SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
::Ji:: Check and complg with gour state and local codes.
You must follow these guidelines.
::Ji:: Use care when handling the water softening
sgstem. Do not turn upside down, drop, drag
or set on sharp protrusions.
?_:Water softening sgstems 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 on alternative
to sodium chloride in your softener.
?_:The water softening sgstem works on 24 volt-60 Hz
electrical power onlg. Be sure to use only the
included transformer.
::Ji:: Use clean water softening salts onlg, at least 99.5%
pure. NUGGET,PELLETor coarse SOLARsalts are
recommended. Do not use rock, block, granulated
or ice cream making salts. Theg contain dirt and
sediments, or mush and cake, and will create
maintenance problems.
::J_:: Keep the salt hole cover in place on the softener
unless servicing the unit or refilling with salt.
WARN ING: DO not use with water that
is microbiologicallg unsafe or of unknown qualitg
without adequate disinfection before or after the
sgstem.
iJi:: T ransformer must be plugged into an indoor
120 volt, grounded outlet onlg.
PROPERINSTALLATION
This water softening system must be properlg installed and located in accordance with the
Installation Instructions before it is used.
?_: I nstall or store where it will not be exposed to
temperatures below freezing or exposed to ang
tgpe of weather. Water freezing in the sgstem will
break it. Do not attempt to treat water over 100°R
::Ji:: Do not install in direct sunlight. Excessive sun or

parts remaining after the installation could be
a choke hazard.
The water softening sgstem requires a minimum
water flow of three gallons per minute at the inlet.
Maximum allowable inlet water pressure is 125 psi.
If dagtime pressure is over 80 psi, nighttime pressure
mag exceed the maximum. Use a pressure reducing
valve to reduce the flow if necessarg.
