EFFICIENCY STATEMENT
This product is efficiency rated according to NSF/ANSI 44. The stated efficiencies are valid only at the specified salt dosages and maximum service flow rate.
These softeners conform to NSF/ANSI 44 for the specific performance claims as verified and substantiated by test data. These models are efficiency rated. The efficiency rating is valid only at the stated salt dose and
maximum service flow rate. They have a demand initiated regeneration (D.I.R.) feature that complies with specific performance specifications intended to minimize the amount of regenerant brine and water used in their
operation. These softeners have a rated softener efficiency of not less than 3350 grains of total hardness exchange per pound of salt (based on sodium chloride) and shall not deliver more salt than their listed ratings. The
rated salt efficiency is measured bylaboratory tests described in NSF/ANSI Standard 44. These tests represent the maximum possible efficiency that the systems can achieve. Operational efficiency is the actual efficiency
after the system has been installed. It is typically less than the efficiency due to individual application factors including water hardness, water usage, and other contaminants that reduce the softener’s capacity. These
systems are not intended for use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system. For best results, use plain, white block salt. Refer to Installation/
operation manual and warranty for further details on installation, parts and service, maintenance and further restrictions or limitations to the use of the product.
HOW YOUR WATER CONDITIONER WORKS
Water softeners remove hardness in the water by exchanging particles in the water, or ions. They remove hard ions such as calcium and magnesium in the water by trading it
for sodium ions producing soft water. Unlike the calcium and magnesium, sodium stays dissolved in water and does not form a scale. Sodium also does not interfere with the
cleaning action of soaps. The sodium is released by a charged resin contained in the softener, this resin also traps the calcium and magnesium ions. Eventually this resin releases
all of its sodium and has filled up with other ions, so it then must be regenerated. Regeneration is accomplished by washing the resin with a salt saturated brine solution that
removes the calcium and magnesium while replenishing the sodium. This is why the softener requires a brine tank and salt. The water softener can run for days before running
out of sodium, and when it does, the sodium is replenished in only a matter of a few hours
When using a softener to remove both hardness and dissolved iron it is important that it regenerates more frequently than ordinarily would be calculated for hardness removal
alone. Although many factors and formulas have been used to determine this frequency, it is recommended that the softener be regenerated when it has reached 50–75% of the
calculated hardness alone capacity. This will minimize the potential for bed fouling.
If you are operating a water softener on clear water iron, regular resin bed cleaning is needed to keep the bed from coating with iron. Even when operating a softener on water
with less than the maximum of dissolved iron, regular cleanings should be performed. Clean every six months or more often if iron appears in your conditioned water supply. Use
resin bed cleaning compounds carefully following the directions on the container.
Precision Brining:
Precision brining means that your conditioner calculates the exact
amount of brine required to regenerate saving up to 30% more salt
When your conditioner regenerates it will display 2 numbers for capacity 1 will be total
capacity the other will be 70 % of capacity. The unit counts down to the end of the
70% then calculates how much of the 30% you used (your reserve) it then adjusts the
brine amount accordingly and regenerates that evening. This feature means that your
capacity will always be different after every regeneration therefore maximizing your
salt use.
BRINE PRE-FILL% : This is the percentage of the water that will be added to the brine
tank after a regeneration. The default is 70%. The remaining amount of water will be
added just prior to the regeneration and will be proportional to the amount of capacity
left in the system.
Soft Water Recharge for High Usage: Should you reach the 70% capacity and
then go beyond the 30% before it is time to regenerate the conditioner will do a quick
regeneration to restore limited capacity to get it through the remainder of the day.
System Refresh: If you are away for an extended period of time the Conditioner
does a refresh cycle to prevent any chance of bacterial growth or stagnation inside the
conditioner.
Scrolling Diagnostics: By pressing any button to light the LCD display the unit will
automatically begin scrolling important information for diagnostic purposes
Date and Time
Total Gallons and Remaining Gallons
Number of People:
in the household as programmed at install
Reserve Capacity : calculated as 75 gallons per person
Estimated Days to Next: estimation of days to the next regeneration based on current
consumption, hardness and capacity
Last Regeneration: the date of the last regeneration cycle by the conditioner
Total Regenerations: this is the total number of times the conditioner has regener-
ated
Total Gallons: total gallons treated by the conditioner
Over Run Total: – how many times Soft water recharge was required due to high
usage
Current Flow Rate: will only display if treated water is running otherwise it would
read 0
Peak Flow:
maximum flow that has gone through the conditioner.
Delayed Regen OFF: – generally only used after servicing.
Regen Time: This is the time of day that the conditioner is scheduled to regenerate
Refill Time: The current calculated refill time for makeup brine (displays up to 70% of
total brine required)
Valve Mode: current valve setting EG. Softener UF (up flow)
