Installation -Pre-Installation Check List- A water test should always be performed in order to determine total water hardness (in gpg) and total dissolved iron (in parts per million - ppm). This is critical for proper equipment selection, sizing and for determining the pro- gram for regeneration frequency.

Start Up Procedure 1. Set time of day. 2. Set a.m. or p.m. 3. Set water hardness in grains per gallon (gpg). Note: If the water contains iron and / or manganese, multiply the total parts per million (ppm) by “four” (4) and then add to the grains per gallon (gpg) of hardness.
Start Up Procedure - Final Check - 1. Be certain the bypass valve is in the SERVICE position. 2. Make sure the power supply is connected to an uninterrupted 115-volt outlet. 3. Check that the time of day is set 4.
