2B. SOFT WATER SERVICE AND REGENERATION

AUTOMATIC BYPASS

During the brining, brine rinse and backwash cycles

of regeneration, hard water goes through the

softener valve and to the house pipes. If a faucet is

opened, hard water is there ff)r your needs. However, you should not use HOT water, if possible,

because the water heater will refill with hard water.

The softener regenerates from 2:00 AM to about 4:00 AM, (you can change this time.., see page 7). In most

homes, 2-4 AM is a time when not much water is used, if any.

If you get up early in the morning and you can hear

the softener regenerating, change the time setting.

Set the recharge start time to ]2:00 AM or ] :00 AM

(page 7). Then regeneration will start and end that much earlier and your water heater will not refill with hard water if a hot faucet is opened.

ELECTRONICS

Two m_dn parts of the softeneffs electronics are [] a WATER METER, and [] a COMPUTER.

[] WATER METER I The water meter is in the

softener valve outlet. As water flows through the

meter, it sends electric pulses to the computer. The

computer changes the pulses to a measure in gallons of water.

[] COMPUTER I The computer is part of the timer

circuit board. It is programmed to know the

softeneffs capacity (how many grains of hardness

minerals it will take out of the water before a

regeneration is needed). When starting the softener, page 7, you set it for the groins per gallon (gpg)

hardness of the water.

To find a regeneration pattern best for your needs,

the computer uses: (]) water usage from the meter,

(2) hardness setting, (3) softener capacity, and (4)

time since the last regeneration. The computer always adjusts this pattern to your water using habits.

It works to provide you with soft water for the

longest time, at the most efficient salt usage.

Softening capacity is used as hard water goes

through the softener and hardness minerals are

removed. When the computer determines that only enough capacity remains to provide soft water up to

the next regeneration starting time (2:00 AM, or as

otherwise se0, it will schedule a regeneration.

_CtlARGE TONIG[IT displays until the regenera-

tion begins. When the regeneration begins, TO-

NIGHT goes off and I_CI_IARGE NOW flashes during the 2 hour regeneration.
