TOPPING UP WITH SALT
Salt is used as the cleansing agent for your water softener’s resin bed. The
salt cabinet will need to be refilled. Do not fill the salt above the brine well
cover (see diagram on page 3).
IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT APPROXIMATELY 12CM OF SALT IS MAINTAINED
AS A MINIMUM TO ENSURE OPERATING EFFICIENCY.
Failure to replenish salt will prevent the unit from cleansing itself on its
recharge cycle and consequently it will be unable to soften water.
Pour the salt slowly into the cabinet. Ensure that the brine well cap is
secure, as no salt should be allowed to enter here. DO NOT use granular
salt. ONLY USE TABLET OR PELLET SALT.
Your local water softener stockist will stock salt.
SALT USAGE
Because your automatic demand water softener uses proportional brining,
more frequent recharges are not at the expense of high salt usage. If you
are a household with low water usage you will find after a few months
that your water softener will become increasingly efficient, as it adapts to
suit your water usage.
HOLIDAYS
We recommend that you by-pass your water softener if you are away
from your home for long periods of time. See page 6 on how to by-pass
your water softener.
CLEANING
Your unit may be cleaned with a damp cloth and detergent.
Do not use bleaches, solvents or spirits as this may cause damage.
WATER LEVEL
The water level will vary. Generally there will be no more than two inches
of water in the cabinet, during recharge this will increase. Water may
normally be visible only when the salt level is very low.
BUILDING A HISTORY
Because it has no historical data to base its logic on, your water softener
will recharge quite frequently when first used to ensure continuous softened
water. Within a few months, it will settle into a more regular pattern.
LARGE INFLUXES OF GUESTS
If you have people to stay and use more water than normal, you will
find that your automatic demand water softener recharges more
frequently. As your household water usage returns to normal, so too
will the recharge frequency.
