NOT USE ROCK SALT
.
Water Pressure
Inlet water pressure range of 20-125 psi is required for regeneration valve to
operate effectively.
Electrical Facilities
An uninterrupted alternating current (A/C) supply is required. Please make
sure voltage supply is compatible with unit before installation.
A backup 9-Volt
battery should be installed and properly maintained (replace yearly).
Existing Plumbing
Condition of existing plumbing should be free from lime and iron buildup.
Replace piping that has heavy lime and/or iron buildup. If piping is clogged with
iron, install a separate iron filter unit ahead of the water softener.
By-pass Valves
Always install a by-pass valve if unit is not equipped with one. If valve is leaking,
turn by-pass from Service to the By-pass position.
NOTE: A check valve (included in extension pipe feeding by-pass valve) must be
installed on the inlet to the unit.
NOTE:
If the valve continues to leak after turning the by-pass to By-pass position,
shut off the main water line and call your local service technician (preferably
the one who installed the system) IMMEDIATELY.
CAUTION
• Do not exceed water pressure of 125 psi.
• Do not exceed water temperature of 110°F.
• Do not subject unit to freezing conditions.
