Calcite is a crushed and screened white marble material which can inexpensively be used to neutralize acidic or low pH waters to a neutral noncorrosive effluent. Acidic waters on contact with Calcite slowly dissolve the calcium carbonate media to raise the pH which reduces the potential leaching of copper, lead and other metals found in typical plumbing systems. The Calcite bed will have to be periodically added to as the dissolved Calcite depletes. As the Calcite's calcium carbonate neutralizes the water, it will increase hardness and a water softener may become necessary after the neutralizing filter.
