POINT-OF-USE WATER SOFTENING
model:
CFSM1254
The 3M™ Water Filtration Products CFSM1254 Water Softener
System is designed to reduce maintenance and increase energy
effi ciency in water using foodservice equipment by reducing hardness in water. High capacity cation ion exchange resin reduces
hardness that can coat heating elements and form scale in the
water storage area. This softened water can reduce equipment
cleaning times and maximize effi ciency of cleaning agents. Reduction of scale-causing hardness also maximizes energy effi ciency of
the equipment.
PRODUCT BENEFITS
• Distributor scrubs resin clean during regeneration.

IMPORTANT: INSTALLATION TIPS
These installation tips are for informational purposes only and are not intended to be used
as actual installation instructions. CAUTION: To reduce the risk associated with property
damage due to water leakage:
• Read and follow Use Instructions before installation and use of this system.
• Installation and use MUST comply with all state and local plumbing codes.
• Protect from freezing, depressurize and drain system when temperatures are expected
to drop below 33°F (0.6°C).
• Do not install on hot water supply lines. The maximum operating water temperature of
this fi lter system is 110°F (43.3°C).
• Do not install if water pressure exceeds 125 psi (862 kPa). If your water pressure ex-
ceeds 80 psi (552 kPa), you must install a pressure limiting valve. Contact a plumbing
professional if you are uncertain how to check your water pressure.
• Do not install where water hammer conditions may occur. If water hammer conditions exist
you must install a water hammer arrester. Contact a plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to check for this condition.
