BEFORE INSTALLING CHECKS & TESTS

Your water supply needs to be checked for chemical analysis, water pressure and water flow rate. To accom- plish this, complete the following steps:

Check Water's Chemical Analysis: Sears sells a com- plete line of water treating equipment to correct various water problems. To be sure you have the proper type and size equipment, You must have your water tested. Your Sears store can give you a water test results for hardness, iron and acidity, and tell you what equipment you need. Simply take at least a 4 oz. sample of your water to Sears, and they will test it while you wait. If you need help to get your water tested, or if you have other questions about your water, ask at your Sears store.

NOTE: Add these readings to the Facts and Figure table on page 3.

Check Your Water Pressure: For your softener to work right, a water pressure of no lower than 20 pounds per square inch (psi) is needed in the house water pipes. The highest pressure allowed in the water pipes is 125 psi. If pressure is over 125 psi, buy and install a pres- sure reducing valve in the water inlet pipe to the soften- er.

NOTE: If water pressure during the day is 100 psi or more, pressure during the night may go over 125 psL

Adding a pressure reducing valve may reduce the flow.

NOTE: Add these readings to the Facts and Figure table on page 3.

If you have a well water system, look at the pressure gauge to find the water pressure. Call your local water department if you have city water. They will tell you what the water pressure is where you live.

NOTE: Add these readings to the Facts and Figure table on page 3.

Check your water flow rate: A water flow of at least 3 gallons per minute is needed. A lower flow will keep your softener from working as well as it should. Complete the following steps to make an easy check of your flow rate.

1.Fully open two cold water faucets close to the point water enters the house.

2.With both faucets open, fill a gallon container at one faucet while looking at a watch or clock to see how many seconds it takes.

3.Empty the container and go to the second faucet (be sure BOTH faucets are still on). Fill the gallon container at the second faucet and see how many seconds it takes.

4.Turn off both faucets. Now add the number of seconds it took to fill the container at both faucets.

5.A total of 90 seconds, or less, means the system flow rate is good.

NOTE: Add these readings to the Facts and Figure table on page 3.

NOTE: Codes in the state of Massachusetts require installation by a licensed plumber. For installation,

use plumbing code 248CMR of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
