Maintenance
Care of Your System
To retain the attractive appearance of your new water filter, clean occasionally with mild
soap solution. Do not use abrasive cleaners, ammonia or solvents. Never subject your sof-
tener to freezing or to temperatures above 100°F.
Maintenance of your new water filter requires very little time or effort but it is essential.
Regular maintenance will ensure many years of efficient and trouble-free operation.
1. Periodically make sure your pump is performing satisfactorily to ensure sufficient water is
available for backwashing the filter.
2. Periodically test your raw and filtered water to ensure conditions are still the same for
your original settings and that the unit is working they way it is intended to. Water test-
ing is often the best way to determine when the filter media will require replacement.
3. Periodically check that the drain line is clear and free from any obstructions.
NE - Neutralizing Filter - the media bed in a neutralizing filter is slowly dissolved and has
to be replaced. The frequency of replacement varies, depending on water quality - consult
your dealer to determine the expected life of your media bed.
AC - Taste and Odor Filter
- under normal operating conditions the effective life of the
filter media is approximately one to three years, depending on the water quality, after
which, taste and odor problems may return. When this happens, contact your dealer for a
replacement media bed.
MM - Sediment and Turbidity Filter
- under normal operating conditions, the media
should never need to be replaced. However, if you experience pressure loss and cannot cor-
rect it with a manual regeneration, your media bed may need replacing - contact your
dealer.
Replacing the Media Bed
Check to ensure all media parts are received.
The first step in replacing the media bed is to shut off the water supply to the filter. Then
place the unit into the backwash position to release any pressure in the lines. At this point,
you must disconnect the plumbing from the inlet and outlet. Then unscrew the control
valve from the fibreglass tank. Once this has been done, remove the distributor tube. Then
you can remove the filter media and two types of gravel from the tank. The quickest way to
do this is by simply tipping the tank upside down into a large drum or pail. The tank must
be rinsed out completely and have no media or gravel left in it at all.
