Regeneration Chart

This makes it easy for you to pick the best regeneration and fill time setting to use.

Step 1—Go down the side of the chart to the number of persons in your family, or the number of people in the house using water.

Step 2—Across the top of the chart, find the column listing the grains per gallon hardness of your water, or hardness number for iron water.

Step 3—Read across and down the chart to find the point where Steps 1 and 2 meet. At this point, suggested days to regenerate, and fill cycle minutes needed are shown.
