The Do-It-Yourself regeneration delivers an upflow backwash, downflow brining and slow rinse, rapid rinse, and downflow service. Regenerations are manually performed.
Backwashing is easily achieved by disconnecting the hose from the RV and connecting the feed water to the outlet side of the softener.
Reconnect the feed water to the inlet side of the softener and remove the fill plug, pour a box of salt into the fill hole and replace the fill plug to begin the regeneration process.
Adjust the water flow to a trickle and allow regeneration to take place for 45 minutes to one hour.
After the regeneration process, accelerate flow to 1 – 2 gallons per minute for 5 minutes. Reconnect softener to the RV. |
