual maintenance (cleaning, inspection) extends the system's life and secures regeneration.

Integration with the softener

This accessory belongs to a coherent set: salt tank, floor, brine well, safety, fittings and jacket. Well chosen, it guarantees a clean brine and a trouble-free regeneration cycle. We recommend checking its fit with the other brining-line elements and replacing it as soon as wear (cracking, scaling, tired seal) appears, to preserve the softener's efficiency and the quality of the softened water delivered throughout the installation.

Salt & water savings

A suitable, maintained brining accessory contributes directly to savings: a clean, regular brine prevents salt waste, empty regenerations and excessive drain discharge. By making the brining line reliable, it prevents failures and overflows, reduces call-outs and extends the softener's life, a small component with real ecological and economic benefit.

Choosing right

To choose well, identify precisely your salt tank's diameter and volume, the valve range and the softener model, then match them to the catalogue reference. An undersized or incompatible accessory harms regeneration. If unsure, the DIMM team will point you to the exactly compatible part.

Good to know

Keep the exact part reference for future re-supply: diameters and lengths vary by range. When replacing, also check the condition of the other brining-line components (seals, screen, float). A genuine or strictly compatible part prevents leaks and malfunctions. If unsure about compatibility, send us the valve and softener model.
