97WB-IF Iron Filter

Start-Up Procedures

Figure 14

Your WaterBoss Iron Filter may be programmed to regenerate every one to fourteen days.

You select the frequency based on the amount of iron in the water and the number of people

in the household. You will have to set the time of day and the desired time of regeneration by

following the procedure outlined on page 17 of this manual. See the WaterBoss Iron Filter

Application Chart on page 16.

IMPORTANT: Because the WB-IF is capable of treating a combination of undesirable con-

stituents in the water (iron and/or hydrogen sulfide), it is important that the filter be applied

within the operating limits outlined in this manual. Failure to comply with these specifications

will cause poor backwash results and possibly a malfunction of the control valve.

INSTALLATION TIP: Before placing the filter in service, add three gallons of water to the cab-

inet. See page 9. Make sure the KMnO

has been thoroughly mixed as indicated below. To

start a regeneration, push and hold the immediate recharge button until the controller indi-

cates cycle 01 (flashing). After 45 minutes, the filter will return to service mode and display

from 01 or 14 (solid).

NOTE

: This filter should be installed after the pressure tank or water meter, before the water-

heater or any WaterBoss water softener appliance unless otherwise recommended. (See

illustration). A minimum 3/4” pipe is required for proper function of the filter. It is also impor-

tant to examine the inlet piping to make sure the pipe is not plugged with lime or iron. If the

piping is plugged, it must be cleaned or replaced.

CAUTION

: When adding the Potassium Permanganate ( KMnO

), use care when opening

the container and pouring it into the cabinet. Stir the KMnO

until the color is a dark walnut

and stir every two weeks. Follow the safety precatuions on the container. Coarse granular

Potassium Permanganate is recommended for this filter appliance (P/N 97804). Fine granu-

lar Potassium Permanganate can be drawn into the filter as a solid rather than a liquid. For

further operating and handling instructions, refer to the KMnO

Potassium Permanganate

product label.
