TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE

Problem	Possible Solutions

LEVEL 1 — SEE HOMEOWNERS MANUAL

Recommended for the homeowner

| IMPORTANT

before attempting any troubleshooting be sure to test the water or have the water tested.

The tests should include the raw water, the hot treated water, and the cold treated water.

Delivers untreated water

| Bypass is closed bypassing raw water past the unit – Return bypass valve to the open position to service the home – See ‘Manual Water Bypass’
Bypass loop in the homes plumbing – Close outlet valve only on conditioner bypass, open nearest conditioned water line. If no water flow then there is not a bypass in the plumbing. If there is water flow then there is a hidden bypass in the plumbing (contact plumber).
No salt or low salt level – Fill salt to above the water level in the salt tank. Low salt will affect the conditioner’s capacity. – See ‘Maintenance’
Not programmed correctly for current application – Verify programming. Correct hardness level and amount of people in the home if necessary. – See ‘Start Up and Programming’
Excessive water in the salt tank| Refer to Maintenance, Cleaning the Injectors and Cleaning the Salt Tank

Not regenerating automatically, not metering water flow

| Check diagnostics for last regeneration – See How Your Conditioner Works

Open nearest conditioned water outlet and check if gallons is counting down, if not metering –

Contact authorized service representative

Not using salt| Injectors or injector screen plugged. Clean and or replace injectors and screen – See ‘Maintenance’

Salt Bridged in salt tank – See ‘Maintenance’

Not regenerating automatically – Alarms| Caused by a power outage or brown out during regeneration – unplug power for 30 seconds then

re-connect. If alarm continues – Contact your authorized service representative, if necessary.

Unit regenerates but does not use salt

| Clean and or replace injectors – See ‘Maintenance’
Drain line flow control is plugged – clean drain line flow control to ensure there are no kinks, or restrictions in the drain line.
Using too much salt or more salt than expected| Check programming – is the unit set properly for salt efficiency, is the programming correct for hardness and people – See ‘Start Up and Programming’

Alarms after regeneration

| Caused by a power outage or brown out during regeneration – unplug power for 30 seconds then reconnect if alarm continues – Contact your authorized service representative, if necessary.
Corroded or damaged rear circuit – replace circuit Contact your authorized service representative, if necessary.
4 D iscolor ed w a t er| Result of city / town supply being contaminated – check with local authority to see if there has been water main activity in your area. If there has been, manually regenerate the unit a couple of times in a row to clear the color. If there hasn’t been, Contact your authorized service representative if necessary.
Iron Bleed through – if there are small amounts of iron in your raw water supply eventually it will build up in the resin and could result in bleed through.

– review settings to compensate for iron in the water – See ‘Start Up and Programming’

– Contact your dealer or local plumbing supply store to obtain an approved resin cleaner. Use resin cleaner to clean the resin as directed. For permanent maintenance if required add in an automatic feeder – See Automatic Resin Cleaner Solution Feeder

Excessive pressure loss| Check unit specifications – peak or continuous service flow rates maybe exceeding capacity causing the unit to be restrictive due to size – See ‘Unit Specifications’ – Contact your dealer if necessary.

Excessive pressure loss

| Check unit specifications – peak or continuous service flow rates may be exceeding capacity caus- ing the unit to be restrictive due to size – See product specific information on warranty sheets

suplied with the unit. Contact Customer Service for clarification if this is suspected – 877-288-9888.

Upper distributor cone plugged with foreign material – remove valve, remove upper distributor cone and clean then replace and put valve back on unit.
Chlorine degradation of resin – excessive amounts of chlorine or chloramine can damage soften- ing resin and break it down causing excessive pressure loss – replace media bed and add in chlorine removal system to protect softener.

AUTOMATIC RESIN CLEANER SOLUTION FEEDER

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (OPTIONAL)

Resin Cleaner
An approved resin cleaner MUST be used on a regular basis if your water supply contains iron. The amount of resin cleaner and frequency of use is determined by the quantity of iron in your water (consult your local representative or follow the directions on the resin cleaner package).
Res-Up Feeders attach to your brine tank and automatically dispense the Res-Up cleaner into the brine solution where it cleans the resin during the regeneration cycle.
The feeder hooks onto the tube inside your brine tank and you just pour some chemical in it and your water conditioner should last significanly longer. A res-up feeder is essential if your raw water contains measurable amounts of iron.

Res-Up Feeder Bottle (Chemical sold Separately)

The 12 cc feeder (Part # 33010) is for conditioners up to 64,000 grains (2 ft3 of resin).
The 30 cc feeder (Part # 33018) is for larger conditioners over 64,000 grains.

Main Valve Settings

SOFTENER UPFLOW (UF)
This mode is for the operation of an up flow regenerating softener. The amount of salt used each regeneration is proportional to the capacity remaining in the system. A preset amount of brine (Default is 70%) is prepared after a normal regeneration. Just before a regeneration is scheduled, fresh water is added to the brine tank to “top off” the already prepared 70% of brine. The total amount of brine used to regenerate the system is proportional to the capacity remaining.
I.e. If the system has 10% capacity remaining, then only 90% of the salt dosage is needed to restore capacity to 100%. 70% of the brine is already prepared (and fully saturated) so 20% is added so that the total of 90% is prepared.
When a standard regeneration is started, the valve will move first to the refill position to add water to the brine tank. The amount of water added is equal to the calculated refill time for the salt dosage X Brine Tank Refill%. The valve then will return to service for the amount of Brine Make Time. When this is com-plete the valve will move to the Brine position.
The regeneration sequence is 1. BRINE MAKE (REFILL), 2. BRINE, 3. BACKWASH, 4 RINSE, 5. RE-FILL.

LANGUAGE
Current available language is English.

UNITS
Current unit of measure is gallons. Metric units may become available at a later date.

EFFICIENCY & CAPACITY SETTINGS
There are 3 settings to choose in Settings. High Efficiency, Standard Capacity, and Iron & Manganese. The values for these settings are set in the Factory Options and are used to calculate the system capacity and refill time.

REFILL
This value should match the BLFC flow washer. It is used to calculate the refill time.

BRINE MAKE TIME
This value is the time allowed for the salt to dissolve in the water to create the brine solution. The value is the amount of time ahead of the scheduled regeneration time that the water will be added to “top off” the brine already prepared in the brine tank.

BRINE PRE-FILL%
This is the percentage of the water that will be added to the brine tank after a regeneration. The default is 70%. The remaining amount of water will be added just prior to the regeneration and will be proportional to the amount of capacity left in the system.

DAILY RESERVE
This value is used to calculate the reserve capacity. Reserve Capacity = No. People x DAILY RESERVE.

DAY OVERIDE
This setting can be used to add number of days to over ride the meter. As an example if the setting is 5, the system will regenerate after 5 days even if there is still gallons capacity remaining. OFF will cancel this feature.

RINSE OVERIDE
This setting can be used to skip the RINSE cycle. As an example if the setting is 10, the system will skip 10 rinse. OFF will cancel this feature.

BW OVERIDE
This setting can be used to skip the back wash cycle. As an example if the setting is 10, the system will skip 10 backwash cycles. The setting will only work if the WATER TYPE is set to CITY for clean water applications.

FORCED REGEN
When set to ON, the system will start a forced regeneration when the remaining capacity reaches 3%. The regeneration consists of 8 minutes of Brine and 12 minutes of Rinse. The 20 minutes regeneration will restore up to 33% of the system capacity. At the next regeneration time (2:00 AM), the system will automat-ically perform a standard regenera-tion to restore ca-pacity to 100%.

SMART CLEAN
When set to ON, the system will perform a 10 minute back wash and 10 minute rinse if there is no water flow detected after 7 days. The regeneration will occur at the scheduled REGEN TIME.
