I heard back from the softener company. they think they put catalytic carbon media in it. not pyrolox. now they use a 3-1 mix of Birm to Filter AG. I still don't understand the difference between these media, but I gather the solid manganese media last longer but are heavier and harder to backwash than the coated media. I suppose anything would be better than the catalytic carbon thats in there.
The H2O2 injection looks interesting but i'd prefer to avoid the extra expense, complexity and babysitting that comes with it. if changing out the media doesn't work long term I may have no choice.
