Start another regeneration as
indicated in the previous section.
Check that the water level in the
salt tank goes down during the first
minutes of the regeneration. This
means that the brine suction process
is being carried out properly. Let the
regeneration end.
‘
WARNING
’ It is essential to check
that the brine suction is being
carried out properly, since an incorrect
or insufficient suction will affect the
equipment performance and the quality
of treated water.
9. Charge the brine tank with salt.
10. The system is ready to operate.

WARNING
’ There is a danger of
injury due to an excess of weight. It
is necessary that at least two persons
move and rise the salt bags. There is a
danger of back injuries and other body
injuries.

1. Service position: blue.
2. By-pass position: red.
3. Fully closed.
4. Fully open.
As mentioned in “Section 2.7”, it is not
recommended to supply completely
softened water to household supplies.
In order to modify the residual hardness,
slightly open the regulating valve, as
indicated in the images below.
Then measure the water hardness
present on the outlet of the system
and check that it fits within the desired
values. Otherwise, adjust the regulator
and check again.

WARNING
’ The hardness regulator
is supplied in the closed position,
therefore, if the system is not adjusted, it
will supply fully softened water.
10. MAINTENANCE
AND SANITATION
In order to guarantee the proper
operation of the system, the following
verifications must be carried out as
frequently as indicated:
Verification Period
C
heck the salt level in the tank
Monthly
Check entry hardness
Monthly
Check treated water hardness
Monthly
Sanitation Yearly
Cleaning of the salt tank
Yearly
Technical service verification
Yearly
It is very important to carry out
the sanitation and descaling tasks
separately, since the chemical products
used for this purpose could have a bad
reaction when mixed. The sanitation
and descaling tasks must be carried
out by turns, according to the indicated
frequency.
Salt refilling:
The salt level in the tank must be
frequently checked. The minimum salt
level must be kept, which corresponds
to the half of the tank volume. If salt
runs down before filling it up again, the
system will produce hard water. After
the verification, check that the salt cover
is properly closed.
Note: For humid areas, it is
recommended to keep a lower salt
level, filling it up more frequently.
Only use salt manufactured for use in
water softeners. The use of block salt
is not recommended. DO NOT USE
