Maintenance and care
1 | General information
In order to guarantee the reliable function of water softeners over a
long period of time, some maintenance work has to be performed at
regular intervals. This applies in particular to the softening of drinking
water where the required measures are defined in the pertinent regu-
lations and guidelines. All regulations and guidelines which apply at
the installation site must be strictly adhered to.
DIN EN 806-5 stipulates:
Inspection every second months.
Maintenance every six months.
For documentation of the maintenance work, an operation log (refer
to chapter H, item 5) must be kept.
Notes:
A maintenance contract ensures that all the required mainte-
nance work will be performed in due time.
2 | Inspection (functional check)
You may perform the regular inspections yourself.
Check the soft water hardness
Water test kit (“Total hardness”)
Check the salt level in the brine tank.
Refill salt, if necessary (refer to chapter H, item 2.1)
Note:
The salt level in the brine tank must always be higher than the
brine level.
Check tightness of control valve towards the drain (in operating
mode without regeneration process).
