WATER SOFTENER START-UP

1E. FILL THE STORAGE TANK WITH SALT

Brine (salt dissolved in water) is needed for each FIG. 3 ADD SALT and every regeneration. The water for making

brine is metered into the salt storage tank by the softener. However, you must keep the tank filled with salt.

Fill the tank with NUGGET or PELLET water softener salt. DO NOT use rock salts, as they have dirt and sediments that will stop the softener from working.

Before filling, be sure the brinewell cover is in place on the top of the brinewell. Salt storage capacity is shown on page 19. Be sure to set the salt monitor system (see page 10).

NOTES:

The salt monitor system page 10, is calibrated to the density of nugget or pellet water softener salt. The monitor will not work as accurately with other types of salt including rock and solar.

In humid areas, it is best to fill the storage tank
