Water Softener Operation.
o
Ensure that the water softener is operating properly before initial startup by
testing the water from the water softener for hardness. If hardness is more
than 1 grain per gallon (17.1 ppm), the softener is not functioning properly.
Verify the following:
1.
Water Feed Supply - the water feed supply must be connected to the
proper inlet on the water softener head, with the inward-pointing
arrow. Water from the softener to the RIO-S OSG must be connected
to the outlet, with the outward pointing arrow.
2.
Check Valve - the brine recharge hose has a check valve in the middle
of the line with an arrow that must be pointing from the brine
generator toward the water softener.
3.
Brine Generator – verify that there is sufficient brine in the brine
generator for the water softener to regenerate. Confirm that brine
flows freely out of the tank.
