Plumbline Set-up Procedures
1. Programming
Procedure
Calculate the gallon capacity of the system, subtract the necessary reserve
requirement and set the gallons available opposite the small white dot on the
program wheel gear. The capacity (gallons) arrow denotes remaining gallons
exclusive of fixed reserve.
ie: Calculated gallon capacity of system is 1000 gallons. Number of people
using the system is 4. Use 75 gallons per person for a safe reserve capacity
- 300 gallons reserve = 700 gallons available. This number should be set
opposite the white dot on program wheel.
2. How To Set The Time Of Day
Press and hold in the red button to disengage the drive gear. Turn the large
gear until the actual time of day is at the time of day pointer. Release the red
button to again engage the drive gear.
3. How To Manually Regenerate Your Water Conditioner At Any Time:
Turn the manual regeneration knob clockwise. This slight movement of the
manual regeneration knob engages the program wheel and starts the
regeneration program.
The black center knob will make one revolution in the following three (3)
hours (approximately) and stop in the position shown in Figure 1.

Product Line Overview
The Plumbline Water Softener is designed for applications with levels of
hardness <100 gpg and levels of iron <10 ppm.
The Plumbline Water Softener is available in four (4) tank sizes and adjustable
sequence times. These options allow the ideal configuration to be used for your
application.
Adjustable Regeneration Sequence Time:
This valve allows for the time adjustment of each stage of
regeneration which improves performance and reduces water
consumption.
Metered with Time Delay:
Metered systems are more efficient than timer configurations, as
these units regenerate based on the actual water used. The
integrated system meter tracks the volume of water processed and
after the adjustable set-point has been reached, the regeneration
process will start at 2:00 am. This allows for the process to take
place when minimum to no water is being used in the house.
