How Your Water Conditioner Works (cont.) When using a softener to remove both hardness and dissolved iron it is important that it regenerates more frequently than ordinarily would be calculated for hardness removal alone.

Your Culligan water conditioner consists of three basic components, (A) the Control Valve, (B) the Mineral Tank, and (C) the Brine System. A. The exclusive Culligan control valve automatically performs a variety of tasks that are necessary for the proper operation of your water conditioner. These tasks, commonly referred to as cycles or operating positions, are: SERVICE, REGENERATION, AND BRINE REFILL.
