Programming your PENTAIR OM34K OMNIFILTER High Efficiency Twin Tank Softener is straightforward. Here's a step-by-step guide:
-
Set the Time of Day: Begin by setting the current hour. Press the "Time" button until the correct hour (0-23) appears on the display.
-
Adjust the Recharge Time: The softener recharges at 2:00 AM by default. To change this, adjust the clock setting to initiate the recharge at your preferred time.
-
Choose Your Salt Setting: Press the "Salt" button to view your current setting (HC or HE). Press it again within 5 seconds to toggle between the options:
- HC (High Capacity): Opt for this if you have hard water or high water usage, as it maximizes the time between recharges.
- HE (High Efficiency): Select this setting if your water is less hard or your water usage is lower; it helps conserve salt.
-
Input Your Water Hardness: Use the "Hardness" button to set the water hardness level. Pressing the button repeatedly (within 5 seconds each time) increases the setting by one grain per gallon. Holding the button will allow for faster adjustment.
-
Finalize the Settings: Once the time, salt setting, and water hardness are configured, the programming is complete. The system will now operate according to your settings.
-
Additional Considerations:
- The controller will automatically initiate a recharge if one hasn't occurred within the last 7 days.
- Ensure the softener is continuously powered by plugging the AC adapter into a non-switched power source.
