CARE OF YOUR SOFTENER

3B. KEEPING THE WATER SOFTENER CLEAN

COVERS

NOTE:

To keep your new Sears water softener looking nice, apply a coat of paste wax and repeat once a year. When dusty, wipe it with a damp cloth to keep it sparkling.

Never use cleaners having ammonia or abrasives. They may scratch and dull the surface.

NOZZLE AND VENTURI

A clean nozzle and venturi (FIG. 10) is a must for the softener to work right. This small unit moves brine from the salt storage tank to the resin tank during regeneration. If it becomes plugged with sand, silt, dirt, etc., the softener will not work and you will get hard water.

To get to the nozzle and venturi, remove the softener top cover. Be sure the softener is in service cycle (no water pressure at nozzle and venturi). Then, holding the housing tightly with 1 hand, turn the cap off. DO NOT LOSE THE LARGE OARING SEAL. Lift out the screen support and screen, then the nozzle and venturi. Wash and rinse the parts in warm water until clean. If needed, use a small brush to remove iron or dirt. Also check and clean the gasket.

Carefully replace all parts in the correct order. Lubricate the oAring seal with silicone grease or Vaseline and place in position. Install and tighten the cap, by hand only. Do not over￿tighten and break the cap or housing.

IRON FROM THE RESIN BED

Your water softener takes hardness minerals (calcium and magnesium) out of the water. Also, it can control some •clear water" iron. See maximum allowed in the specifications on page 18. With clear water iron, water from a faucet is clear when first put into a glass. After 15 to 30 minutes, the water begins to cloud or turn rust colored. A water softener WILL NOT remove any iron which makes the water cloudy or rusty as it comes from the faucet (called red water iron). To take red water iron out of water, or over the maximum of clear

water iron, an iron filter or other equipment is needed. Your local Sears store has trained people to help you with iron water problems.

If your water supply has clear water iron, even though less than the maximum allowed, regular resin bed cleaning is needed. Sears has resin bed cleaner, Stock No. 42A34426 for this. Clean the bed at least every 6 months. If iron shows up in the soft water before 6 months, clean more often. Printed instructions are on the resin bed cleaner bottle.
