ADDING MINERAL... NEUTRALIZER FILTER
The neutralite minera_ is slowly dissolved to neutral-
ize acid in the water (see page 12)_ ff the filter was
never serviced, all the mineral would dissolve_ How
fast itdissolves depends on how much water is used,
the pH of the water, and other supply conditions.
Add new mineral (see below) about 6 months after
installation. Before you add new mineral, use a yard
stick or tape rule to measure the distance down to the
of the mineral bed (figure 6). if the measurement
is 32" or less, over haft of the mineral bed remains.
You could wait 9 or 10 months before adding mineral
the next time. However, if distance to the bed is 38"
or more, _ess than 1/4 of the mineral remains and
adding more minera_ every 5 months may be better.
Use this measurement procedure each time, to
adjust your mineral adding intervals to changing
water use patterns and other conditions.
