IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
A copper or
galvanized cold water pipe may be used to
ground electrical outlets in the home. Failure to
maintain this ground path may result in an
electric shock hazard. If the cold water pipe is
used to ground electric outlets, please refer to
Installing the Ground Wire section before
cutting the pipe.
Check and comply with your state and local
codes. You must follow these guidelines.
Use care when handling the water softening
system. Do not turn upside down, drop, drag
or set on sharp protrusions.
Water softening systems using sodium
chloride (salt) for recharge add sodium to the
water.
Persons on sodium restricted diets should
consider the added sodium as part of their
overall intake. Potassium chloride can be
used as an alternative to sodium chloride in
your softener.
Use only lead-free solder and flux for all
sweat-solder connections, as required by
state and federal codes.
This water softening system must be properly
installed and located in accordance with the
installation instructions before it is used.
Keep the salt hole cover in place on the
softener unless servicing the unit or refilling
with salt.
WARNING
Do not use with
water that is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality without adequate disinfection
before or after the system.
WARNING
Discard all unused
parts and packaging material after installation.
Small parts remaining after the installation
could be a choke hazard.
The water softening system works on 24 volt-
60 Hz
electrical power only. Be sure to use
the included external power supply.
External power supply must be plugged into
an indoor 120 volt, grounded outlet only.
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. These types of salts may contain dirt
and sediments that might mush or cake,
creating maintenance issues for the water
softener.
Avoid installing in direct sunlight. Excessive
heat may cause distortion or other damage
to non-metallic parts.
If installing the water softener outdoors, do
not locate where it will be exposed to wet
weather, direct sunlight, extreme hot or cold
temperatures, or other forms of abuse.
WARNING
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to
minimize the risk of electric shock, property damage or personal injury.
In the state of California: You must turn
the Salt Efficiency Feature setting to ON.
This may initiate more frequent recharges.
However it will operate at 4,000 grains per
pound of salt or higher. To turn on the Salt
Efficiency Feature, follow the instructions in
the “Salt Saver” section of this manual
In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts,
Plumbing Code 248 CMR shall be adhered
to. Consult with your licensed plumber.
