Placing Conditioner Into Operation 33
Rev C
7. Fill the media tank with water.
A. While the controller is in cycle (Backwash), open the water supply
valve very slowly to approximately the 1/4 open position.
B. When all of the air has been purged from the media tank (water
begins to flow steadily from the drain line), open the main supply
valve all of the way. This will purge the final air from the tank.
C. Allow water to run to drain until the water runs clear from the drain
line. This purges any refuse from the media bed.
D. Turn off the water supply and let the system stand for about five
minutes. This will allow any air trapped to escape from the tank.
8. Add water to the regenerant tank (initial fill) (conditioner only).
A. With a bucket or hose, add enough water to the regenerant tank to
cover the screen located at the end of the air check assembly at the
bottom of the regenerant tank.
If the tank has a salt platform in the bottom of the tank, add water
until the water level is approximately 1 inch (25 mm) above the
platform.
9. Advance the controller to the refill position to prime the line between
the regenerant tank and the valve (conditioner only). You must start
another regeneration to do this.

WARNING: If opened too rapidly or too far, media may be lost out of
the tank into the valve or the plumbing. In the ¼ open position, you
should hear air slowly escaping from the valve drain line.
NOTE: We recommend that you do not put regenerant into the tank
until after the control valve has been put into operation. With no
regenerant in the tank, it is much easier to view water flow and motion
in the tank.
