 – 

Only use tablet or pellet salt in your softener!

User information

AFTER INSTALLATION

Now your Tapworks water softener is installed, you can start to enjoy the 

benefits of soft water. Your Tapworks water softener is automatic, there is 

nothing you need to do but keep it topped up with tablet/pellet salt.

DO NOT USE GRANULAR OR BLOCK SALT. (See Salt below.)

Softened water will gradually replace the hard water in the storage tank 

over a period of normally 7 days. However, this can take longer in larger 

houses.

Test the water hardness from the softened supply using the test kit supplied. 

If within one or two drops the sample remains a blue colour this indicates 

soft water.

WARRANTY CERTIFICATE

Please complete the customer warranty certificate or register on line for 

your 2 year parts and labour warranty.

At the end of your warranty we will contact you regarding our optional 

service contracts.

if you have any queries about your water softener.

THE USE OF SOFTENED WATER
Washing machines –

 you will need much less soap powder. In most 

washes one tablespoon will be sufficient. Too much lather and clothes will 

not rinse properly.

Dishwashers –

 you will no longer need to fill your unit with salt, as this 

was used to soften the water in the dishwasher.

Cleaning sinks, baths and basins –

 you will find that your cleaning 

chores are reduced, and you will use less cleaning product, as cleaning 

becomes a quick wipe around. Occasionally ‘spotting’ may result but this 

is easily rinsed off and nothing to worry about.

Hard water – 

one household tap and any garden taps should be left on 

a hard water supply. Softened water contains a small amount of sodium. 

In four pints of softened water the sodium content is about the same as in 

¼ pint of milk. If you are concerned about the quality of your drinking 

water supply ask your local stockist about the benefits of a Tapworks 

Drinking Water System. Drinking softened water is not recommended for 

people on low sodium diets or babies on formula feed.

Steam irons/car batteries –

 only use distilled or deionised water, not 

softened water.

Copper staining –

 this can be caused by new pipework and should 

disappear after a short time, simply wipe away any deposit.  

If this persists, poor earthing may be allowing electrolytic corrosion - 

contact an electrical engineer.
