Monthly: Check the salt level. Add a bag if it’s below half. Every 3 months: Clean the brine tank’s salt bridge (if any). Once a year: Run a regeneration cycle with a resin cleaner. That’s it. No oil changes, no spark plugs. Just salt and a little love.
A Final, Friendly Warning
Do NOT put salt in the other tank. The main unit with the control panel holds resin beads, not salt. If you pour salt into the wrong hole, you’ll have a bad day. Label the tanks with a marker if you forget. Or just remember: salt goes into the tall, boring plastic one. Resin stays dry in the fancy one. Your future self will high-five you.
