Preventative Maintenance

Suggested Preventative Maintenance Inspection Schedule
The Culligan HE 1.5 commercial water filter has been designed to provide a good, consistent service life. Routinely
inspecting the system may help avoid potentially costly breakdowns related to circumstances outside of the control of the
dealer and/or user.
Component Suggested Inspection
Entire System At Startup, after infrequent use (idle
for one week or more) or every 3–6
months if on a private water supply.
Backwash Flow Every 12 months or every time ser-
Controller vice is performed on the system.
HE 1.5 Valve Every 6–12 months or every time
service is performed on the system.
Application Problems
Many service problems are not due to equipment malfunction, but rather to misapplication or environmental conditions.
The "Performance Specifications" on page 4
If the water characteristics fall outside these limits, additional water treatment equipment may be required, or the water
characteristics should be brought inside the limits. The system flow rates and exchange capacities are also listed.
Flow Rates: the backwash should not differ from those in
percent.
If there are no apparent general problems or environmental problems, refer to

Reason for Maintenance
On private supplies, the appearance of off-tastes and odors,
particularly if musty or "rotten egg" (caused by harmless sul-
fate-reducing bacteria) may indicate a need for the system to
be sanitized.
