Warnings & System Operational Requirements
The Crusader Water Quality Management System incorporates cutting-edge technology to
bring you water that is perfectly soft and free of inorganic minerals.
Your system is designed to address certain impurities in your water through the process of
salt-based ion exchange.
Your system should only be installed on water that is microbiologically safe. To ensure best
performance, and maintain warranty compliance, the following installation re-quirements
should be met:
Minimum Maximum
Water Temperature 30 F 75 F
Water Pressure 30 psi 75 psi
Inuent Water Hardness 0 gpg 100 gpg*
Inuent pH 6.7 8.7
Inuent TDS 10 ppm 1000 ppm*
Pathogenic Bacteria N/A 0 CFU
Chlorine 0 ppm 3 ppm
Chloramine 0 ppm 1 ppm
Ambient Temperature 40 F 120 F
* Inuent water hardness levels above 22gpg and TDS above 500ppm will negatively impact the taste of the water
Do not use with water that is unsafe or of unknown quality.
Test water periodically to verify that the system is performing satisfactorily.
Discard small parts remaining after installation.
Read and follow the information in this manual to minimize the risk of electric
shock or personal injury.
If you are unsure about the installation of your system, contact technical sup-
port, a professional plumber, or certied water specialist.
This system must be installed in compliance with applicable state and local
codes, applicable law, and regulations.
To bypass the system, turn bypass knob on both sides of the valve to bypass
