LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
Consider all of the following when selecting an
installation location for the water softener.
Do not locate the water softener where freezing
temperatures occur. Do not attempt to treat
water over 120ºF.
Freezing temperatures or
hot water damage voids the warranty.
To condition all water in the home, install
the water softener close to the water supply
inlet, and upstream of all other plumbing
connections, except outside water pipes.
Outside faucets should remain on hard water
to avoid wasting conditioned water and salt.
A nearby drain is needed to carry away regeneration
discharge (drain) water. Use a floor drain,laundry
tub, sump, standpipe, or other options(check your
local codes). See “Air Gap Requirements” and
“Valve Drain Requirements”sections.
The water softener uses a direct plug-in external
power supply (included). Be sure to use the included
power supply and plug it into a nominal 120V, 60
cycle household outlet that is in a dry location only,
grounded and properly protected by an over current
device such as a circuit breaker or fuse.
Always install the water softener between
the water inlet and water heater. Any other
installed water conditioning equipment should
be installed between the water inlet and
water softener (See Figure below).
If installing the water softener outdoors, do
not locate where it will be exposed to wet
weather, direct sunlight, extreme hot or cold
temperatures, or other forms of abuse.
DO NOT RUN HOT WATER THROUGH THE
SOFTENER.
Temperature of water passing
through the softener must be less than 120° F.
Avoid installing in direct sunlight. Excessive
sun heat may cause distortion or other
damage to non-metallic parts.
When installing in an outside location you
must take steps necessary to assure the
softener, installation plumbing and wiring, are
protected from the elements, direct sunlight,
contamination, vandalism, insects, vermin, etc.
Do not install the softener where it would block
access to the water heater or access to the
main water shutoff.
