  • Page 3: Introduction

    Introduction Read this Manual First Before you operate the Culligan® Top Mount (CTM) Water Softeners, read this manual to become familiar with the device and its capabilities. The Culligan CTM Water Softeners are tested and certified by WQA against NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 and NSF/ANSI 372.
  • Page 4 Be sure to check and follow the applicable plumbing codes and ordinances when installing this equipment. Local codes may prohibit the discharge of sanitizing or descaling solutions to drain. Use protective clothing and proper face or eye protection equipment when handling chemicals or power tools.

    ²The Suggested Progressive Flow Trip Point is simply a suggested flow rate at which point an additional tank will be brought on line if facility flow demand meets this rate. The Culligan GBE Controller will not remove a tank brought on line by attaining the Trip Point unless the flow is under the Trip Point amount for a 30-second period.
  • Page 7 ³Refill flow rates based on 60 psi inlet/influent pressure and eductor combinations specified per Table 5 on page 20 brine refill flow control inserts specified on page 21. The use of the standard or fast refill brine refill flow control insert options will change the brine refill times (see Table 8 on page 46).
