Ope. Opeપરેટિંગ

The BWT Perla One operates automatically once properly set up. It uses AQA Perla technology with microprocessor control for efficient and easy operation.

5.1. Automatic Softening

The system continuously monitors water usage and automatically initiates regeneration cycles as needed. It offers 24 hours of soft water operation for 1 to 2 residential units.

5.2. Regeneration Process

During regeneration, the softener flushes the resin bed with a brine solution to remove accumulated hardness minerals. This process is typically scheduled for times of low water usage (e.g., late at night) to minimize inconvenience. The intelligent regeneration system ensures economical use of salt and rinse water.

5.3. Monitoring Salt Levels

Regularly check the salt level in the brine tank. When the salt level is low, replenish it with BWT-approved regeneration salt to ensure continuous soft water supply. The system may provide an indicator for low salt levels.

Periodically (e.g., once a year), inspect and clean the brine tank. This involves removing any salt crusts or sediment that may accumulate at the bottom. Refer to the detailed cleaning instructions in the full product manual.

6.3. System Inspection

Annually, inspect all connections, hoses, and valves for any signs of wear, corrosion, or leaks. Ensure the drain line is clear and free of obstructions. If any issues are found, contact a qualified service technician.
