providing your home with filtered water.
Regeneration cycles*:
1. First up-flow backwash. A rapid up-flow of water flushes out the media bed.
2. Regeneration. Regenerant is drawn out of the brine cabinet and up through the
media tank, cleaning the media bed and releasing accumulated iron and hydrogen sulfide.
3. Slow rinse. A slow up-flow rinse process then flushes out the regenerant and iron.
4. Second up-flow backwash. This up-flow backwash flushes out any remaining regenerant
and sediment from cycle 2.
5. Downflow clean water refill. Filtered water is directed to the solution
cabinet to prepare the regenerant for the next regeneration sequence.
6. Return to service. Regeneration is complete and the appliance is returned to normal
operation.
*NOTE: The regeneration cycles described above only applies to the 97WB-IF.
