How Your Water Conditioner Works Why Water Gets Hard And How It’s Softened All of the fresh water in the world originally falls as rain, snow, or sleet. Surface water is drawn upward by the sun, forming clouds. Then, nearly pure and soft as it starts to fall, it begins to collect impurities as it passes through smog and dust-laden atmosphere.
Introduction 7 The Culligan Process Your Culligan water conditioner consists of three basic components, (A) the Control Valve, (B) the Mineral Tank, and (C) the Brine System. A. The exclusive Culligan control valve automatically performs a variety of tasks that are necessary for the proper operation of your water conditioner.
Preparation 8 Culligan Soft-Minder Twin ® Softeners Component Description The water conditioner is shipped from the factory in a minimum of four cartons. Remove all components from their cartons and inspect them before starting installation. Control Valve Assembly - Includes the Soft-Minder Twin Control.
Preparation 9 Application Water quality - Verify that raw water hardness and iron are within limits. Note the hardness for setting the salt dosage and recharge frequency. Pressure - If pressure exceeds 125 psi (860 kPa), install a pressure reducing valve (see materials checklist).
