IMPORTANT!
Locate and test the main water supply valve to the housing before installing
the system. If the main water supply valve fails to shut off the water completely during the
test, we recommend contacting your local plumber to fix the valve before begin installing the
system.
WARNING!
If this system is install in a metal (Conductive) plumbing system, i.c. copper or
galvanized metal, the plastic components of the system will interrupt the continuity of the
plumbing system. As a result, any arrant electricity from improperly grounded appliances
downstream or potential galvanic activity in the plumbing system can no longer ground
through contiguous metal plumbing. Some homes may have been built in accordance with
building codes, which actually encouraged the grounding of electrical appliances through
plumbing. A grounded “jumper wire” bridging the equipment and reestablishing the
contiguous conductive nature of the plumbing system must be installed prior to your system
use.
Note:
Although not required, we highly recommend installing a bypass before the system
install to help ensure there’s no downtime for water usage during repairs or replacement of
systems. See
Diagram A
for bypass installation examples.
Note:
Depending on the water flow direction, the media reset backwash port may be located
in the front or the rear of the system. See
Diagram B
for port direction examples.
