Care and cleaning of the water softening system.

Checking the Salt Storage Level and Refilling

Brine (salt dissolved in water) is needed for each and every

regeneration. The water for making brine is metered into the salt

storage area by the water softening system valve and timer.

However,

you must keep the tank full of salt.

When to refill with salt:

Check the salt level a few weeks after you

install the water softening system and every week after that. Refill

when the brine tank is from 1/3 to 1/2 full. Never allow the water

softening system to use all the salt before you refill it. Without salt,

you will soon have hard water.

Use clean water softening salts only, at least 99.5% pure. NUGGET,

PELLET or coarse SOLAR salts are recommended.

Do not use rock,

block, granulated or ice cream making salts.

They contain dirt and

sediments, or mush and cake, and will create maintenance

problems.

CAUTION: Water softening salt with iron removing additives:

Some salts

have an additive to help the water softening system handle iron in

the water supply. Although this additive may help to keep the water

softening system resin clean, it may also release corrosive fumes that

weaken and shorten the life of some water softening system parts.

Do not

use salt with iron removing additives.

Cleaning Iron Out of the Water Softening System

Your water softening system takes hardness minerals (calcium and

magnesium) out of the water. Also, it can control some (see

Specification Guidelines

section) “clear water” iron. With clear water

iron, water from a faucet is clear when first put into a glass. After 15

to 30 minutes, the water begins to cloud or turn rust colored. A

water softening system

will not

remove any iron that makes the

water cloudy or rusty as it comes from the faucet (called red water

iron). To take red water iron out of water, or over the maximum of

clear water iron, an iron filter or other equipment is needed.

If your water supply has cle

ar water iron, periodic resin bed cleaning

is needed. Clean the bed at least every six months, or more often if

iron appears in the soft water between treatments, using a resin bed

cleaner. Follow directions on the resin bed cleaner container. Resin

bed cleaner is available from most hardware stores.
