Your new system is designed to bring you years of healthful, deliciously crystal-clear Culligan® water. With its special faucet installed on your sink, it’s like getting bottled water straight from your kitchen tap. ABOUT YOUR SYSTEM The reverse osmosis method of water treatment has long been regarded as one of the most efficient and effective ways to reduce impurities. It’s the technology we’ve used to build your new Culligan Good Water Machine. In addition, we’ve incorporated activated carbon and fine particle filtration to bring you one of the most effective systems available today. GOOD WATER MACHINE SYSTEM COMPONENTS Refer to Figure 1, page 6 Particle Filter (Model H-30PRV-C) The particle filter screens out dirt, sand, rust, and other microscopic particles 15 times smaller than a grain of sand. Activated Carbon Filter (Model H-30PRV-C) The activated carbon filter gets rid of bad tastes and odors, including chlorine. If present in your untreated water supply. Particle/Activated Carbon Filter (Model H-30S-R) The particle/activated carbon filter combines the filtration capabilities of separate particle and activated carbon filters into one space efficient package. Reverse Osmosis Membrane Filter The reverse osmosis (RO) membrane filter squeezes out dissolved substances, including lead, asbestos, and many others. These substances may not be in your water. See Performance Data Sheet for list of substances and removal percentages. Storage Tank The storage tank holds up to 2 gallons of triple-filtered Culligan® water under pressure for rapid delivery. Optional three and nine-gallon tanks are available. Polishing Filter The Good Water Machine™ includes a second activated carbon filter as added assurance that your water will be crystal clear. 3 Faucet The special drinking water faucet mounts conveniently on your kitchen sink. A simple twist of the handle is all it takes to enjoy refreshing Culligan drinking water. CERTIFIED PERFORMANCE The Culligan ® Good Water Machine Model H-30S-R and H-30PRV-C Drinking Water Systems have been tested and certified to ANSI/NSF International Standard 58 for effective reduction of TDS, Asbestos, Barium, Cadmium, Hexavalent and Trivalent Chromium, Copper, Cysts, Fluoride, Lead, Mercury, Radium 226/228, and Selenium. Average removal percentages are as follows: Asbestos 99.6% Fluoride Barium 90.1% Lead Cadmium 98.9% Mercury Chromium III 97.9% Radium 226/228* Chromium VI 82.6% Selenium Copper 98.9% TDS/Sodium Chloride Cysts (including 99.99% Cryptosporidium, Giardia Lamblia and Entamoeba Histolytica) 96.4% 98.6% 83.1% 80.0% 94.5% 91.3% *Minimum removal based on approved testing methods with Barium as surrogate. The substances removed by this system are not necessarily in your untreated water. See Performance Data Sheet for exact percentages of contaminant removal. 4 HOW TO USE YOUR SYSTEM With the Good Water Machine™, you’ll get a continuous supply of clear, refreshing water for drinking and cooking. But Culligan improves a lot more than just water. Crystal clear Culligan® water is ideal for: • coffee • recipes • tea • baby formula • soup • houseplants • juice • pets • everything you make with water • pasta • ice cubes • steam irons • drink mixes PERFORMANCE CHECK To check the performance of your Good Water Machine, it is necessary to measure the total dissolved solids (TDS) level of the filtered water. This simple test can be done quickly by your dealer. The Good Water SentryTM Water Quality Monitor is another way to keep track of your system’s performance. This optional accessory checks your drinking water each time you use the special faucet, and signals when the membrane filter may need to be replaced. If the water quality of your system seems to have declined, drain the storage tank and allow the system to refill. If the problem persists, call your Culligan Man for service. 5 INSTALLATION This Owner’s Guide provides visual assembly reference only. Since specialized skills are required in the assembly of the drinking water system, we recommend that you contact your local independently operated Culligan dealer to complete this installation. APPLICATION GUIDELINES The Good Water Machine™ is designed for use on potable water supplies meeting the guidelines outlined in Table 1. The system should be installed on your home’s cold water line. The flushing stream should discharge through an approved siphon break as illustrated in Figure 1. Installation of this system must comply with state and local laws and regulations.
