Introduction
It’s All So Easy, So Economical, So Efficient, So Enjoyable!
Kind To Skin And Complexion
Soft water will help prevent red, itchy or dry skin because there are no hardness impurities to cause soreness, no soap curd to coat the skin. Shaving is easier, smoother—either with a blade or electric shaver.
Bathing And Showering
You’ll use far less soap with conditioned water. Use your soap very sparingly—not as you did before soft water. Just a quick rinse removes all lather, leaving your skin pleasantly smooth and silky because now it’s free of sticky soap curd and film.
Saves Washing Costs. Helps Control Environmental Pollution
Soft water washes whiter and cleaner with less soap or detergent. Because the hardness impurities are removed, your soap can concentrate solely on washing. People usually find that they can reduce the amount of soap they use substantially. If you normally use a cup per wash load with hard water, try using 1/3 cup depending on the size of your wash load and the degree of soil. Different amounts are required, but
you can use less with softened water. An added bonus is the fact that your washable fabrics will last longer.
Super Hair Conditioning
Soft water is great for scalp and hair care. No insoluble deposits are formed. Hair is shinier, softer, more manageable. Reduce the amount of shampoo you have normally used.
Dishes Are A Delight
Washed by hand or in a dishwasher, glassware, dishes, and silver wash cleaner and easier. Follow your dishwasher manufacturer’s instructions. Soft water promotes sanitation because no greasy hard water film can form to collect or harbor bacteria.
Easier Housekeeping, Gleaming Fixtures
You’ll be amazed at the marvelous difference. Just a swish of the cloth, and the bathtub or shower and fixtures are clean and sparkling. Imagine, no scouring! No hard water scum to cause rings, streaks, spots, and stains. To keep their gleaming luster, simply wipe fixtures with a towel after use. Formica, tile, walls, floors, woodwork surfaces clean easier, stay clean longer. You’ll save on cleaning aids and save on time.
Saves Water-Heating Energy, Helps Water-Using Appliances
Soft water reduces the formation of rock-like hard water scale that encrusts water heaters, hot water pipes, shower heads, and water-using appliances. This scale can cause premature maintenance and failure. Elimination of hard water also provides substantial energy savings because scale acts as an insulator, wasting electricity or gas used to heat water.
Water For Lawns And Household Plants
If possible, lawn sprinkling faucets should be supplied with hard water primarily because it is not economical to soften so much water.
Household plants are much more sensitive than lawns with respect to the kind of water which is best. First, because they receive no rainfall and, second, there is little or no drainage of the soil. Preferably they should be watered with rainwater or water which is low in mineral content such as distilled or demineralized water. Softened water is not recommended for house plants because a build-up of sodium in the soil may interfere with efficient absorption of water by the plant root system. Additional information may be obtained from your independently operated Culligan dealer.
Culligan Municipal Softener
With the Culligan Municipal softener you will experience the above benefits in addition to the reduction of chlorine taste and odor for a fresh, clean taste and smell.
How Your Water Conditioner Works
Why Water Gets Hard And How It Is Softened
All of the fresh water in the world originally falls as rain, snow, or sleet. Surface water is drawn upward by the sun, forming clouds. Then, nearly pure and soft as it starts to fall, it begins to collect impurities as it passes through smog and dust-laden atmosphere. And as it seeps through soil and rocks it gathers hardness, rust, acid, unpleasant tastes and odors.
Water hardness is caused primarily by limestone dissolved from the earth by rainwater. Because of this, in earlier times people who wanted soft water collected rainwater from roofs in rain barrels and cisterns before it picked up hardness from the earth.
Some localities have corrosive water. A softener cannot correct this problem and so its written warranty disclaims liability for corrosion of plumbing lines, fixtures or appliances. If you suspect corrosion, your Culligan dealer has equipment to control the problem.
Iron is a common water problem. The chemical/physical nature of iron found in natural water supplies is exhibited in four general types:
- Dissolved Iron—Also called ferrous or “clear water” iron. This type of iron can be removed from the water by the same ion exchange principle that removes the hardness elements, calcium and magnesium. Dissolved iron is soluble in water and is detected by taking a sample of the water to be treated in a clear glass. The water in the glass is initially clear, but on standing exposed to the air, it may gradually turn cloudy or colored as it oxidizes.
- Particulate Iron—Also called ferric or colloidal iron. This type of iron is an undissolved particle of iron. A softener will remove larger particles, but they may not be washed out in regeneration effectively and will eventually foul the ion exchange resin. A filtering
treatment will be required to remove this type of iron. - Organic Bound Iron—This type of iron is strongly attached to an organic compound in the water. The ion exchange process alone cannot break this attachment and the softener will not remove this type of iron.
- Bacterial Iron—This type of iron is protected inside a bacteria cell. Like the organic bound iron, it is not removed by a water softener.
When using a softener to remove both hardness and dissolved iron it is important that it regenerates more frequently than ordinarily would be calculated for hardness removal alone. Although many factors and formulas have been used to determine this frequency, it is recommended that the softener be regenerated when it has reached 50–75% of the calculated hardness alone capacity. This will minimize the potential for bed fouling. (Iron removal claims have not been verified by the Water Quality Association and IAPMO R&T.)
If you are operating a water softener on clear water iron, regular resin bed cleaning is needed to keep the bed from coating with iron. Even when operating a softener on water with less than the maximum of dissolved iron, regular cleanings should be performed. Clean every six months or more often if iron appears in your conditioned water supply. Use resin bed cleaning compounds carefully following the
directions on the container.
NOTICE: Do not use where the water is microbiologically unsafe or with water of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the unit.
The Culligan Process
Your Culligan water conditioner consists of three basic components, (A) the Control Valve, (B) the Mineral Tank, and (C) the Brine System.
A. Control Valve
The exclusive Culligan control valve automatically performs a variety of tasks that are necessary for the proper operation of your water conditioner. These tasks, commonly referred to as cycles or operating positions, are Service, Regeneration, and Brine Refill.
- Service: While the control valve is in the service cycle, hard water is directed down through the column of Cullex® resin where hardness minerals are removed from the water. The softened water is then directed into your household plumbing lines. The ability of the Cullex resin to remove hardness minerals needs to be periodically replenished; this is referred to as Regeneration.
- Regeneration: While the control valve is in the regeneration cycle, water is first directed up through the column of Cullex resin to flush
accumulated sediment out of the resin and down the drain. Then, the regenerant brine solution is slowly drawn from the bottom of the salt storage tank of the Brine System and is directed down through the column of Cullex resin, restoring the ability of the resin to remove hardness minerals from your water supply. Once completed, the regeneration cycle is followed by Brine Refill. - Brine Refill: While the control valve is in the brine refill cycle, a predetermined amount of water is directed to the salt storage tank of the Brine System so that additional salt can be dissolved to provide the brine solution that will be needed for the next regeneration cycle.
B. The Mineral Tank
The Mineral Tank contains the Cullex resin column, Cullsan® underbedding, and an outlet manifold (the Culligan Municipal also includes carbon media for chlorine taste & odor reduction). The number of gallons of hard water that can be softened by the Cullex resin column before it needs regeneration is called the “capacity” of the resin column, and depends upon the amount of hardness minerals in each gallon of water (expressed as grains per gallon) and upon the amount of regenerant brine solution (expressed as pounds of salt) passed through the resin column during regeneration.
Your Culligan service person, taking into account the hardness of your water and the amount of softened water your household may reasonably expect to use each day, has carefully established how often the softener will regenerate and how much salt will be used for each regeneration. This will ensure that all of your soft water needs will be fulfilled without using an excessive amount of salt.
C. The Brine System
The Brine System consists of a salt storage container and hydraulic Dubl-SafeTM valve. The salt storage container holds the salt that is used to make the regenerant brine solution. The hydraulic Dubl-Safe valve limits the amount of water that is returned to the salt storage tank during the brine refill cycle.
Because a predetermined amount of salt is dissolved with each brine refill cycle, the salt must be periodically replenished in order to maintain efficient operation. Your Culligan service person will be able to tell you about how often salt must be added to the salt storage container.
Modes of Operation
Water Meter Mode
In water meter mode, the controller keeps track of the quantity of water that has flowed through the resin bed. Based on the influent water hardness and the hardness capacity of the resin bed, a service life expectancy in the quantity of softened water is calculated and programmed into the control. When the set point is reached, regeneration is triggered. If the predict mode is not selected the regeneration will start at time of regeneration. In immediate mode the regeneration starts as soon as the regeneration signal is provided. If time clock backup is set and the capacity has not been exhausted but the days since last regen is greater than time clock backup, setting the softener will immediately regenerate.
Aqua-Sensor® Mode
The Aqua-Sensor is a conductivity probe that senses when the hardness front passes through the resin bed. It functions independently of the influent water hardness so therefore, is useful in conditions when the influent water hardness varies throughout the year. It provides for the most efficient mode of operation. In addition to sensing when a resin bed is exhausted, it can also be used to determine when the brine solution is rinsed from the resin bed during the Brine Draw/Slow Rinse cycle triggering the control to move to fast rinse. This patented feature provides water savings by optimizing the amount of rinse water required to completely rinse out the resin bed.
Smart Brine Tank Probe
The smart brine tank probe monitors conditions inside the brine tank. It predicts when salt needs to be added to the brine tank, detects the presence of salt-bridging, eductor line plugging and brine tank overfilling.
Wireless Remote Control
The wireless remote control displays the current status of the water softener or filters and allows for remote control. It can be located up to 200 feet away from the softener (depending upon building construction materials). The wireless remote displays information about softener
performance, problems, days of salt remaining and allows remote control for regeneration.
The wireless remote control is designed to communicate at 915 MHz and to work without interference with other 915 MHz devices such as cordless telephones and baby monitors.
Modem
The modem allows for the system to be remotely monitored detecting problems before they occur, to schedule salt delivery when it is needed and to keep the system software up to date with the latest advances.
Culligan Connect TM
The Culligan ConnectTM interface is an intuitive mobile app and is available on both iOS and Android. Users will see their daily and weekly usage patterns graphically represented and instantly updated each time they open the app. In addition, low salt alerts and the ability to put the unit in bypass mode or regeneration from anywhere offer an all new level of control and convenience.
Manual Regeneration
Manual regeneration can be initiated via the softener control valve or wireless remote display. Manual regeneration can be initiated to begin regeneration immediately or that night. To immediately initiate regeneration, press and hold for at least ten (10) seconds. To cancel a delayed regeneration, press and hold for at least five (5) seconds.
Predict Mode
The Predict Mode is used with the flow meter to determine the optimum regeneration point. Before the regeneration starts, the control will compare the remaining capacity value with the average daily water use. If the average daily water usage is less than the reserve capacity, the controller will wait 24 more hours before regeneration. If the reserve capacity is less than the average daily water usage, the control
will initiate regeneration. This works in delay mode only. At any time, if the total capacity value is reached, the control will initiate an immediate regeneration.
Pre-Rinse Mode
The Pre-rinse mode is used to pre-rinse the softener resin bed or filter media. The pre-rinse in flow meter mode will occur after the control has sensed that no water has flowed through the control for a period of X hours (can be set through the programming menu). When the control is in this mode, once the X amount of hours have elapsed the control will cycle to the fast rinse position for the pre-set length of
minutes and then return to the home or service position.
Down Flow Regeneration
Water and regenerate flow downward through the media tank.
Up Flow Regeneration
Water flow is downward and regenerate flow is upward through the media tank. The significance of this is that regeneration will be most effective in those parts of the resin bed which are treated with the freshest regenerate solution. There will tend to be less hardness leakage with up-flow regeneration.
Proportional Brining
The control monitors your softened water usage making only enough brine to regenerate that part of the resin bed that has been exhausted. In this way the amount of salt used relates directly to the amount of softened water used, making it more efficient and cost effective. Proportional brining can only be used with upflow regeneration. The Aqua-Sensor or meter can be used to initiate a regeneration.
Dial-A-Softness®
Dial-A-Softness is a manual adjustment built into the control valve that allows for variable hardness bypass into the softened water. The hard water bypass can be adjusted from 0% to 30%. The Dial-A-Softness also increases the softener capacity in proportion to the percent hard water bypass (less salt used).
Salt Supply, Usage and Service
Salt is the mineral used to “recharge” your water conditioner. A brine solution is automatically made up in the bottom of the salt storage container, the Cullex® resin beads in the mineral tank are flushed with the brine solution as a step in the recharging process.
Your Culligan Water Conditioner has been carefully designed to get the greatest amount of softening capacity from the salt it uses. Here is some pertinent information about salt usage, types and service.
Salt Economizer
This control is set at the time of installation, and determines salt usage according to the water hardness, number of persons in the household, and water usage.
What Kind of Salt is Best
All Culligan Water Conditioners are designed to use any water conditioner salt of good quality, including rock, pellet, solar, or “evaporated” types.
All rock salt, regardless of source, contains insoluble material which collects at the bottom of the salt storage tank and requires periodic clean-out.
If purified salt products are used, the salt storage compartment will require less frequent clean-out,but you must check more frequently for “bridging.”
Regardless of what type of salt is used, we recommend Culligan Brand Salt as suggested by your Culligan Dealer. He or she is the expert and can provide you with the best product for your Culligan Water Conditioner.
Automatic Salt Delivery Service
Ask your Culligan Dealer for details about salt delivery service. You can have your salt supply replenished on a regular basis. Whether you have automatic delivery service or pick up salt from your Culligan Dealer, you will be getting quality salt packaged according to rigid Culligan
specifications. Using Culligan Brand Salt will help assure continued efficiency and trouble-free operation of your water conditioner.
The modem allows for the system to be remotely monitored, detecting problems before they occur, to schedule salt delivery when it is needed and to keep the system software up to date with the latest advances.
NOTICE :Sodium Information: Water softeners using sodium chloride for regeneration add sodium to the water. Persons who are on sodium restricted diets should consider the added sodium as part of their overall sodium intake.
Care and Cleaning of Your Water Conditioner
Following these simple precautions will help assure continued trouble-free service and keep your Culligan Water Conditioner looking like new for years.
- Do not place heavy objects on top of the salt storage tank or timer cover.
- Use only mild soap and warm water when cleaning the exterior of the conditioner. Never use harsh, abrasive cleaning compounds or those which contain acid, such as vinegar, bleach and similar products.
- Important: Protect your water conditioner and the entire drainline from freezing temperatures.
WARNING! DANGER: If your unit should freeze, do not attempt to disassemble it. Call your Culligan Dealer.
- Important: Culligan water softeners are sold for use on potable water only. If at any time the water becomes contaminated, such as during a “boil water” advisory, the operation of the water softener should be discontinued until it is verified that the water is again potable. To do this, turn the blue knob in a clockwise position, then call your Culligan dealer to have your system sanitized before it is placed back into service.
- Should service, adjustment or trouble-shooting information be needed which is not covered in the Use and Care Guide, call your Culligan Dealer.
For parts and service availability please call your local independently operated Culligan dealer. For your nearest Culligan dealer, call (800) 285-5442.
Cleaning Out the Salt Storage Tank
A periodic clean-out of the Salt Storage Tank is necessary to keep your Culligan Water Conditioner at peak operating efficiency. Do it at least every two years when the salt supply is low. Follow these step-by-step procedures:
Tools Needed
• Scoop
• Clean, bucket-size container
• Garden hose
• Household scrub brush or sponge
Procedure
- Remove the salt storage tank cover and the cap from the brine valve chamber.
- Disconnect the brine line from the brine valve by holding the outer ring of the push fitting; push the tubing in slightly before pulling it out.
- Lift the brine valve out of the brine valve chamber and set aside in an upright position.
- If you’d like to save any clean, dry salt remaining in the tank, remove it and place it in a clean container.
- Using the scoop, dig out and discard as much remaining salt, water and debris as possible.
- Remove the brine valve chamber by removing the screws on either side of the salt tank.
- Remove the salt plate at the bottom of the brine tank.
- Lay the salt tank on its side and direct a brisk stream of water from your garden hose to its inside to rinse out all residue.
- Using a household scrub brush and a mild soapy solution, clean the salt plate. This will complete the tank cleaning.
- Insert the brine valve into the chamber and replace brine valve chamber cap. (Re-insert the brine valve into the chamber, re-insert the brine line fully, and replace brine valve chamber cap.)
- Fill the salt storage tank with 4 to 6 inches of water.
- Fill the tank with salt to within a few inches of the top.
- Replace salt storage tank cover.
Sanitizing Procedure
A water softener in daily use on a potable water supply generally requires no special attention other than keeping the salt tank filled. Occasionally, however, a unit may require sanitization under one of the following conditions:
• At start-up time.
• After standing idle for a week or more.
• On private supplies, the appearance of off-tastes and odors, particularly if musty or “rotten egg” (caused by harmless sulfate-reducing bacteria).
NOTE: If the water supply contains iron, regenerate the softener before sanitizing to remove iron from the resin.
CAUTION! Caution! Hazard from toxic fumes! Chlorine bleach and common iron control chemicals may generate toxic fumes when mixed.
If the unit uses any compounds containing sodium hydrosulfite, sodium bisulfite, or any other reducing
agent, disconnect the device feeding the chemical(s) and manually regenerate the unit before sanitizing.
Do not use this procedure if the softener salt contains iron control additives.
- Remove the brine tank cover.
- Pour directly into the brine chamber 1/3 to 1/2 cup of common household bleach (5.25% sodium hypochlorite) for each cubic foot of resin in the tank.
- Manually start recharge. Allow the unit to complete the recharge cycle automatically.
If tastes and odors return frequently, even after sanitization, a continuous chlorination system may be needed. Send a water sample to a qualified laboratory for bacterial analysis.

When and How to Bypass Your Water Conditioner
Normally, all water except outside lines passes through the water softener. There are times when the water softener should be bypassed, using the Cul-Flo-Valv® Bypass, or a three-way bypass valve. You should bypass:
- If lines to outside faucets do not bypass the water softener, and you do not want to waste softened water on lawn sprinkling or other outside uses.
- If you are going away on vacation and do not want the unit to recharge.
Bypass Valve
In the back of Culligan water softener is a Cul-Flo-Valv® Bypass valve. To bypass the unit, turn the blue knob clockwise. To return to softened water service, turn the blue knob counter-clockwise.
Bypassed
To BYPASS, turn the blue knob clockwise (see directional arrow on end of knob) until the knob stops as shown in Figure 1. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
Softened Water
To return to SERVICE, turn the blue knob counter-clockwise (see directional arrow on end of knob) until the knob stops as shown in Figure 2. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
Things to Check Before You Call for Service
If you unexpectedly experience changes in your water, make these simple checks before calling your Culligan dealer. One of the following conditions may be the reason for your interruption of service.
Important
If any of the following conditions is found, the water softener should be manually regenerated according to instructions on “Standard Manual Regeneration” after you have corrected the problem.
Power Supply
Check your power supply cord. Is it plugged fully into the electric outlet? Be certain that the outlet is not controlled by a wall switch which has been turned off. Plug in the transformer then reset conditioner to the correct time of day.
Blown Fuse
Check the house fuse or circuit breaker panel. Replace a blown-out fuse or reset an open circuit breaker.
Power Failure
Any interruption in your power supply or time change—such as daylight savings—will disrupt your softener’s regeneration schedule by causing the timer to run off-schedule. Reset the timer to the correct time of day.
Bypass Valves
Check to see if they are in the proper position. Cul-Flo-Valv® Bypass, if used, should be in the “Service” position . If hand valves are used, see that inlet and outlet valve are opened and that the bypass valve is closed.
No Water
If you aren’t getting any water flow at all, make sure your water supply is working. Open a tap ahead of the conditioner (outside tap) to see if you have any water pressure. If you have water pressure, check the bypass valve. If it is in the Service position, put it into the bypass and call
your Culligan dealer for service.
Increased Usage
Guests, family additions, new water-using appliances, etc., will result in more water usage and may require additional programming by your local Culligan dealer. Please contact your local Culligan dealer.

An efficiency rated water softener is a DIR softener which also complies with specific performance specifications intended to minimize the amount of regenerant brine and water used in its operation. Efficiency rated water softeners shall have a rated salt efficiency of not less than 3350 grains of total hardness exchange per pound of salt (based on NaCl equivalency) (477 grams of total hardness exchange per kilogram of salt), and shall not deliver more salt than its listed rating. The efficiency is measured by a laboratory test described in NSF/ANSI 44. The test represents the maximum possible efficiency the system can achieve. Operational efficiency is the actual efficiency achieved after the system has been installed. It is typically less than the efficiency due to individual application factors including water hardness, water usage, and other contaminants that reduce the softener’s capacity.
Refer to the Specifications, Familiarization and Warranty section of this Owner’s Guide (P/N 01021076) for more specific product information. To avoid contamination from improper handling and installation, your system should only be installed and serviced by your Culligan dealer. Performance will vary based on local water conditions. The substances reduced by this system are not necessarily in your water.
Culligan water softeners are designed to work with any salt of good quality, although it is recommended that you ask your local Culligan dealer for his suggestion on the best type and grade of salt to use in this softener.
NOTICE: This softener is not intended to be used for treating water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
The efficiency rated dosage is only valid at the 6 lb. salt dosage and maximum service flow rate for 10” models.

An efficiency rated water softener is a DIR softener which also complies with specific performance specifications intended to minimize the amount of regenerant brine and water used in its operation. Efficiency rated water softeners shall have a rated salt efficiency of not less than 3350 grains of total hardness exchange per pound of salt (based on NaCl equivalency) (477 grams of total hardness exchange per kilogram of salt), and shall not deliver more salt than its listed rating. The efficiency is measured by a laboratory test described in NSF/ANSI 44. The test represents the maximum possible efficiency the system can achieve. Operational efficiency is the actual efficiency achieved after the system has been installed. It is typically less than the efficiency due to individual application factors including water hardness, water usage, and other contaminants that reduce the softener’s capacity.
Refer to the Specifications, Familiarization and Warranty section of this Owner’s Guide (P/N 01021076) for more specific product information. To avoid contamination from improper handling and installation, your system should only be installed and serviced by your Culligan dealer. Performance will vary based on local water conditions. The substances reduced by this system are not necessarily in your water.
Culligan water softeners are designed to work with any salt of good quality, although it is recommended that you ask your local Culligan dealer for his suggestion on the best type and grade of salt to use in this softener.
NOTICE: This softener is not intended to be used for treating water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.

An efficiency rated water softener is a DIR softener which also complies with specific performance specifications intended to minimize the amount of regenerant brine and water used in its operation. Efficiency rated water softeners shall have a rated salt efficiency of not less than 3350 grains of total hardness exchange per pound of salt (based on NaCl equivalency) (477 grams of total hardness exchange per kilogram of salt), and shall not deliver more salt than its listed rating. The efficiency is measured by a laboratory test described in NSF/ANSI 44. The test represents the maximum possible efficiency the system can achieve. Operational efficiency is the actual efficiency achieved after the system has been installed. It is typically less than the efficiency due to individual application factors including water hardness, water usage, and other contaminants that reduce the softener’s capacity.
Refer to the Specifications, Familiarization and Warranty section of this Owner’s Guide (P/N 01021076) for more specific product information. To avoid contamination from improper handling and installation, your system should only be installed and serviced by your Culligan dealer. Performance will vary based on local water conditions. The substances reduced by this system are not necessarily in your water.
Culligan water softeners are designed to work with any salt of good quality, although it is recommended that you ask your local Culligan dealer for his suggestion on the best type and grade of salt to use in this softener.
NOTICE This softener is not intended to be used for treating water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
† The efficiency rated dosage is valid only at the 9 lb. salt dosage and 10.6 gpm flow rate for 14” models.
