Water Softener with 3 Stage Jumbo Filter in UAE: Specifications, Diagram and Installation
KHAZAAN water softener with 3 stage jumbo filter softens hard water and filters sand, rust and chlorine for the whole house. Specs and diagram included.
Hard water leaves white scale on taps, glass and water heaters, and it shortens the life of pipes and appliances. The KHAZAAN water softener with 3 stage jumbo filter treats the water at the main line, so every tap, shower and appliance in the house gets softened and filtered water. This guide sets out how the system works, the full specifications, the installation diagram and the five installation steps.
What Is a Water Softener with a 3 Stage Jumbo Filter?
It is a two-part whole-house system. The first part is an automatic, metered water softener. It removes hardness, which is the calcium and magnesium dissolved in the water. The second part is a 3 stage jumbo filter with large 20 inch housings. It catches sand, silt, rust, dirt, chlorine, bad taste and odour that remain after softening.
The two units are installed one after the other on the main line, after the pressure pump. Together they provide softer, cleaner water for the whole house, not just for one tap.
Key Benefits
- Soft and clean water. The softener removes hardness and the filter removes particles and odour.
- 3 stage filtration. Sediment, activated carbon, then fine sediment, in that order.
- Protects pipes, tanks and appliances. Less scale builds up on fittings, heaters and washing machines.
- Softer skin and hair. Soft water rinses cleaner and leaves less residue.
- Better taste for drinking and cooking. Carbon filtering reduces chlorine taste and odour.
- Saves energy and reduces maintenance. Less scale means less work for heating elements and less cleaning.
- Long life and low maintenance. The valve regenerates automatically, and you only top up salt and change cartridges.
How It Works
The water passes through two stages:
- Softening. Hard water enters the softener tank. The resin removes the calcium and magnesium ions and replaces them with sodium ions. The result is soft water.
- Filtering. The soft water then passes through the 3 stage jumbo filter, which removes the remaining impurities, dirt, rust, chlorine, bad taste and odour.
Inside the Softener Tank
The softener tank holds four working parts:
- Food grade resin. Removes hardness, which is the calcium and magnesium in the water.
- Gravel layer (upper). Supports the resin and distributes the water evenly.
- Gravel layer (lower). Prevents the resin from escaping to the riser.
- Bottom distributor. Ensures even water flow during operation.
The 3 Stage Jumbo Filter
| Stage | Filter | What it removes |
|---|---|---|
| Stage 1 | Sediment filter, 5 micron | Sand, silt, rust and dirt |
| Stage 2 | Activated carbon filter | Chlorine, bad taste, odour and organic impurities |
| Stage 3 | Sediment filter, 1 micron | Fine particles, for clean and clear water |
Installation Diagram (Main Line)
The system is installed on the main line in this order, after the pressure pump:
- Main water tank
- Pressure pump
- Water softener (automatic softener)
- 3 stage jumbo filter
- Distribution to the whole house
If you store water in a tank first, the softener sits after the pump that feeds the house. Our water storage tanks supply the tank at the start of this line.

Installation Steps
Installation is done in five steps:
- Place the system. Place the softener and the filter in a suitable location near the main water line and the drain.
- Connect the inlet. Connect the inlet from the pressure pump to the softener inlet (IN).
- Connect the outlet. Connect the outlet from the softener to the inlet of the 3 stage jumbo filter.
- Connect to the house line. Connect the filter outlet to the main line going to the house.
- Check and flush. Check all connections for leaks and flush the system before use.
A KHAZAAN technician can carry out the installation and test the water before leaving. For the wider range of home treatment, see our home water purifiers.
How to Use and Maintain It
- Open the inlet and outlet valves.
- Make sure the system is in service mode.
- The softener then softens the water automatically.
- Replace the filter cartridges every 6 to 12 months.
- Refill salt in the brine tank regularly. The salt tank holds 100 litres and takes tablet salt or softener salt.
- Do regular maintenance for the best performance.
Plan the cartridge changes and salt refills in advance. Our water purifier care plans cover scheduled servicing, cartridge replacement and softener salt delivery.
Is This System Right for Your Home?
This system is built for a whole house on the main line. Before you choose it, check these points against your property:
- Hardness. The softener is rated for feed water with hardness up to 1000 ppm, depending on the feed water. A water test shows your actual level.
- Water pressure. The system works at 2 to 6 bar. The filter works best at 2 to 4 bar.
- Flow. The softener is rated at 1.0 to 2.5 m³/h and the filter at up to 3000 litres per hour. Compare this with the peak demand of the house.
- Power and drain. The valve needs a 220-240V supply and a 1/2 inch drain connection.
- Space. The softener tank is 1.55 m high and the filter sits on a steel bracket. Both need room for salt refills and cartridge changes.
- Temperature. The water should be between 5°C and 45°C.
Softening replaces hardness minerals with sodium. If anyone in the household follows a sodium-restricted diet, ask a doctor about drinking softened water. Many homes also add a separate drinking water purifier at the kitchen tap.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does a water softener with a 3 stage jumbo filter do? A: It removes hardness (calcium and magnesium) from the water, then filters sand, silt, rust, dirt, chlorine, bad taste and odour through three stages. It treats the main line, so the whole house gets the treated water.
Q: Where is the water softener installed? A: On the main line, after the pressure pump. The order is main water tank, pressure pump, water softener, 3 stage jumbo filter, then distribution to the whole house.
Q: How often do the filter cartridges need replacing? A: Every 6 to 12 months. One full set of cartridges is included with the system.
Q: What salt does the softener use? A: Tablet salt or softener salt. The brine tank holds 100 litres, and you refill it regularly. The unit regenerates automatically by time or by water meter.
Q: What hardness can the softener handle? A: It is rated for hardness up to 1000 ppm, depending on the feed water. A water test at your property shows the level you actually have.
Q: What are the three filter stages? A: Stage 1 is a 5 micron sediment filter for sand, silt, rust and dirt. Stage 2 is an activated carbon filter for chlorine, bad taste, odour and organic impurities. Stage 3 is a 1 micron sediment filter for fine particles.
Q: Does it need electricity? A: Yes. The automatic digital control valve runs on a 220-240V, 50/60Hz supply.
Q: Will softened water change how my skin and hair feel? A: Soft water rinses soap more completely, so many people notice softer skin and hair. Results vary with your water.
