THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW :
1. Water Softener resin should last between 15 -20 years. Below is the procedure on replacing the resin:
a. Disconnect the Control Head from your tap water plumbing. Unscrew the Control Head
from the water softener and empty the resin into a trash can. (You will need more than
one person to do this).
b. Once the resin is removed, wash the tank clean and insert the distributor
tube. (The distributor tube should be placed in the softener or carbon
tank with the lower collector screen basket end down). Turn the tube a
couple times to make sure that the bottom basket seats properly in the
bottom of the tank. Make sure the distributor
tube is in the tank BEFORE YOU ADD THE
RESIN or CARBON!
c. Cover the open upper end of the distributor
tube with tape or a cap (as shown) to keep
any resin from falling into the distributor tube
while pouring the resin into the tank.
Remove
the tape after filling the tank.
d. Place the funnel into the softener tank (as shown), and slowly pour the
resin into the softener tank.
CAUTION: If you purchased a water softener that came with a bag
containing gravel, you must add the gravel first before the
resin. You will need enough gravel to completely bury the
collector screen.
e. Be careful to keep the distributor tube centered as best you can, while filling. Once
the filling of the softener tank is completed, carefully remove the tape or cap from the
distributor tube. Do not pull upwards on the distributor tube.
(If you do pull on the tube
you will have to reposition it by blowing compressed air in the hole and pushing it back
down to position).
f. The control valve head can now be screwed back onto the softener tank. Be sure the large
O - ring is in place, and lubricated. As you start to screw the control valve onto the tank,
make sure the hole in the center of the control valve fits over the distributor tube (page
13). The control valve should be hand tightened, snug and tight to eliminate a possible
leaks.
NOTE: Our Water Softeners do not come with a gravel bed because the tank is set up as
downflow. Downflow means that the water passes through the resin first and is
sucked up through the distributor tube.
