Ensign - The Water Softener Centre: long established

 

To turn off your water softener do the following: -

  • Follow the hoses back from the water softener to where the hoses join the copper pipes. Here you will find 3 isolation valves, known collectively as the bypass set. They are white 1/4 turn plastic type valves that are marked with an arrow showing which direction for SOFT water.

  • Turn all three 1/4 white plastic valves in the opposite direction of the SOFT arrow. When all three valves are turned in the opposite direction to the SOFT arrow, your machine will be isolated from the water supply.

  • You may then turn off the 3 watt electric supply to your machine.

  • These measures must be done in conjunction with each other.
