Specifications & Performance Claims
This model is efficiency rated. The efficiency rating is valid only at the minimum salt dose. The softener has a
demand initiated regeneration (D.I.R) feature that complies with specific performance specifications intended to mini-
mize the amount of regenerant brine and water used in its operation.
This softener has a rated softener efficiency of not less than 3,350 grains of total hardness exchange per pound of salt
(based on sodium chloride) and shall not deliver more salt than its listed rating or be operated at a sustained maxi-
mum service flow rate greater than its listed rating. This softener has been proven to deliver soft water for at least ten
continuous minutes at the rated service flow rate. The rated salt efficiency is measured by laboratory tests described
in NSF/ANSI Standard 44. These tests represent the maximum possible efficiency that the system can achieve.
Operational efficiency is the actual efficiency after the system has been installed. It is typically less than the rated
efficiency, due to individual application factors including water hardness, water usage, and other contaminants that
reduce a softener's capacity.

* Capacity to reduce clear water iron is substantiated by laboratory test data. State of Wisconsin
requires additional treatment if water supply contains clear water iron exceeding 5 ppm.
** Canada working pressure limits: 1.4 - 7.0 kg/cm
*** Intermittent flow rate does not represent the maximum service flow rate used for detemining the
softener's rated capacity and efficiency. Continuous operation at flow rates greater than the serv-
ice flow rate may affect capacity and efficiency performance.
This system conforms to NSF/ANSI Standard 44 for the specific performance claims as verified and
substantiated by test data.
