NOTE:
I
f there is an iron bleed or the water supply has high turbidity (sand, silt, sedi-
ments, etc.), set the filter to regenerate more often than the table above shows.
NOTE:
In some extreme iron conditions, a fill setting of 2 minutes (3 ounces of
potassium permanganate used), or 3 minutes (4 oz.) could be needed
for each regeneration.
NOTE:
If hydrogen sulfide is present, decrease the number of days between
recharges by one or more (to a minimum setting of 1 day between
recharges) until contaminant is removed.

. The filter’s default recharge start time is 12:00 AM.
This is normally a time of day when water is not
being used in the household. If you have a water
softener or another filter installed, the recharge
start times should be offset to assure adequate
water flow and pressure. For example, if the water
softener is set to begin recharge at 2:00 AM, set
the filter to start recharge at 12:00 AM, or 4:00 AM.
