The softener "culligan medallist" settings are for another house
were I lived with a well which was only 1-2 years old, I moved and brought the softener with me to this house ,this well
was dug in 1985 a lot older .Should I change these or what?
This well water tests are.

PH 6.4

Hardness 9

iron 1.13 ppm

Culligan never told me what the water test was when they setup at the other well. Thats were I bought it at.

What are the best settings for this well.

softener= 1.2 cubic ft
40,000 grains
2 people

settings at present are:

regen time 2:00am
salt dosage=10 lb
Backwash time=10 mins
BrineDraw/Slow Rinse Time=71 mins
Override regen in days=15
Regen gals= 1000

Should these be changed on this well?
thanks.:confused:
