Care of Your System
To retain the attractive appearance of your new water softener, clean occasionally with mild
soap solution. Do not use abrasive cleaners, ammonia or solvents. Never subject your sof-
tener to freezing or to temperatures above 100°F.
Resin Cleaner
An approved resin cleaner must be used on a regular basis if your water supply contains
iron. The amount of resin cleaner and frequency of use is determined by the quantity of
iron in your water (consult your local representative or follow the directions on the resin
cleaner package).
Care is taken at the factory to keep your water softener clean and sanitary. Materials used
to make the softener will not infect or contaminate your water supply, and will not cause
bacteria to form or grow. However, during shipping, storage, installing and operating, bac-
teria could get into the softener. For this reason, sanitizing as follows is suggested when in-
stalling.
Sani-System Liquid Sanitizer Concentrate
Item# 80030021—Softener Sanitizer 0.25 fl.oz (24 Pack)
1. Be sure to complete all installation steps, including programming.
2. For effective and complete sanitization, Sani-System Liquid Sanitizer Concentrate is rec-
ommended. Pour one 0.25 fl. Oz. package into the brine well located in the cabinet or
brine tank. (Alternative use 3/4 oz of common 5.25% household bleach)
3. Start an immediate regeneration. (See page 11)
4. The Softener Sanitizer Solution is drawn into and through the water softener to sanitize
it. This sanitizing regeneration is over in about two hours. Then, soft water is available
for your use.
NOTE: Sanitizing is recommended by the Water Quality Association for disinfecting. On
some water supplies, they suggest periodic sanitizing.
