Placing Conditioner Into Operation 35
Rev A
B. When all of the air has been purged from the media tank (water
begins to flow steadily from the drain line), open the main supply
valve all of the way. This will purge the final air from the tank.
C. Allow water to run to drain until the water runs clear from the drain
line. This purges any refuse from the media bed.
D. Turn off the water supply and let the system stand for about five
minutes. This will allow any air trapped to escape from the tank.
8. Add water to the regenerant tank (initial fill) (conditioner only).
A. With a bucket or hose, add approximately 4 gallons (15 liters) of
water to the regenerant tank.
If the tank has a salt platform in the bottom of the tank, add water
until the water level is approximately 1 inch (25 mm) above the
platform.
WARNING: If opened too rapidly or too far, media may be lost out of the
tank into the valve or the plumbing. In the ¼ open position, you should hear air
slowly escaping from the valve drain line.
NOTE: 263 Filter - advance control back to the treated water position,
proceed to Step 12.
NOTE: We recommend that you do not put regenerant into the tank until
after the control valve has been put into operation. With no regenerant in the
tank, it is much easier to view water flow and motion in the tank.
