To clean out the salt storage tank
A periodic clean-out of the Salt Storage Tank is necessary to keep your
Culligan Water Conditioner at peak operating efficiency. Do it at least every 2
years when the salt supply is low. Follow these step-by-step procedures:
Tools needed:
Scoop
Clean, bucket-size container
Phillips-head screwdriver
Garden hose
Household scrub brush or sponge
1 Remove the salt storage tank cover and the cap from the brine valve
chamber.
2 Lift the brine valve out of the brine valve chamber and set aside in an
upright position.
3 If you’d like to save any clean, dry salt remaining in the tank, remove it and
place it in a clean container.
4 Using the scoop, dig out and discard as much remaining salt, water and
debris as possible.
5 Remove the brine valve chamber by removing the screws on either side of
the salt tank.
6 Lay the salt tank on its side and direct a brisk stream of water from your
garden hose to its inside to rinse out all residue.
7 Using a household scrub brush and a mild soapy solution, clean the salt
plate. This will complete the tank cleaning.
8 Stand salt tank upright. Place brine valve chamber in position and affix with
screws.
9 Insert the brine valve into the chamber and replace brine valve chamber
cap.
10 Fill the salt storage tank with 4 to 6 inches of water.
11 Fill the tank with salt to within a few inches from the top.
12 Replace salt storage tank cover.
