The water softening equipment must be installed behind the water pump,
hydrophore and pressure switch, and it is recommended to install a bypass valve
as shown in the scheme and valves for incoming and outgoing water!!!
In normal operation, the bypass valve is closed and the inlet and outlet taps are open. If the
equipment is undergoing preventive maintenance or needs to be repaired, it is possible to supply the
water directly to the consumers untreated. It is also recommended to install a sampling tap before
and after the equipment to determine the water quality of the untreated and freshly treated water. It
is also recommended to install manometers before and after the equipment to monitor the pressure
drop in the machine as well as the incoming water pressure.
3.3. Connecting to drain
The equipment requires a connection to the sewer to ensure regular flushing of the filtration media.
During flushing, the accumulated dirt is removed from the equipment as well as the reagent, with
the help of which the ability of the filter material to soften the water is restored. The sewer
connection point is located at the top of the control unit. A garden hose, which is included in the
unit's set, is used to drain the rinsing water from the unit to the common sewer system.
