Patent number: 9758387Abstract: A method for fluid treatment that provides variable or alternative regeneration cycles within the same fluid treatment device. The duration of all stages of the regeneration cycle can be adjusted depending upon the amount of fluid treated so that regenerant resources such as water are not underutilized and waste is not discharged unnecessarily into the environment. Additionally or alternatively, a regeneration sequence may include a fluid release sequence in which a fluid is released from a water treatment tank by successive linear movement of a piston in a valve assembly.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2014Date of Patent: September 12, 2017Assignee: Water-Right, Inc.Inventors: Kurt Gruett, Guy Gruett, Gregory C. Gruett

Patent number: 7563361Abstract: A system for fluid treatment that provides alternative regeneration cycles within the same fluid treatment device. A second alternative regeneration cycle is available within the same device, which has independent cycles or processes from the first regeneration cycle. The first and second regeneration cycles can be programmed at the same time and be programmed to alternatively run based upon the number of individual cycles run, the time the cycles have run, the amount of fluid that has passed through the device, or the concentration of brine and/or chlorine in the fluid within the device.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2008Date of Patent: July 21, 2009Assignee: Water-Right, Inc.Inventors: Guy Gruett, Kurt Gruett, Glenn Gruett

Patent number: 6726817Abstract: An apparatus for determining ions strength in a solution. In relation to a chlorinator, a control circuit senses the strength of the brine by determining current flow through an associated chlorinator. Depending on the level of current flow, different signal configurations occur to advise of the status of the apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 1999Date of Patent: April 27, 2004Assignee: Water-Right, Inc.Inventor: Glenn Gruett
