Summary

Steps of Water Softener Operation

Hard water flows through resin, removing minerals and iron. Resin capacity depends on resin amount and salt dosage.

Normal Operating Displays

System displays alternate between current time and days/gallons remaining before regeneration.

The words 'REGEN TODAY' appear on display if a regeneration is scheduled for that day.

General Care and Maintenance Information

Control Valve Maintenance

Keep valve body and cover free of dirt and debris. No lubrication is required.

Brine Tank Cleaning

Major cleaning recommended every two years. Follow detailed steps for emptying, cleaning, and refilling.

Salt and Potassium Supply

Maintain adequate salt (6-8") or potassium (12") level. Use pellet salt; do not overfill if usage is low.

Resin Cleaning Recommendations

Clean resin annually or as needed to maintain effectiveness, especially if iron is present in water.

Plumbing and Connection Guidelines

Inlet/Outlet Plumbing Procedure

Connect to supply line, install shutoff valve, and attach fittings before securing nuts/rings to avoid heat damage.

Drain Line Setup and Flow Control

Ensure drain capacity, proper fitting placement, and use appropriate tubing or pipe for backwash flow.

Overflow Line Connection

Install an overflow line to a drain to prevent damage from potential brine overflows.

Drain Line Safety: Air Gap

Crucial: Maintain air gap between drain line and wastewater to prevent back-siphoning into the conditioner.
