XI. Sanitizing the System
KineticoPRO water systems are intended for use on microbiologically safe water supplies. If the inlet water supply's
safety is compromised for any reason (for example a "Boil Alert" from a municipal supply or positive bacteria test on a
well), you should by-pass the system until bacteriological safety has been restored.
NOTE: When installation is complete, chlorinate plumbing lines and softener for sanitation. You may use common
household bleach. The amount of bleach will vary depending on plumbing size, length and fixtures.
Recommended Softener Sanitation Procedure:
1. In a bucket, mix the designated amount of unscented household bleach in clean/soft water. This should make a 100
ppm solution. A table is provided below, which gives the gallons of solution required for each of the 2 tanks.
Note: If each tank requires more than 4 gallons of solution, it is recommended to use 2 buckets.

2. Disconnect the brine line and place the 3/8" tube into the container holding the bleach mixture from the step above.
3. Place the unit into brine draw on one tank.
4. Draw the mixture until a strong bleach odor is detected (smelled or tested) in the drain line discharge. This procedure
should produce approximately 20 ppm in the mixed solution. If necessary, insert 3/8" tube in the 2
and draw into the tank after the 1st bucket is depleted, based on the required solution per tank listed in step #1.
5. Switch quickly to the other tank and repeat the procedure, using the first bucket and/or switching to the second
bucket of solution (if necessary). Be sure to draw the required solution per tank as listed above in step #1.
6. Advance the control disc to the service position and allow the unit to stand for 30-60 minutes. The colder the
water, the longer the stand time should be.
7. Reconnect the brine line (3/8" tube) to the brine tank and backwash each tank of the softener two times.

A.
Fill the brine drum with clean water softener salt. Use evaporated salt only in
the form of compacted pellets, cubes, or blocks. Do NOT use rock salt, solar salt
or other dirty salts as they will hamper system performance and damage the
system. Replace the brine drum lid.
B.
Make sure the by-pass valve is set to the open or green position.
C.
Open the inlet valve very slowly and allow the system to slowly fill with water
and pressurize. Water will run through the drain line temporarily.
D.
Open a soft water tap and purge the lines of air and color. Close the tap after you
have sufficiently purged the lines.
E.
Check all plumbing connections for leaks when the system is fully pressurized.
If your salt storage tank does run out of salt, you can manually regenerate the unit after adding
salt, or you can wait for it to go through regeneration automatically.
Using a #2 Phillips screwdriver, push down firmly on the softener valve screw and slowly turn
clockwise until the actuator has advanced the indicator dot to the "Brine" position. You should hear
at least five "clicks" while turning the screw before the indicator dot reaches the "Brine" position. At
this point you should hear water begin to run through the system. If you do not hear water running
through the system, the indicator dot has not been advanced far enough. Repeat the procedure for
manual regeneration after the water flow stops to be sure both resin tanks are regenerated.
NOTE: If your hot water tank has refilled with hard water, it may take several days for it to empty
and for your water to feel soft again.
