Things to Check Before You Call For Service

If you unexpectedly experience hard water, make these simple checks before calling your Culligan dealer.
One of the following conditions may be the reason for your interruption of service.

IMPORTANT

If any of the following conditions is found, the water conditioner should be manually recharged according
to instructions on page 9 after you have corrected the problem.

POWER SUPPLY

Check your power supply cord. Is it plugged fully into the electric outlet? Be certain that the outlet is not
controlled by a wall switch which has been turned off. Reset conditioner to proper time of day and then
plug in.

BLOWN FUSE

Check the house fuse or circuit breaker panel. Replace a blown-out fuse or reset an open circuit breaker.

POWER FAILURE

Any interruption in your power supply or time changes - such as daylight savings - will disrupt your
conditioner’s recharge schedule by causing the timer to run off-schedule. Reset timer to proper time of
day.

BYPASS VALVES

Check to see if they are in the proper position. Cul-Flo-Valv

®

 Bypass, if used, should be in the “Push for

Service” position. If hand valves are used, see that inlet and outlet valve are opened and that the bypass
valve is closed.

NO WATER

If you aren’t getting any water flow at all, make sure your water supply is working. Open a tap ahead of
the conditioner (outside tap) to see if you have any water pressure. If you have water pressure, check the
bypass valve. If it is in the Service position, put it into the bypass and call your Culligan dealer for service.

INCREASED USAGE

Guests, family additions, new water-using appliances, etc., all will result in more water usage and will
require more capacity from your conditioner. You can reprogram your recharging schedule by following
the directions on pages 9 and 10. Call your Culligan dealer for advice and save a service call.

SALT SUPPLY

Check it. Refill if necessary and wait approximately 4 hours for salt to dissolve before  initiating a recharge
cycle.

SALT BRIDGING

Salt bridging occurs when a space is formed between the salt and the water underneath, preventing the salt
from dissolving to make brine. No brine, no soft conditioned water!

High humidity and/or use of some brands of purified salt products may cause a salt bridge to form.

The best way to check and eliminate a salt bridging problem is to take a broom handle or similar instru-
ment and make a mark 34 inches from the end. Then carefully begin to probe down through the salt with
