APPENDIX B
The
HANS
™
Premium Water Appliance
is designed to operate with a wide range of feed
water; however, feed water should never be out of the following parameters:
•
Chlorine > 4 ppm (with optional Chlorine filters) Chlorine levels > 3 will drastically
reduce your stage 2 filter capacity.
•
Chloramines > 4 ppm (with optional Chloramine filters) Chloramine levels > 3 will
drastically reduce your stage 2 filter capacity.
•
Hardness > 30 gpg
•
Iron > 2.5ppm Levels over 2.5ppm it is recommended to have an Iron Reduction
System.
•
TDS > 700
•
Turbidity < 1 nephelometric turbidity unit (NTU)
•
Surface Water
If any of your water parameters fall outside of this range, a pre filter system will be needed
to pretreat the feed water to the
HANS
™
Premium Water Appliance
. Please contact
Customer Service if you have any questions
Jet Sizing
To determine Jet size needed, have feed water tested for hardness in GPG, TDS, and iron in
ppm. Use test numbers to determine which jet the system requires.
NOTE:
Devices come with jets set for the largest range of use, use care when
changing to smaller jets that input water is proper quality. Always use the
largest jet from the 3 charts; example for a 2 Element system:
Water Hardness
20 GPG
jet size - #3
TDS
140 ppm
jet size - #2
Iron
1.5 ppm
jet size - #3
Jet size required - #3
