OPERATION MODES
Standard Mode
This mode is the default operating mode when first plugged in. The on & off cycling is thermostatically
controlled automatically by the HydroMate®
unit’s SMARTCHIP . As the water temperature naturally cools
2-3 degrees the temperature sensor will activate the HydroMate® pump to reheat the water to the desired
temperature.
Overnight Mode
When this mode is selected the unit will not operate for a heat call or filter cycle during the
twelve hours following mode activation. This will repeat daily. When in this mode the unit will operate normally
for 12 hours and standby for 12 hours. The unit must be up to the desired temperature on the LED display
(ex:104°F) before initializing this setting.
