Application & Operation

It is helpful to understand how your Culligan® HE Water Filter functions and know its capabilities and limitations. The following section provides a brief explanation of how your Culligan filter system operates and the future anticipated service requirements to keep your system functioning efficiently and effectively.

Cullar® Filter

HE Filters with Cullar D+ activated carbon media can reduce chlorine and associated tastes and odors. Some other tastes and odors associated with naturally occurring organics may also be removed. Cullar D+ media can temporarily reduce hydrogen sulfide levels but if hydrogen sulfide is constantly present in the water an odor reduction system specifically designed for hydrogen sulfide reduction is necessary. Whenever the cause of an objectionable taste or odor has not been identified further water testing is required. Cullar D+ media should not be used with water that is of unknown microbiologically quality, is unsafe or contains nuisance bacteria without adequate chemical disinfection with chlorine prior to the Cullar filter system. Cullar D+ filters only require automatic reconditioning cycles to maintain system effectiveness. The Cullar D+ filter media can last for several years in many applications but will eventually need replacement by your local Culligan dealer when it loses its ability to satisfactorily reduce chlorine and its associated taste and odor.

Filter-Clear ®
HE Filter-Clear Water Filters use multi-layered media capable of reducing particulate matter down to 15-microns in particle size. The stratified layers of progressively finer filter media allow filtration through the entire depth of the media bed. This method of filtration minimizes the pressure loss associated with filters that use only one grade of filter media. The Filter- Clear will not effectively remove colloidal matter and turbidity below the micron rating, the color caused by organics, or dissolved solids.

Common applications follow:

• Reduction of suspended matter in the water.
• Reduction of particulate matter, such as clay, mud, and fine sediment.
• Prefiltration to remove oxidized iron prior to a water softening system.
• Reduction of light sand and sediments.
• After a retention tank when a Cul-Cleer® system with chemical feed is used for oxidation, coagulation, or flocculation.

Filtr-Cleaner filters only require automatic reconditioning cycles to maintain effectiveness. The Filter-Clear media can last for several years in most applications. If pressure loss increases over time and can’t be resolved by a reconditioning cycle the filter media may need replacement by your local Culligan dealer.

Cullneu® Filter

HE Water Filters with Cullneu Media can neutralize acidic water caused by low pH levels. HE Filters can be used on the water with a pH level from 5.2 to 6.8. Low pH levels are primarily caused by carbon dioxide in the water which forms carbonic acid. Carbonic acid can corrode copper piping resulting in blue/green staining, pipe damage, and pin-hole leaks. Other metals in the plumbing system can also be corroded and dissolved including brass, lead, and iron. Cullen media is a high-purity form of calcium carbonate that reacts with carbonic acid in the water to convert it to bicarbonate alkalinity. This increases the pH and alkalinity level of the water and reduces the potential for corrosion. If the pH level is between 5.0 and 6.0 then one part of Cullneu C media (magnesium oxide) should be mixed with 5 parts of Cullneu media to provide the additional neutralizing capability.

Cullen media is a sacrificial mineral and will dissolve into the water over time. During the neutralization process, some hardness is also added to the water. Cullen filters perform automatic reconditioning cycles to maintain effectiveness. Since Cullneu media is consumed in the neutralization process the media level in the filter tank will need to be periodically replenished by your Culligan dealer to ensure the proper level of pH elevation.

Care & Cleaning

Following these simple precautions will help assure continued trouble-free service and keep your Culligan Water Filter looking like new for years.

• Do not place heavy objects on top of the timer cover.
• Use only mild soap and warm water when cleaning the exterior of the system. Never use harsh, abrasive cleaning compounds or those which contain acid, such as vinegar, bleach, and similar products.
• Important: Protect your water filter and the entire drain line from freezing temperatures.

WARNING!
If your unit should freeze, do not attempt to disassemble it. Call your Culligan Dealer.

• Important: Culligan water filters are sold for use on potable water only. If at any time the water becomes contaminated, such as during a “boil water” advisory, the operation of the water filter should be discontinued until it is verified that the water is again potable. To do this, turn the blue knob in a clockwise position, then call your Culligan dealer to have your system sanitized before it is placed back into service.
• Should service, adjustment or trouble-shooting information be needed which is not covered in the Use and Care Guide, call your Culligan Dealer.

For parts and service availability please call your local independently operated Culligan dealer.
For your nearest Culligan dealer, call 800-285-5442.

When & How to Bypass Your System

Normally, all water except outside lines passes through the water filter. There are times when the water filter should be bypassed, using the Cul-Flo- Valv® Bypass, a 3-valve bypass, or remotely by the Culligan Connect App on your phone or tablet. You should bypass

1. If lines to outside faucets do not bypass the water filter, and you do not want to waste softened water on lawn sprinkling or other outside uses.
2. If you are going away on vacation and do not want the unit to recharge.

Bypass Valve

In the back of the Culligan water filter is a Cul-Flo-Valv® Bypass valve. To bypass the unit, turn the blue knob clockwise.
To return to softened water service, turn the blue knob counter-clockwise.

Bypassed
To BYPASS, turn the blue knob clockwise (see directional arrow on the end of knob) until the knob stops as shown in Figure 1.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!

Filter Water
To return to SERVICE, turn the blue knob counter-clockwise (see directional arrow on the end of knob) until the knob stops as shown in Figure 2. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!

Things to Check Before You Call For Service

If you unexpectedly experience a change in the quality of your water, make these simple checks before calling your Culligan dealer. One of the following conditions may be the reason for the change.

Important
If any of the following conditions is found, the water filter should be manually reconditioned according to instructions on “Reconditioning” on page 10 after you have corrected the problem.

Power Supply
Check your power supply cord. Is it plugged fully into the electric outlet? Be certain that the outlet is not controlled by a wall switch that has been turned off. Plugin the transformer then reset the conditioner to the correct time of day.

Tripped Circuit Breaker
Check the house circuit breaker panel. Reset a tripped circuit breaker.

Power Failure
Any interruption in your power supply or time change—such as daylight savings—will disrupt your filter’s regeneration schedule by causing the timer to run off schedule. Reset the timer to the correct time of day.

Bypass Valves
Check to see if they are in the proper position. Cul-Flo-Valve Bypass, if used, should be in the “Service” position (handle screwed out). If hand valves are used, see that inlet and outlet valve are opened and that the bypass valve is closed.

No Water
If you aren’t getting any water flow at all, make sure your water supply is working. Open a tap ahead of the conditioner (outside tap) to see if you have any water pressure. If you have water pressure, check the bypass valve. If it is in the Service position, put the system into bypass and call your Culligan dealer for service.

Increased Usage
Guests, family additions, new water-using appliances, etc., will result in more water usage and may require additional programming by your local Culligan dealer. Please contact your local Culligan dealer.

Outdoor Electrical and Power Supply

• The Installer should set the Media tank on a solid, level surface near plumbing, drain, and electrical connections. The Media tank and plumbing should be secured so the system can’t be knocked over.
• The customer should provide a GFCI electrical outlet suitable for outdoor use that is NOT controlled by a switch that can be turned off accidentally.
• For outdoor installation, only use an outdoor-rated power supply.
• power school MUST be mounted on the wall at least 1 foot above ground level, See Figure 3.
