Specifications & Performance Claims

This model is efficiency rated.  The efficiency rating is valid only at the minimum salt dose.  This system has a

demand initiated regeneration (D.I.R.) feature that complies with specific performance specifications intended to min-

imize the amount of regenerant brine and water used in their operation.
This water treatment system has a rated softener efficiency of not less than 3,350 grains of total hardness exchange

per pound of salt (based on sodium chloride) and shall not deliver more salt than its listed rating or be operated at a

sustained maximum service flow rate greater than its listed rating.  This system has been proven to deliver soft

water for at least ten continuous minutes at the rated service flow rate.  The rated salt efficiency is measured by lab-

oratory tests described in NSF/ANSI Standard 44.  These tests represent the maximum possible efficiency that the

system can achieve.  Operational efficiency is the actual efficiency after the system has been installed.  It is typically

less than the rated efficiency, due to individual application factors including water hardness, water usage, and other

contaminants that reduce a softener's capacity.
While testing was performed under standard laboratory conditions, actual performance of the system may vary based

on local water conditions.  This system has been tested according to NSF/ANSI Standard 42 for the reduction of chlorine

taste and odor.  The concentration of the indicated substance in water entering the system was reduced to a concentra-

tion less than or equal to the permissible limit for water leaving the system, as specified in NSF/ANSI Standard 42.
