AUTOMATIC WATER SOFTENER
INSTALLATION STEPS
1. INSTALL BYPASS VALVE:
NOTE: be sure the turbine and support are firmly in
place, in the valve outlet. Blow into the valve port and
observe the turbine for free rotation.
³ Push the bypass valve (lubricate o-ring seals) into
both ports of the valve…Figures 1A and 1C.
³ Snap the two large plastic clips in place, from the top,
down...Figures 1A and 1B. Be sure they snap into
place. Pull on the adaptors, or bypass valve, to make
sure they held securely in place.
2. INSTALL THE BRINE TANK OVERFLOW
FITTINGS:
³ Insert the rubber grommet into the 3/4” diameter hole
in the brine tank sidewall...see page 9.
³ Push the barbed end of the hose adaptor elbow into
the grommet.
3. MOVE THE SOFTENER INTO INSTALLATION
POSITION:
³
Be sure the installation surface is level and smooth. If
needed, place the tank on a section of 3/4” thick (min.)
plywood. Then, place shims under the plywood as
needed to level the softener.
4. PLUMB IN AND OUT PIPES TO AND FROM
SOFTENER:
CAUTIONS: Observe all of the following cautions as you
connect inlet and outlet plumbing.
³ Turn off the house water supply valve and open
faucets to relieve pressure in the pipes.
³ BE SURE RAW, HARD WATER IS DIRECTED TO
THE VALVE INLET PORT.
³ Be sure to use bypass valve(s).
³ If making a soldered copper installation, do all sweat
soldering before connecting pipes to the softener
fittings. Torch heat will damage plastic parts.
