• The salt level should always be at least
1/3 full. Refill salt when the level drops
below the water level in the brine
cabinet. A resin cleaner can be used
on a monthly basis. Clean white pellet,
cube-style, or solar salt is recommended.
Do not use rock salt.
• You may use a salt substitute
(such as potassium chloride) in place
of water conditioner salt. If potassium
chloride is used in place of salt, multiply
compensated hardness by 1.12.
• Should your electricity be off for
any reason, check your controller for
correct time and reset as necessary.
(See Step 10 - Setting the Controller)
• Program the water softener to
regenerate at a time when water is not
being used. Regeneration runs salt and
water through the tank so that it’s ready
to soften your water. If there is more
than one water appliance, allow two
hours between each regeneration.
• If dirt, sand, or large particles
are present in water supply, the
self-contained water softener filter
will remove some dirt and sediment.
To achieve the maximum benefit and performance from your water softener, familiarize
yourself with this manual. If this device is not maintained and operated as specified in the
owner’s manual, there is a risk of exposure to contaminants.
• The water softener may be
disinfected with 5.25% sodium
hypochlorite, which is the active
ingredient in household chlorine
bleach. To disinfect appliance, add
4.0 fluid ounces (120 mL) of chlorine
bleach solution to brine well of the
brine tank. Brine tank should have
water in it. You may also add it
directly into brine cabinet if there
is no salt and only water in cabinet.
Start a manual regeneration.
• Protect the water softener, including
the drain line, from freezing.
• Bypass Valve (attached to the main
control valve) enables you to bypass
the water softener if any work is
being performed on it, the well pump,
or plumbing. Use Bypass Mode also
for watering plants or lawns with
untreated water. To bypass, turn black
knob to the left until it hits the stop;
turn it to the right to restore service.
(see Bypass Valve Overview)
• Before putting the water softener
back in service after work has been
performed, turn on nearest cold water
tap until water runs clear.
• Adhere to all operational, maintenance,
and placement requirements.
• Inspect and clean the brine cabinet
and air check/draw tube assembly
annually or when sediment is
present in brine tank.
