NOTES:
Input water conditions will influence the performance 
and flow rate of the system.
All units come standard with 1" bypass 
All units are shipped from factory set at minimum 
capacity and minimum salt usage to afford a 40% 
salt savings.
If Iron content is up to 1 PPM use resin cleaner regularly. Iron over 1 PPM should be pre-treated.
