Connecting the Softener.
Once you have completed the installation of the valves set the valves as follows:
Softener Inlet and Outlet valve CLOSED
Bypass valve OPEN
You can now safely return the stop cock to the open position. Using the hoses provided (if
installation kit ordered) connect the straight end of the hose having first inserted the washer
provided to the softener inlet and outlet valves. Connect the angled end to the Softener. The
Softener inlets and outlets should be indicated either with the words inlet or outlet or with an
embossed directional arrow on the Softener tails. Normally the Softener tails are in a
configuration of three with the centre normally being the waste outlet.
Waste Pipe Installation.
Connect the waste pipe to the waste outlet on the Softener and run the hose to either an up
stand or outside drain, a minimum air gap of 20mm must exist at the end of the drain line.
Softened water will have no adverse effect on a septic tank. Should you need to extend the
drain hose this can be done by connecting to a 15mm copper tube for a maximum run of 8
meters with a minimum daytime pressure of 40 psi. Ensure that the drain hose is not kinked
or obstructed in any way as this will lead to an overflow of the softener. The drain pipe can
run uphill to a maximum of 1 Meter with a minimum water pressure of 40 psi.
