Pelican WF6/WF10 Iron/Manganese Filter and Salt Free Softener Rev T Page 24 Flush Your Water Heater Cleaning and restoring the plumbing system is a major benefit of the NS3/NS6 NaturSoft system. In order to minimize the time required to complete the de-scaling process, we strongly recommend flushing your water heater after a period of 6 weeks: • Turn off the heat source, attach a hose to the drain valve at the bottom of the tank and flush the heater by opening the drain valve.
Rev T Page 25 Pelican WF6/WF10 Iron/Manganese Filter and Salt Free Softener If you have a dishwasher: Generally, the NS3/NS6 NaturSoft system removes mineral hardness from solution and forms micro crystals; it does not physically remove the natural minerals from the water. Harsh chemicals, specifically acidic (low pH) detergents or rinse agents, can re-dissolve these crystals. This reduces the desired effect.
Rev T Page 26 Pelican WF6/WF10 Iron/Manganese Filter and Salt Free Softener Maintenance Sediment Filter It is recommended that the Sediment Filter be replaced every 6-9 months depending on the amount of sediment present in the water supply. If the system has been working properly and the pressure is slowing, it may be time to change the Sediment Filter. Check the Sediment Filter and replace if necessary.
