NOTE: Clear area along wall where PVC drain line will be run to floor drain. KineticoPRO does not recommend running flexible tubing across floor or along walls, as it may be kicked out of discharge point at floor drain, or line may become pinched resulting in improper backwashing. - Page 15 Running drain line higher than 10 feet will inhibit the ability of the venturi to draw brine. In KineticoPRO Softeners, the brine drum mixes and stores a solution of salt for regeneration of the softener media. During the brine rinse cycle, this solution is drawn from the brine drum and through the media to regenerate it.
