Hi-Flo^® 3e Automatic Water Softener

Introducing the Most Versatile Water Softener in the Industry

Expandable - Additional tanks can be easily added. As many as 6 controls may be linked together allowing for simple, future expansion.

Progressive Flow - Culligan’s patented feature permits smaller systems to provide greater flow rates and treatment capacities by taking tanks on-line or off-line based on system flow rate.

Brine Reclaim - Optional feature allows system to recycle a portion of regeneration water. The system not only conserves water, but also makes your water softener more environmentally friendly.

Electronics - State-of-the-art 24 VAC solid state electronics allow the controller to be used as a simple timer or a more complex system integrator. Can be regenerated based on time or volume. Configuration settings are accessed from a user-friendly programmable interface.

Diagnostics - The controller provides sophisticated diagnostics which allows for easy system analysis.

Wide Range of Capacities and Flow Rates - Available with capacities ranging from 60,000 grains to 450,000 grains per tank. Peak flow rates from 29 gpm to 100 gpm per tank.

Retrofit Existing Systems - Our retrofit kits can be used on any existing Fleck® 2850 (1-1/2") valve or 2900 (2") valve. The kits add full MVP™ capabilities to these systems allowing for the use of features such as progressive flow and brine reclaim.

• Flow Measuring Devices - are available for direct connection to the MVP™ controller for volume based regeneration initiation.

Warranty

Culligan’s Hi-Flo^® 3e water softeners are backed by a limited 1-year warranty against defects in materials, workmanship, and corrosion. The plastic conditioner tank has a 5-year warranty. See printed warranty for details.^*

Some localities have corrosive water. A softener cannot correct this condition, so its printed warranty disclaims liability for corrosion of plumbing lines, fixtures, or water- using equipment. If you suspect corrosion, your independently operated Culligan® dealer has equipment to control the problem.

^*See printed warranty for details. Culligan will provide a copy of the warranty upon request.
