Brine line connection
Mandatory
The brine line must be built with 3/8'' semi rigid piping !
Caution - material
Risk of malfunction due to the use of wrong equipment !
Flexible and semi-flexible hoses may shrink because of the vacuum during brine draw.
The brine line from the tank connects to the valve. Make the connections and hand tighten. Be
sure that the brine line is secure and free from air leaks. Even a small leak may cause the brine
line to drain out, and the softener will not draw brine from the tank. This may also introduce air
into the valve, causing problems with the valve operation.
Brine line must be equipped with brine tank air check in the brine tank.
