COMPONENTS OF THE WATER SOFTENER
The softener is the absolute solution to scale problems in water. Very easy to install and to use, it is made
up of a container for the resins, a container for the salt, necessary for periodically regenerating the resins,
and a hydropneumatic valve which, controlled by a timer, carries out the regeneration cycles necessary to
keep the unit efficient.
Note: In Decal and Duplex models the brine tank is separated from the valve/ timer group.
IMPORTANT: the softener may be installed on municipal water only. For different applications
(on well water, etc.) please ask GEL Export Department by e-mail (export@gel.it) for the written
authorisation indicating the serial number of the softener.
