Regeneration Procedure
Regeneration Procedure
The TR Series cartridge will need to be regenerated prior to use, and whenever the colour
in the water starts to return. It is important to note that the level of tannins/organics
and the volume of water consumed are two factors which will impact the regeneration
frequency. Puretec always recommend taking preventative measures including trimming back
overhanging foliage, installing gutter mesh and devices to divert the rst ush of rainwater
away from the storage tank(s).
Please follow the procedure below to regenerate the cartridge:
• Turn o the water supply and release pressure by opening a downstream tap.
• Unscrew the housing bowl and remove the lter cartridge (if already installed) and allow
the cartridge to drain completely.
• Empty the lter housing bowl and add 400 grams of salt to the bowl.
• Fill to 1⁄4 with warm water and stir to dissolve the salt.
• Add the lter cartridge to the lter housing bowl.
• Fill with cold water to the top of the housing bowl and allow to soak for 30 - 60 minutes.
• Empty the bowl and remove the cartridge letting it drain for 1 - 2 minutes before placing
it back into the housing bowl and screw into the housing head.
• Flush the salty water out of the cartridge for 1-2 minutes, by turning the water supply on
and opening the tap closest to the lter system.
• The cartridge is ready for use.
The TR Series cartridge is specically for tannin/organics reduction only, it is not designed for
sediment or taste/odour reduction, so is best used in conjunction with a two or three stage
ltration system such as the HYBRID-G13. It is recommended to have sediment pre-ltration
to avoid premature blocking of the TR Series cartridge, and carbon post-ltration to reduce
taste & odour.
Replace the cartridge annually, or sooner if signicantly shortened capacity is observed.
