Steve;
Please tell me you didn't throw it away!!!

That is a factory installed bacteria removal system native to the URS
only! IT is very rare and hard to find! You will no doubt be forced to
order one through your dealer, the cost for replacing it will be very
expensive!

Quick, before your trash is picked up go retrieve it, it can only
survive outside of it's native enviroment for a short period of time!

If you can't retrieve it you may opt to happersize your system, you
know who is probably assembled an upgrade for this.

good luck with your washer system....

Chris
