Water Softener - Optional Control Settings

Water softeners has several helpful options and features integrated into the controls. Many of these have the option of being turned on or off. This article describes these features.

Using Optional Control Settings on a Water Softener

Low Salt Alarm: When the Low Salt Alarm is enabled, a beeper will sound when the "Days to Empty" value is 15 days or less. The factory default is ON; however it can also be turned off.

Prerinse: If your water contains sediment,the Prerinse feature removes sediment from the resin bed prior to regeneration. You can adjust how long the Prerinse lasts.

Backwash and Fast Rinse: If you experience salty tasting water after regeneration, you may need to increase the rinse times up to 10 minutes in 1 minute increments.

Salt Saver/Salt Efficiency: When Salt Saver is ON, the softener may use less salt and less water but could regenerate more often. The factory default is OFF; however, in the State of California the Salt Saver feature must be used.

For assistance with setting these features, follow the directions in the Owner's Manual for the specific model you own.
