Note To The Home Owner

Your OneFlow + system will improve the properties of water
®
throughout your home. Here are some things to expect and
some recommendations for maximizing the benefits and your
enjoyment of OneFlow+:
Sinks and fixtures –
should have reduced
spotting. If water is
allowed to evaporate off
a surface, small spots
may be left behind.
Many times this residue
is easier to clean up
than the previous hard
water spotting.
Dishwasher-Spotting
on dishes and on
the surface of the
dishwasher should
be greatly reduced.
We recommend that
you immediately
reduce the amount of
dishwashing detergent
by approximately
50% as compared
to hard water
use. Dishwashing
detergents low in phosphates are highly recommended as
they are better for the environment and phosphates can cause
spotting. In very hard water areas,
the use of a rinse aid may be
advised.
Shower doors and tiles – should
have reduced spotting. When water
evaporates off a surface, small spots
may be left behind. Depending on
water chemistry, these spots may be
easy to remove with a damp cloth or
sponge.
In the bath Soaps and
shampoos will rinse off
much easier and faster than
they would with traditional
soft water. We recommend
the use of modern soaps for
the best results.
Things to watch for:
During the first 30-90 days:
• Faucet aerators and drains may plug occasionally as old scale
is removed from your plumbing system and water heater.
• You may also see milky water after installation of the system.
This could be due to trapped air within the plumbing system or
the descaling affect of OneFlow
Good practices:
If your dishwasher is severely coated with scale at the time of
installation, we recommend that you purchase a product like
Jet-Dry Dishwasher cleaner to accelerate the cleaning. After this
®
initial cleaning OneFlow
®
We also recommend that you drain your water heater tank. This
should be done 30 to 60 days after OneFlow
again in one year. This is a good practice that can dramatically
increase the life of your water heating appliance. The OneFlow
will help keep the tank and heating elements free of scale and
operating at peak efficiency. Please follow the manufacturer's
instructions when draining the tank!
