1. Place the softener where you want to install it, making sure it is on
a clean, level and firm base.
2. Do all necessary plumbing (inlet to inlet, outlet to outlet, and
drain line to drain). The control valve, fittings and/or bypass are
designed to accommodate minor plumbing misalignments but are
not designed to support the weight of a system or the plumbing.
3. When assembling the installation fitting package (inlet and outlet),
connect the fitting to the plumbing system first and then attach the
nut, split ring and o-ring. Heat from soldering or solvent cements
may damage the nut, split ring or o-ring. Solder joint should be cool
and solvent cements should be set before installing the nut, split
ring and o-ring. Avoid getting primer and solvent cement on any part
of the o-rings, split rings, bypass valve or control valve.
4. A jumper ground wire should be installed between the inlet
and outlet pipe whenever the metallic continuity of a water
distribution piping system is interrupted. Install grounding
strap on metal pipes.
(All electrical & plumbing should be done in accordance to all local codes)
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
5. The drain connection may be made using either 5/8” polytube (see below) or a 3/4” female adapter. The polytube insert
is shipped attached to the drain line elbow’s locking clip. Press the insert into the drain line tubing (tubing not provided).
Loosen the nut of the drain line elbow. Press the 5/8” polytube with insert into the drain line elbow until it seats on the back
of the fitting. Tighten the nut. If soldering, joints near the drain must be done prior to connecting the drain line flow control
fitting. Leave at least 6” between the drain line control fitting and solder joints when soldering pipes that are connected on
the drain line control fitting. Failure to do this could cause interior damage to the drain line flow control fitting. Never insert a
drain line into a drain, sewer line, or trap. Always allow an air gap between the drain line and the wastewater to prevent the
possibility of sewage being back-siphoned into the softener.
