I have this tank in my basement that I can't figure out what it is for.
Possibly a water softener, or filter. It's starting to leak (probably from
rust), but I don't know what it is to replace! Can you identify? It's from
the early 80's probably.

Looks like a sediment trap to me.

The water on the floor isn't necessarily a leak: it could be condensation.
