System Overview
The Culligan Whole House PFAS Filter system with Smart Flow Monitor provides reliable reduction of many PFAS chemicals�
The system design utilizes the unique properties of granular activated carbon (GAC) combined with PFAS-specific anion
exchange resin in individual filter tanks to maximize PFAS reduction and treated water capacity for whole-home filtration�
The Culligan Aquasential Smart Flow Monitor accurately records treated water volume and alerts end-users when media
replacement may be required� The Smart Flow Monitor provides visual and audible alerts at the system and optional alerts
through the Culligan Connect app and Remote Equipment Gateway� Your local Culligan dealer can provide PFAS water
testing, remote system monitoring, and filter media replacement when required�
Aquasential PFAS Filter Application Guidelines
Proper application has a direct influence on the performance and service life expectancy of this water filter system� It is important
to understand how the Culligan PFAS filter functions, to know its capabilities and limitations for a successful application, and
to understand pretreatment requirements� Follow the recommendations and guidelines in this manual to maximize system
efficiency and performance�
Water Quality
Verify that raw water characteristics and flow rate are within the limits as outlined in the specifications and in the following
Application section�
CAUTION!
Do not use where the water is microbiologically unsafe or with water of unknown quality without
adequate disinfection before or after the unit.
Pressure
Although the system is designed and tested to operate at a maximum pressure of 125 psi (860 kPa), it is not expected
that the system should be exposed to such pressure for extended operation� Culligan recommends following the
IAPMO Uniform Plumbing code section 806�2 by installing a Pressure Regulating Valve if the water pressure is greater
than 80 psi� Operating on pressures above the UPC for extended periods of time can increase the service frequency
and failure of replacement parts� On a private water system, make sure the minimum pressure (when the pump starts)
is greater than 20 psi (140 kPa)�
CAUTION!
The use of a pressure reducing valve may limit the flow of water in the household.
Temperature
Do not install the unit where it might freeze, or next to a heat source that will result in exceeding the maximum
operating temperature� If installing in an outdoor location, you must take the steps necessary to assure the filter,
installation plumbing, etc� are as well protected from the elements (sunlight, rain, wind, heat, cold), contamination,
vandalism, etc� as when installed indoors�
