Recommended Preventative Maintenance Inspection Schedule
The Culligan Medallist Series commercial water softener has been designed to provide a good,
consistent service life. Routinely inspecting the system may help avoid potentially costly breakdowns
related to circumstances outside of the control of the dealer and/or user.
Component Suggested Inspection
Frequency
Reason for Maintenance
Entire System At Start-up, after infrequent use
(idle for one week or more) or
every 3 - 6 months
On private supplies, the appearance of
off-tastes and odors, particularly if musty or
“rotten egg” (caused by harmless sulfate-
reducing bacteria) may indicate a need for
the system to be sanitized. See page 26.
Backwash Flow
Controller
Every 12 months or every time
service is performed on the
system.
Build up of sediment, iron and/or other
foreign materials (found in some water
supplies but not necessarily all) could
negatively affect system performance. Monitor
item for normal or unexpected wear.
Brine eductor
nozzle and
throat
Every 12 months or every time
service is performed on the
system.
Build up of sediment, iron and/or other
foreign materials (found in some water
supplies but not necessarily all) could
negatively affect system performance. Monitor
item for normal or unexpected wear.
Softening Media
(Cullex)
Every 2 - 3 years Chlorinated water supplies can breakdown
and destroy resin material. Resin material
may also perform poorly if subjected to other
materials (sediment, iron, alum, etc.) found in
some water supplies (but not necessarily all).
