2020c Compact Water Softener

Maintenance Tips

My system seems to be regenerating more frequently. Is this normal?
Remember, your Kinetico 2020c is demand–operated, adjusting automati-
cally to your water usage. If you do not think that your water usage has
increased due to extra house guests, additional laundry or some other
reason, check for any leaky plumbing, dripping taps or running toilets, all
of which can contribute to more frequent regenerations.
My water doesn't seem soft. How can I be sure that my system is regenerating
properly?
Be sure that the water supply to the softener is not by–passed. Follow the
instructions on page 11 to manually regenerate the softener tanks. If the
unit does not begin advancing to the next regeneration automatically,
please contact your local Kinetico dealer for further assistance.
I can hear my Kinetico system running or regenerating during the day. My
old softener only used to run at night. Is this normal?
Single tank, electric water softeners tend to be set to regenerate at night be-
cause of the unavailability of soft water during the regeneration process.
Unlike traditional water softeners, Kinetico systems operate on demand
based on your water usage, without timers or electronics. So your system
regenerates whenever necessary, at any time of day. And Kinetico's twin
cylinder design allows one tank to provide treated water while the other
regenerates, so you'll never be without soft water.
If at any time you feel your Kinetico 2020c requires service, put the system
in by–pass and call your local Kinetico dealer.
Note: This system conforms to NSF/ANSI Standard 44 for the specific performance claims
as verified and substantiated by test data.The system is not intended to be used for treating
water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection
before or after the system.
