System Saver

Installation & Operation Manual

= The water softener requires a minimum water flow of 3 gallons per minute at the inlet. Maximum allowable inlet

water pressure is 125 psi. If daytime pressure is over 80 psi, nighttime pressure may exceed the maximum. Use

a pressure reducing valve if necessary (Adding a pressure reducing valve may reduce the flow). If your home is

equipped with a back flow preventer, an expansion tank must be installed in accordance with local codes and

laws.

= The water softener works on 28V DC electrical power, supplied by a direct plug-in power supply (included). Be

sure to use the included power supply and plug it into a nominal 120V, 60 Hz household outlet that is in a dry

location only, grounded and properly protected by an overcurrent device such as a circuit breaker or fuse.

= Do not use this system to treat water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate dis-

infection upstream or downstream of the system.

European Directive 2002/96/EC requires all electrical and electronic equipment to be disposed of accord-

ing to Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) requirements. This directive or similar laws are

in place nationally and can vary from region to region. Please refer to your state and local laws for prop-

er disposal of this equipment.

Water Conditioning Information

Iron

Iron in water can cause stains on clothing and plumb-

ing fixtures. It can negatively affect the taste of food,

drinking water, and other beverages. Iron in water is

measured in parts per million (ppm). The total* ppm of

iron, and type or types*, is determined by chemical

analysis. Four different types of iron in water are:

= Ferrous (clear water) iron

= Ferric (red water) iron

= Bacterial and organically bound iron

= Colloidal and inorganically bound iron (ferrous or

ferric)

Ferrous (clear water) iron is soluble and dissolves in

water. This water softener will reduce moderate

amounts of this type of iron (see specifications).**

Ferrous (clear water) iron is usually detected by taking

a sample of water in a clear bottle or glass.

Immediately after taking, the sample is clear. As the

water sample stands, it gradually clouds and turns

slightly yellow or brown as air oxidizes the iron. This

usually occurs in 15 to 30 minutes.

When using the softener to reduce Ferrous (clear

water) iron, add 5 grains to the hardness setting for

every 1 ppm of Ferrous (clear water) iron. See "Set

Water Hardness Number" section.

Ferric (red water), and bacterial and organically bound

irons are insoluble. This water softener will not

remove ferric or bacterial iron. This iron is visible

immediately when drawn from a faucet because it has

oxidized before reaching the home. It appears as

small cloudy yellow, orange, or reddish suspended

particles. After the water stands for a period of time,

the particles settle to the bottom of the container.

Generally these irons are removed from water by filtra-

tion. Chlorination is also recommended for bacterial

iron.

Colloidal and inorganically bound iron is of ferric or fer-

rous form that will not filter or exchange out of water.

This water softener will not remove colloidal iron. In

some instances, treatment may improve colloidal iron

water. Colloidal iron water usually has a yellow

appearance when drawn. After standing for several

hours, the color persists and the iron does not settle,

but remains suspended in the water.

Sediment

Sediment is fine, foreign material particles suspended

in water. This material is most often clay or silt.

Extreme amounts of sediment may give the water a

cloudy appearance, and may require a sediment filter

be installed upstream of the water softener.

* Water may contain one or more of the four types of

iron and any combination of these. Total iron is the

sum of the contents.

** Capacity to reduce clear water iron is substantiated

by WQA test data.
