Systems With a Regenerant Tank
1.
Manually pour enough water into the regenerant tank to reach the top of the air check valve.
2.
Press and hold the REGEN button for three seconds until the drive motor starts. Press the REGEN button to advance the unit to
the backwash cycle. Wait until the motor stops and the backwash time begins to count down.
3.
Open the inlet water supply valve very slowly allowing water to fill the tank to expel air. CAUTION: If water flows too rapidly,
there will be a loss of media out of the drain.
4.
When the water is flowing steadily to the drain without the presence of air, press the REGEN button to advance the control to
brine position. Wait until the motor stops and the brine time begins to count down.
5.
Fully open the water supply inlet valve. Check that water is being drawn from the regenerant tank & there should be a slow flow
to the drain. Allow three minutes for the media bed to settle.
6.
Press the REGEN button to advance the unit to the rinse position. Allow water to run to drain for 2 - 3 minutes, or until the drain
runs clear.
7.
Press the REGEN button to advance to the fill position. Allow water to run into the regenerant tank and prepare it for the next
regeneration. Allow the regenerant tank to fill automatically. Systems with a salt grid should see a water level of 1 ½” - 2” above
the grid.
8.
Add salt to the tank, and allow ample time to dissolve salt for the brine solution.
9.
SANITIZE! Add a sanitizer to the regenerant tank brine well following dosage recommendations specified by the media
manufacturer. Press and hold the REGEN button for three seconds to begin regeneration. Allow the system to complete the
regeneration automatically. The system will now be sanitized and produce treated water. Be sure to check for local codes
which may also specify sanitization methods.
