Note: Read this section entirely before starting installation. Follow all applicable plumbing and
electrical codes.
Installation Guidelines Cont’d
Bypass Valve Operation
Plumbing Connections Cont’d
•
Heat from soldering or solvents; may damage the nut,
split ring, o-ring or drain line flow control housing. Avoid
contact with solder, flux, primer, or solvents on any part
of the o-rings, split rings, bypass valve or control valve.
•
Remove the drain line flow control locking clip and
inspect flow control for appropriate size (refer to Parts
Diagram on pg 28 for proper size).
•
The drain line requires ½” I.D. size flexible tubing at a
minimum for model POE-5-1252. Installations with more
than a 20’ length line or models POE-7-1354 and POE-10-
1465 require ¾” rigid line for the drain.
•
Form a 7” loop at the discharge point if the drain line
elevates above the control valve at any point and then
empties at a level below the control valve. This is
intended to prevent a siphon.
•
Verify adequate pressure is available to run an elevated
drain line. At a height of 10’ above the floor 40-60 psi is
required with less than 30’ length line.
•
Allow for 4” air gap in drain line at discharge point.
Electrical Connection
•
A continuous 120 VAC, 60 Hz current is required. Be
certain the outlet is uninterrupted by a switch.

1. Normal Operating Position:
inlet and outlet handles point in the direction of the engraved arrows on the control valve.
Water flows through the treatment system in normal operating position
(Figure 1).
2. Bypass Position:
inlet and outlet handles point to the center of the bypass.
Raw water is delivered through plumbing lines with treatment system isolated
(Figure 2).
3. Diagnostic Position:
inlet handle points in the direction of engraved arrow on the control valve and the outlet handle
points to the center of the bypass.
Raw water is delivered through plumbing lines with treatment system supplied with water, but prevented from delivering
treated water through outlet
(Figure 3).
4. Shut Off Position:
inlet handle points to the center of the bypass and the outlet handle points in the direction of the
engraved arrow on the control valve.
Water is prevented from entering the treatment system or delivered through plumbing lines
(Figure 4).
