CONSUMER FRiENDLy FEATURES
Your Kinetico 2020c is loaded with convenient features that make it as easy as possible for
you to operate your system.
Easy open lid
Kinetico’s hinged lid
(Fig.3)
means you will never have to fumble around trying to make the lid fit
on the softener. Simply hold the handle and pull the lid open to gain access to the salt bay. Close
the lid by lifting until you feel it lock into place. If your particular installation does not permit
the use of a hinged lid, your installation kit contains an alternative connection mechanism
that permits you to lift the entire lid from the system for access to the salt bay
(Fig. 4)
.
Low-flow metering
Your Kinetico system is equipped with the latest technology capable of measuring
extremely low flow. As a result, you can be sure that your system is metering your water
usage properly so it can regenerate at the appropriate time and continue to provide you
with an uninterrupted supply of soft water.
proper regeneration
Some system manufacturers, in an attempt to publish better performance numbers, reduce
the amount of water used during regeneration. Unfortunately, using less water increases
the chance that the system will not completely rinse itself of the salt regenerant and you
may get salty water through your home. Your Kinetico system uses just enough water to
rinse any remaining regenerant from its tanks to prevent salty water from entering your
plumbing while maintaining maximum system efficiency.

Compact, attractive design
The Kinetico 2020c takes up less volume than any other comparable cabinet style water
softener. That’s because the Kinetico packs a lot of performance in a small package.
If your softener is installed in an open location, you wont be afraid to show off its sleek,
modern design.
System status monitoring
If the location of your Kinetico 2020c permits viewing from the top, you can always check
your system status of service and regeneration by looking through the viewing window on
the top of the cabinet.
Simply check the indicator dot
(see fig. 9 on page 11)
to see what mode of operation your
system is in. Remember that even if the softener is regenerating, your Kinetico system can
still provide you with soft water since it has 2 softening cylinders.
