Before You Start - GE GXSF30V Owner's Manual And Installation Instructions

Before you start.
BEFORE YOU START
The water softener requires a minimum water flow of 3 gallons per minute at the inlet. Maximum
allowable inlet water pressure is 125 psi. If daytime pressure is over 80 psi, nighttime pressure may
exceed the maximum. Use a pressure reducing valve if necessary (Adding a pressure reducing valve
may reduce the flow). If your home is equipped with a back flow preventer, an expansion tank must
be installed in accordance with local codes and laws.
The water softener uses a direct plug-in external power supply (included). Be sure to use the included
power supply and plug it into a nominal 120V, 60 cycle household outlet that is in a dry location only,
grounded and properly protected by an over current device such as a circuit breaker or fuse.
Do not use this system to treat water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without
adequate disinfection upstream or downstream of the system.
