Installation Instructions

ADD WATER AND SALT TO THE SALT

STOR AGE TANK

1

. Using a container, add about three gallons of clean

water into the salt storage tank.

2

. Add salt to the storage tank.  Use nugget, pellet or

coarse solar salts with less than 1% impurities.

PLUG IN THE POWER SUPPLY

During installation, the water softener wiring may be

moved or jostled from place.  Be sure all leadwire con-

nectors are secure on the back of the electronic board

and be sure all wiring is away from the valve gear and

motor area, which rotates during regenerations.

1

. Plug the water softener’s power supply into an elec-

trical outlet that is not controlled by a switch and is

approved by local codes.

NOTE:

The water heater is filled with hard water and,

as hot water is used, it will refill with condi-

tioned water.  In a few days, the hot water will

be fully conditioned.  To have fully conditioned

hot water immediately, wait until the initial

recharge is over.  Then, drain the water heater

(following instructions for water heater) until

water runs cold.

PROGRAM THE CONTROLLER

1

. Install the softener’s top cover and salt lid.

2

. Complete the Programming Steps on Pages 12 & 13.

SANITIZE THE WATER SOFTENER /

SANITIZE AFTER SERVICE

Care is taken at the factory to keep your unit clean and

sanitary.  Materials used to make the unit will not infect

or contaminate your water supply, and will not cause

bacteria to form or grow.  However, during shipping,

storage, installation and operation, bacteria could get

into the unit.  For this reason, sanitizing as follows is

suggested* when installing.

1

. Slide open the salt lid, remove the brinewell cover

and pour about 3 oz. (6 tablespoons) of household

bleach into the softener brinewell.  Replace the

brinewell cover.

2

Make sure the bypass valve(s) is in the “service”

(open) position.

3 Start a recharge:

Press the RECHARGE button and

hold for 3 seconds, until “Recharge Now” begins to

flash in the display.  This recharge draws the sanitiz-

ing bleach into and through the water softener.  Any

air remaining in the unit is purged to the drain.

4

. After the recharge has completed, fully open a cold

water faucet, downstream from the softener, and

allow 50 gallons of water to pass through the sys-

tem.  This should take at least 20 minutes.  Close

the faucet.

*

Recommended by the Water Quality Association.  On some

water supplies, the unit may need periodic disinfecting.

RESTART THE WATER HEATER

1

. Turn on the electricity or fuel supply to the water

heater and relight the pilot, if applicable.

NOTE:

The water heater is filled with hard water and,

as hot water is used, it refills with conditioned

water.  In a few days, the hot water will be fully

conditioned.  To have fully conditioned hot

water immediately, wait until the initial recharge

(previous step) is over.  Then, drain the water

heater (following instructions for water heater)

until water runs cold.
