FILTER SETUP
Manual Regeneration
Sometimes there is a need to regenerate the system, sooner than when the system calls for it,
usually referred to as manual regeneration. There may be a period of heavy water usage because
of guests or a heavy laundry day.
To initiate a manual regeneration at the preset delayed regeneration time, press and release
“REGEN”. The words “REGEN TODAY” will flash in left corner of display to indicate that the
system will regenerate at the preset delayed regeneration time. If you pressed the “REGEN”
button in error, pressing the button again will cancel the request.
To initiate a manual regeneration immediately, press and hold the “REGEN” button for three
seconds. The system will begin to regenerate immediately. The request cannot be cancelled. You
must cycle all the way through the cycles to make it stop. PLEASE NOTE: This will reset the meter.
Regeneration Mode
Typically a system is set to regenerate at a time of low water usage. An example of a time with low
water usage is when the household is asleep. If there is a demand for water when the system is
regenerating, untreated water will be supplied.
When the system begins to regenerate, the display will change to include information about the step
of the regeneration process and the time remaining for that step to be completed. The system runs
through the steps automatically and will reset itself to provide treated water when the regeneration
has been completed.

Backwash rates illustrated above are based upon 8-12 GPM per square foot of area and water with a temperature of 50º F. These
flow rates are typical for use with medias such as Carbon; Multi-Media, Neutralizing Media, or Birm. Specific media and conditions
may require specific flow rates.
