Programming your water softener - Capacity vs. Efficiency

Water softeners are sized based on "grains capacity". For instance you may have purchased a

"32,000 grain" water softener. The grains capacity refers to how much hardness a softener can

remove before it needs to regenerate. More accurately, the grains capacity refers to the amount

of softening capacity after the softener has regenerated. The amount of salt used during the

regeneration cycle directly affects the amount of capacity in the newly regenerated softener.

As an example, a 32,000 grain water softener contains 1 cubic foot of softening resin. In order to

recover the full 32,000 grains of softening capacity from this volume of resin, the softener must

use 18 pounds of salt during the regeneration cycle. This is a very large amount of salt. This

method, where maximum salt dose is used to yield maximum softening capacity will be referred

to as the

"Max

Capacity" method.

This same 1 cubic foot water softener can be regenerated with 5 pounds of salt yielding 20,000

grains of softening capacity. While the softener will regenerate slightly more often, it will use

less than 1/3 the amount of salt as compared to the method above. This method, we will refer to

as the

"Salt

Efficiency" method.

Unless there is a specific reason to do otherwise, all softeners should be programmed using the

Salt Efficiency

settings. In the following section we will provide instructions on how to program

your softener for either method.

Programming your water softener - Entering the values

1. Power the softener valve by plugging in the power adapter

2. Press and hold the UP button until the programming icon appears – this is a small pencil icon

that appears in the bottom left hand corner of the screen

3. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to program the time to read 12:01 PM. When this is

displayed press the EXTRA CYCLE button (button that has four arrows in the shape of a

square).

4. Now press and hold both the UP and DOWN buttons until the programming icon (pencil)

appears in the bottom left corner of the screen. Then release UP and DOWN buttons.

5. There should now be "DF" displayed in the top left of the screen. Press the UP button until

"GAL" appears in the center of the screen. Then press EXTRA CYCLE.
