Adding Salt
Use only crystal water softener salt. Check the salt level monthly. It is important to main-
tain the salt level above the water level. To add salt, simply lift the salt lid and add the salt
directly into the brine tank. Be sure the brine well cover is on and fill only to the height of
the brine well.
Bridging
Humidity or wrong type of salt may create a cavity between the water and the salt. This ac-
tion, known as “bridging”, prevents the brine solution from being made, leading to your wa-
ter supply being hard. If you suspect salt bridging, carefully pound on the outside of the
brine tank or pour some warm water over the salt to break up the bridge. This should al-
ways be followed up by allowing the unit to use up any remaining salt and then thoroughly
cleaning out the brine tank. Allow four hours to produce a brine solution, then manually re-
generate the softener.
To retain the attractive appearance of your new water softener, clean occasionally with mild
soap solution. Do not use abrasive cleaners, ammonia or solvents. Never subject your sof-
tener to freezing or to temperatures above 100°F.
Resin Cleaner
An approved resin cleaner must be used on a regular basis if your water supply contains
iron. The amount of resin cleaner and frequency of use is determined by the quantity of
iron in your water (consult your local representative or follow the directions on the resin
cleaner package).
