Hi, I've just fitted a replacement for our 20+ years old one that had finally packed up beyond repair. The new one has a water meter to set up recharging etc.
I've got a manual fo the valve set which tells me how to set: Hardness, Capacity ans salt usage, but dosn't tell me how to decide what numbers to set these at. Any ideas on how to make these decisions? Thanks Dick
Hardness: contact your water company. If you want to double-check, buy a hardness kit from a swimming pool agent.
Capacity and salt usage should be fixed for a given ion exchange tank, leave them alone. The instructions you are reading are for the valve, not the unit as a whole.
Check your water suppliers web site - most have details of the hardness per area covered. e.g:
Use a testing kit. Until you know better, set it to 300. The other numbers need to be had from the manufacturer. They've probably been preset.
