all steps exactly to correctly install. Failure to follow
them could cause personal injury or property damage.

benefits from your water softener.
A Your water softener wili remove hardness minerais
and “clear water” iron* from water, up to the limits
shown on the specifications page in your owner’s
manual. It will not remove other types of iron, acids,
tastes and odors, etc. It will not purify polluted water
or make it safe to drink.
A Check with your locai public works department for
plumbing, electric and sanitation codes. You must fol­
low their guides as you install your softener. Codes in
the State of Massachusetts require instailations by a
licensed plumber. For installation, use plumbing code
