INCREASED USAGE
Guests, family additions, new water-using appliances, etc. all will result in more
water usage and will require more capacity from your conditioner. You can re-
program your recharging schedule by following the directions on adjustments
on pages 6 and 7. Call your Culligan Man for advice and save a service call.
NO WATER
If you aren’t getting any water flow at all, make sure your water supply is
working. Open a tap ahead of the conditioner (outside tap) to see if you have
any water pressure. Check the by-pass valve. If it is the Service (soft water)
position, put it into by-pass and call your Culligan dealer for service.
CONTINUOUS FLOW TO DRAIN
If water runs to drain continuously, check to make sure unit is not in recharge.
If it is recharging, allow unit to finish cycle, then reset time of day if necessary.
If the unit is not in recharge, unplug electrical cord, place the valve in bypass,
and contact your Culligan dealer for service.
SALT BRIDGING
Salt “bridging” occurs when a space is formed between the salt and the water
preventing the salt from dissolving in the water to make brine. No brine — no
soft conditioned water!
High humidity and/or use of some brands of purified salt products may cause
a salt bridge to form.
The best way to check and eliminate a salt bridging problem is to take a broom
handle or similar instrument and make a mark 32 inches from the end. Then
carefully begin to probe down through the salt with the instrument. Should an
obstruction be found before the mark on your instrument reaches the rim of
the salt storage tank, a salt bridge is likely to have formed. Continue to probe
and break up the bridge.
CAUTION! Do not force the implement past the mark as damage to
the horizontal salt plate may occur.
