The Culligan Platinum Series 10" Water Softener with Soft-Minder Meter is tested and certified by WQA against
NSF/ANSI Standard 44 for the effective reduction of hardness (calcium and magnesium) as verified and substantiated
by test data.
An efficiency rated water softener is a DIR softener which also complies with specific performance specifications
intended to minimize the amount of regenerant brine and water used in its operation. Efficiency rated water softeners
shall have a rated salt efficiency of not less than 3350 grains of total hardness exchange per pound of salt (based on
NaCl equivalency) (477 grams of total hardness exchange per kilogram of salt), and shall not deliver more salt than its
listed rating. The efficiency is measured by a laboratory test described in NSF/ANSI 44. The test represents the maxi-
mum possible efficiency the system can achieve. Operational efficiency is the actual efficiency achieved after the system
has been installed. It is typically less than the efficiency due to individual application factors including water hardness,
water usage, and other contaminants that reduce the softener's capacity.
Refer to the Specifications, Familiarization and Warranty section of this Owner's Guide for more specific product infor-
mation. To avoid contamination from improper handling and installation, your system should only be installed and
serviced by your Culligan Man. Performance will vary based on local water conditions. The substances reduced by this
system are not necessarily in your water.
Culligan water softeners are designed to work with any salt of good quality, although it is recommended that you ask
your local Culligan Man for his suggestion on the best type and grade of salt to use in this softener.
NOTICE: This softener is not intended to be used for treating water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown
quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
† The efficiency rated dosage is only valid at the 6lb. salt dosage for 10"models.
