Abstract: An apparatus for dispensing and dissolving soluble water treatment materials is disclosed. The apparatus has an inlet, an outlet and a housing divided by a wall into an outlet chamber in fluid communication with the outlet and a dissolving chamber in communication with the inlet. A vertically adjustable control tube device for controlling the level of water in the dissolving chamber and an outlet valve device for maintaining the water level in the outlet chamber above the outlet are provided. A support device is provided to hold a plurality of cartridges with their lower ends immersed in the water in the dissolving chamber. A high water level malfunction shut-off valve with or without an indicator can be provided and the inlet flow can be controlled by perpendicular passageways with a rotary valve therebetween. The inlet may be in a wall of the outlet chamber and be isolated from the outlet chamber by an inlet valve mechanism leading to the dissolving chamber.
