97WB-AF Acid Neutralizing Filter
S t art-Up Procedures
14
Your WaterBoss Acid Neutralizing Filter may be programmed to regenerate every one or two
days. You select the frequency based on local conditions. You will have to set the time of
day and the desired time of regeneration by following the procedure outlined on page 17 of
this manual.
IMPORTANT : Because the WB-AF is capable of elevating a low pH condition in the water, it
is important that the filter be applied within the operating limits outlined in this manual.
Failure to comply with these specifications will cause poor backwash results and possibly a
malfunction of the control valve. Additionally, it will be necessary to add two to five pounds of
the neutralizing media to the filter tank annually. The media slowly dissolves and thereby cor-
rects the corrosive characteristic of the water. The hardness will increase by two to four
grains per gallon. Check the total hardness of the water after start-up of the neutralizer and
set your water softener accordingly.
INSTALLATION TIP : Before placing this filter in service, it will be necessary to backwash the
filter to remove media fines in the filter bed. To backwash the filter, push and hold the regen-
erate button until the controller indicates cycle 01 (flashing). After 7 minutes, the controller
will return to the service mode and display 01 or 02 (solid). Retest the hardness before the
water enters the softener and reset the hardness setting of the softener. Typically, hardness
will increase by two to four grains after passing through the neutralizer.
NOTE : This filter should be installed after the pressure tank or water meter, before the water-
heater or any WaterBoss water softener appliance unless otherwise recommended. (See
illustration). A minimum 3/4” pipe is required for proper function of the filter. It is also impor-
tant to examine the inlet piping to make sure the pipe is not plugged with lime or iron. If the
piping is plugged, it must be cleaned or replaced.
